“I bought a wireless electric kettle over the internet and to my surprise it came with a cord to plug into the outlet. Where's the wireless they advertise?”

 

In fact, they say in the announcement (all) that the jar or kettle is cordless in the sense that there is no connecting wire between the base and the kettle itself, the electrical contact being made directly to transfer the energy to the resistive element. So, this is not a wireless energy transmission as you would expect, meaning that the base may be in your sink and the kettle on your table and it gets hot. No, it just means that the kettle has a contact wire with the base that transfers the energy to its heating element. One could contest the way the ad is made, causing a false impression, but no one has done so yet and the term "wireless" remains in the ads.
