Hobs

An induction hob uses electric coils underneath the cooktop to heat pots and pans directly, rather than heating the surface. This makes it faster, more energy-efficient, and safer since the cooktop stays cool while cooking. The heat is only generated where the pan sits, giving you precise control over cooking temperatures and making it easy to clean since spills don’t burn onto the surface. Please note these hobs require a pan set with a magnetic base.

A ceramic hob is a smooth, flat cooktop that uses electric heating elements beneath the surface to heat your pots and pans. It heats up quickly and provides even, consistent heat for cooking. The smooth surface makes it easy to clean, as spills can be wiped away once the hob cools down, offering a sleek and modern look for your kitchen.

A gas hob is a cooktop that uses gas burners to heat your pots and pans. The flames give you instant and adjustable heat, making it easy to cook quickly and precisely. Gas hobs are popular for their responsiveness and even cooking, and they’re easy to clean, with burners that can be wiped down once they’ve cooled.

A vented hob is a cooktop that has a built-in extractor fan to remove smoke, steam, and cooking odours directly from the cooking area as you prepare your meals. This means you don’t need a separate cooker hood, making it a great space-saving solution. It’s perfect for keeping your kitchen air fresh while you cook, especially in open-plan or smaller kitchens.
