Product Information

If you’re choosing gas, place it away from a window as any draughts can extinguish flames. It is also dangerour to lean over any hob to open a window. Getting A Good Deal

A hob is a very important appliance – explore all your options before buying your next one. You want one that will look right in your kitchen, heat up your food efficiently, and give you the flexibility to easily control heat intensity. There is also such a thing as Flexi Induction hobs now. Rather than being limited to four or five zones, you are free to use any size you need, so cooking with woks or griddles is made so much easier and you have the freedom to be fully creative. Cleaning is easy enough thanks to the removable pan supports and stainless steel finish. Should your pan of water boil over or your sauce splash as it starts to rapidly heat, just wait for it all to cool down then wipe with a damp cloth. If you have a compatible cooker hood, the Hob2Hood feature means you can switch on your hood without lifting a finger. The hob turning on will also switch the fan and light on, and if you turn the heat up, the power of the fan will increase in accordance. Sliding controls give you an incredibly modern experience. Using the touch screen, simply turn the chosen hob on and then turn up the heat. Reducing the temperature is easy when the time comes, too. It can also detect a pan when in place, so if you just press the temperature control, it knows that’s the one to turn on.

Why Use a Wok Instead of a Frying Pan?

Offering precise and flexible cooking results, this induction hob from Samsung is incredibly powerful and very well suited to people of any cooking level. While there are four cooking zones, one of these is an extra large rectangular space. It is split into two but designed to accommodate larger pans or grill devices. Both sections can be used simultaneously. No more having to centralise foods in the pan to get the heat or cook in batches. You can control each burner via a clear, easy to adjust dial, and the settings are easy to read so there is no guessing involved. The residual heat indicator lets you know when they are still too hot to touch or clean. When the time to clean it does come, it is easy to wipe down as everything is flat. We also loved the Keep Warm option, which will regulate the temperature of your food so it doesn’t cook further but is kept hot until ready. And if you feel you’ll miss the glow of the gas flame, Virtual Flame Technology™ uses LEDs to reproduce a real gas glow – a nice little extra touch. Not only are they well-spaced, but the stable pan supports will ensure they all remain firmly in place, so there are no accidents. There is a free choice of heat settings, so if you like to have full flexibility and control over your creations, then the flame will respond to your adjustments.

Just tap the dedicated Bridge button, and they will share the same temperature settings without you having to fine-tune yet again. Each single hob space will also adapt to the size of your pan, so whether you’re boiling some peas in a milk pan or got a frying pan on the go, MaxiSense will automatically adjust to fit the base.They also work a bit differently to other options. The actual hob surface doesn’t heat up, but rather the base of the pan thanks to magnetism technology. You could even be boiling water faster than with a kettle! It makes it a very energy efficient option as no heat is wasted, and the risk of burns or heat damage is reduced. Four burners or cooking zones is the norm, but some models have up to eight. A popular addition for many gas models is an extra large wok burner, usually situated in the centre of the space, which is perfect if you often make stir fries and other dedicated cuisines. verifyErrors }}{{ message }}{{ /verifyErrors }}{{ One of the more pricey induction hobs on our list, but at the end of the day you’re making an investment.
