The best hob Hobs

Hobs are available in a variety of materials and sizes. The best oven uk hobs are durable, stylish and easy to clean.

Our experts recommend gas hobs because of their precise flame control and flexibility. Electric models are more efficient and are easier to clean. Look for features like power boost and timer which allow you to increase the heat quickly to accelerate cooking.

1. Hobs Induction

Induction hobs are a modern and efficient alternative to traditional ceramic or gas models. Instead of heating the entire cooking space as do gas hobs they utilize magnetic technology to only warm the copper coils that are below the pans. The cooktop is cool to touch and is therefore safer to use and simpler to clean. They are able to boil water faster than kettles and require less power. They're now a common kitchen appliance in HelloFresh's test kitchen and we love this elegant, premium model from AEG which boasts four cooking zones with individually controlled functions as well as an efficient minute timer. The smooth surface is easy to clean and the touch control panels are easy to use. However, the heat distribution is uneven. This is a common complaint for all induction hobs.

The AEG induction cooker comes with a five-year guarantee and impressive green credentials. It has an A+ energy rating with a low power consumption of 750w for each cooking zone. The "Flux zone" feature allows the pans to be moved around within the four zones and alter their power levels to suit your pots or pans as well as the 'PowerBoost' function increases the output by 50% for rapid boiling. The auto-shutoff function as well as the 'fryingSensor' that prevents overheating of your pan are also helpful features.

This is an induction hob with a low price tag that can be hardwired to a kitchen worktop or a new one. The cooking zones that are independently controlled are clearly identified with an arrow or cross to show you which side of the coil is beneath it, and there's also an easy-to-use control panel. It has a large "Flux zone" that can accommodate larger pots and pans with ease and is pre-programmed so that you have set power levels in the front and back zones. This is a great choice when cooking using a variety of pans, all different dimensions and shapes that require to be heated and simmered at the exact while being kept warm.

2. Gas Hobs

A gas hob (or gas cooktop for those who are American) remains the most popular choice in kitchen cooking. These are the ultimate go-to for boiling water simmering sauces and soups as well as pan-frying eggs and frying meats. Their popularity is due to their ability to produce high levels of heat quickly and precisely, which makes them ideal for boiling and searing.

The flame indicator's visual display makes it easy to determine the status of each burner at an instant. This is very useful to ensure security. It's much harder to forget to turn off a burner on, or to switch it off by accident when compared to an electric hob.

The majority of models have a flat surface that makes them less difficult to maintain than their ceramic counterparts. That said, it seems that there's no material that can stop spills and splashes completely, so you'll need to be on top of cleaning duties to prevent the Neff T27DS59N0 from becoming blemished over time.

Gas hobs are also more energy efficient than induction cousins because they are able to heat faster and more evenly, thus reducing the cost of electricity. This is especially true with vented stoves, which incorporate the two appliances into one unit and eliminate the requirement for vent hoods. This can free up space in your kitchen and give it a sleeker look that will be a perfect fit with any interior style.

Because of their efficiency and their ease of use, a lot of home owners prefer to go for freestanding gas hobs instead of built-in models. They are more straightforward to install and offer greater flexibility if you're trying to create a minimalist design for your kitchen.

Another benefit of going for an independent model is the ability to connect it to the bottle of liquid petroleum gas (LPG), which provides an alternative energy source for you're looking for a more sustainable alternative. However, you'll need be able to locate a suitable LPG stove and boiler before this option becomes a possibility for you. These models require gas supply as well as a ventilation system, and regular maintenance to ensure there are no leaks.

3. Hobs with Sealed Plates

Induction hobs are the ideal option if you want a sleek, energy-efficient appliance. These hobs use electromagnetic fields to heat your pots and pans directly while the ceramic-ceramic glass surface keeps it cool. This makes induction hobs safer (no accidental burns!) and more efficient, as they use less power than their electric or gas counterparts. Induction hobs can be costly and you will need to invest in induction-compatible cookware.

Ceramic hobs are a great alternative for those who don't want to invest in the Induction technology. These stylish and sleek hobs are made of a smooth glass top with hidden heating elements. They are more aesthetically appealing and easy to clean than solid plate hobs since they don't require difficult scouring. They heat up faster and are more responsive than solid-plate hobs. However, they do lag behind induction hobs when it regards energy efficiency, so if you're conscious of your energy consumption this might not be the right choice for you.

Solid plate hobs, the low-cost option with their basic and sturdy design, are perfect for cooking in the everyday. They are quick to get hot, making them a good choice for those who don't require a powerful cooktop. However, they do take ages to cool down. Solid plate hobs also emit a lot of residual heat, which means they're not as efficient like the other choices on this list.

If you're thinking of buying a sturdy plate hob, we recommend choosing one that's been reviewed by customers on retailers websites. Not only will this provide you with an honest view into how it performs, but it will also help you to find the right model for your home. Customers have rated this Neff CSPHOBX15 Solid Plate Electric Hob from Currys high marks and it is finished in durable stainless steel. The black controls go well with other kitchen appliances, giving it a an elegant and minimalist look.

4. Electric Hobs

While gas hobs are a popular choice for many cooks due to their instant heating and easy to control, electric models offer the benefit of being more energy efficient. Also, with modern electric ceramic and induction stoves that come with advanced cooking features, such as power boost settings and precise temperature control, they're a fantastic choice for busy households.

When choosing an electric hob, look for one that has a sleek design with touch controls, and no dials or buttons sticking out. They are more easy to clean when they have a smooth surface that doesn't scratch or chip. Make sure you choose a model that comes with child locks and hot indicator lights and residual heat shutoffs to prevent accidents. And, if you have an intelligent home, opt for an electronic display that gives you a remote control and alerts via your smartphone, ensuring you can control your hob easily.

For ultimate flexibility, consider a dual fuel hob with induction and gas burners. FUJIOH's FH-IC7020 hybrid hob comes with both, and has intuitive touchscreen controls for the induction zones, and hard-wearing cast iron pan supports for traditional gas cooking. There's also a timer that allows you to set specific cooking times for meals so they're ready when you need them which reduces the chance of cooking too long and making food less tasty.

To make cooking more convenient for added convenience, a kitchen appliance with two separate cooking pans of various shapes and sizes could be the best Hob choice. This can save space and can be beneficial when cooking with large rectangular vessels like roasting pans. Additionally, some stoves offer the option of adding induction plates or teppanyaki grills as extra cooking options.

You'll find cheap own-brand gas hobs starting at PS100 and higher-end models that cost upwards of PS1,000. A basic four-zone ceramic stove or an induction model from a major brand will not cost more than PS200. If you prefer glass models there are a variety of excellent options available from manufacturers who manufacture their own brands. However, bear in mind that both ceramic and induction hobs require a specific supply configured with the right breakers and cables so you'll need to get it installed by a licensed electrician.
