Best Premium Induction Hobs

Create incredible dishes easily with this induction hob from Siemens. Its 5 zones use intelligent electromagnets to directly heat the base of your pan rather than the whole surface, so energy isn’t wasted. Clever pan detection technology only sends heat when it senses a pot has been placed on top too, for much safer cooking. For bigger dishes, the FlexInduction Zone lets you merge zones to create a larger cooking area – perfect for teppanyaki grills. And, if you need to get the rice bubbling before the chicken’s done, just flick on the PowerBoost mode for an added burst of energy, guaranteed to reduce your cooking time.

Make a statement in your kitchen with this black Elica electric hob. Its 4 zones provide plenty of space to cook, and because they use induction technology, electromagnets will heat the base of your pans rather than the whole surface, for more efficient results. If you’re experimenting with a new Pad Thai recipe for the whole family, the flexible cooking zones let you transform 2 rings into 1 bigger one, making room for larger pots. Plus, thanks to the built-in downdraft cooker hood, fumes are pulled down into the hob and out of the air around you, leaving your kitchen smelling fresh after every dish. Clever sensors monitor the environment too, automatically adjusting the extraction settings when needed, so you barely have to lift a finger.

This stunning Samsung electric hob would be a superb centrepiece to your kitchen. It has 4 induction zones that use electromagnets to directly heat the base of your pans rather than the hob, for more efficient cooking. And, thanks to clever pan detection, it only gets hot when you’ve placed your cookware on the surface. When you’re using a wok or frying pan, the large Flex Zone Plus area has plenty of space for big dishes. It can also detect when you’re using a few smaller pots and will just heat the parts of the hob you need, for flexible cooking. You’ll easily see the temperature at a glance too, as the main circular zone has innovative Virtual Flame Technology™, which uses LEDs to reproduce a real gas glow.

Get creative in the kitchen with this mixed fuel hob from Smeg. Its 4 induction zones use electromagnets to heat your pans directly, and the gas burner is great for traditional cooking too. You can start preparing your delicious dish in no time, as the automatic ignition provides powerful heat in no time. It’s incredibly safe too, as the brilliant pan detection feature will only start heating the hob once your cookware has been placed onto your chosen zone. The bridge function allows you to merge zones to create one large area as well – great if you’re creating large meals for a dinner party.

This unique induction hob from Neff is perfect for minimalists who love contemporary design. It has 4 induction zones, which use special electromagnets to heat what’s in your pan, rather than wasting energy heating the whole surface. You can combine two of the zones to create a larger cooking area too, giving you extra space for things like trays and casserole dishes. But the pièce de résistance is the ultra-modern downdraft cooker hood that sits neatly at the centre of the hob. So, not only is it a great space-saver, but you won’t have to fork out for a separate hood either. It even comes with an AutoOn function, meaning the ventilation system will kick in as soon as the sensors detect steam.
