Which one is a best type of hob for your kitchen?

There are five types of hobs: electric, ceramic, gas, induction, and domino. Here are some tips to help you decide which hob is best to buy for your kitchen.

Tips to help you decide which hob to choose for your kitchen

Electric and gas hobs are the two classic types of hobs. Electric hobs take one to two minutes to heat up, while gas hobs heat up instantly through a flame. The cooking elements of an electric hob are called cooking zones. There are four to six cooking zones, but the more cooking zones, the higher the price. Different types of fryers have different-sized cooking zones, and the temperature of each cooking zone can be set individually.

Advantages

  • Power boost feature reduces cooking time
  • Child safety lock
  • Individual control of 4 or more cooking zones

Induction hob

Induction hobs are similar in design and touch sensitivity to ceramic hobs, but their cooking is unique. When you place a pot or pan on an induction hob, all the heat is generated in the cooking vessel. Your cookware gets heated, but the hob itself does not. Spills will not burn on the hob surface. There will still be some residual heat in the cooking area when the power is switched off, but not as much as on a ceramic or electric hob, and the hob cools down more quickly. Induction hobs are, therefore, a better choice. This makes induction cooktops a safer device in the kitchen.

Advantages

  • The cooker generates heat and is therefore more efficient
  • Heats up quickly with low waste heat output
  • Touch-sensitive and elegant

Ceramic hobs

With four or five cooking zones, ceramic hobs look elegant with their ‘flat,’ frameless design that blends in with the worktop. The flat design of the ceramic hob depends on whether you choose traditional rotary heat control knobs or modern touch control knobs or buttons. This design makes ceramic hobs deficient maintenance and easy to clean.

The low maintenance cost of this hob is balanced with style and convenience and offers a wide range of models and sizes to bring endless possibilities to your kitchen.

Advantages

  • Elegant and stylish appearance
  • Easy to clean
  • Low maintenance

Gas Hob

We offer various gas hobs in different designs with 4 to 6 burners. They are very easy to use and are best suited to direct heating. Most homes in the UK do not have a gas connection, but the manufacturer now offers a conversion kit that can convert the model to LPG, which is used in most homes. Ensure the installer is gas-certified and your cooker can be converted to LPG.

Gas hobs come with different types of burners: economy, semi-rapid, and wok. The different types and settings depend on the model you choose. Economy burners are less efficient and smaller, making them more energy-efficient and better for cooking food. Semi-fast and fast burners have medium and high power and are best suited for boiling water.

Burners can be made of metal, glass, or enamel, depending on which material suits your kitchen best. Gas hobs have several advantages:

Advantages

  • The heating system is more efficient.
  • The cooling is faster.
  • You have the freedom to choose the size of the burner.
  • The most suitable hob for direct heating
  • Numerous safety features, such as flame protection
  • You can choose between different controls and hob surfaces
