Ceramic hobs have a sleek, modern appearance and is relatively easy to warm up and clean. There are a variety of styles to choose from, including ultra-sleek, flat, and traditional shapes such as squares and rectangles. They are easy to clean after use due to their flat surface.

Another downside of a ceramic hob is that it takes longer than induction or gas hobs to cool down. This can be a problem if you are working in a packed kitchen or need to swiftly switch between cooking zones to another. However there are many manufacturers who have worked on this issue and have now launched various hobs oven that can reduce their cooling time by up to 30 percent.

Hobs induction

Induction Hobs

Induction hobs have become an increasingly popular choice for kitchen remodeling. They are a stylish alternative to traditional gas cooktops. The pan is heated instead of the ceramic or glass surface. This means that they consume less energy and makes them safer to use. They also cool down more quickly than traditional hobs, which means they're easier to clean.

In the smooth, glossy glass/ceramic surfaces of an induction hob are copper coils through which an alternating electrical current runs through. When a suitable pan is placed on the cooking area, the coils instantly generate heat through magnetic induction. It is easier to cook because the pan doesn't lose heat.

There's an induction stove that is a good fit for your style. If you're looking for something that's easy to use, you can opt for a model with a touchscreen display showing the pan's position within each of its zones. You can then tap on the display to open the menu for operation that is extensive and change the power setting or the timer.

We suggest you choose a high-end induction cooker that includes an extractor. It removes smoke, steam and odours from the air while you cook, which means it can be used with a greater choice of cookerware. Choose a model with dual flex zones. This lets you connect two zones on the left to accommodate larger pots.

It is still recommended to make use of a non-abrasive cleaning product or scrubbing pad for removing food residues that have been burned and avoid abrasive cleansers which could scratch the ceramic surface.

Electric Hobs

Modern and practical electric hobs are a popular feature in many modern kitchens. Their sleek design allows them to blend seamlessly into most decors, and their efficient heating makes them an ideal option for busy households.

Electric hobs unlike gas hobs, do not have the flame. Instead, they utilize an element that is able to rise through ceramic glass to heat food directly. They are also less expensive to run, as they can be shut off when not in use - saving your money on energy bills.

It's important to remember that not all hobs come with the same features. Certain hobs are more sophisticated and include features such as automatic safety shutdown, a digital display, that clearly displays the temperature and power levels and cooking time. Some models also have the ability to boost the speed of the element for more power.

Another benefit of having an electric hob is its flat surface, which makes it easier to clean than a traditional gas model. Spills and splatters are easily cleaned away without the need to scrub the grates. This means your hob will last longer.
