Best Premium Induction Hobs

Bring your favourite recipes to life with this silver De Dietrich electric hob. It has 4 induction zones which use electromagnets to directly target the base of your saucepans, rather than the whole surface, so no heat will escape round the sides. Plus, clever pan detection senses when a pot has been placed on top, and will only warm up when it recognises one, so it’s super-safe and really efficient. Thanks to HoriZone, you can even combine zones to create bigger ones - great for accommodating your bulkier cookware. And, for even more economical cooking, the ICS function recognises your pan size and recommends which zone is best suited to it, so no energy is wasted.

Mealtimes are a breeze with this induction job from Smeg. It has 4 zones that use clever electromagnets that detect and heat your pots only when they touch the surface, making it super-safe. And the Pan Detection technology only heats up the pots and not the hob’s surface, so that you can save energy as you prepare lunch or dinner. The Venting Cooktop is handy too, as this built-in downdraft cooker hood pulls down fumes from the air for a fresh-smelling kitchen. Plus, you can easily make curry for the family thanks to the Extendable Cooking Zone that lets you combine two rings into a bigger one – giving you ample space for larger pans.

Breathe new life into old recipes with this electric hob from AEG. The 4 induction zones use clever electromagnets to heat your pans instead of the surface of the hob, to make your mealtimes more efficient. It only begins heating up when the pan detection feature senses your cookware on top, so you’ll never accidentally turn on a cooking zone. The PowerBoost function is great for cooking in a hurry, as it quickly heats the hob to its highest setting before lowering the temperature to your chosen setting. You can even connect it to a compatible cooker hood with the Hob2Hood feature, which will start extracting automatically whilst you’re creating your delicious dishes.

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.

Get creative in the kitchen with this sleek induction hob from Neff. It has 5 zones, with electromagnets that send heat directly to your pan, rather than the whole surface, for more efficient cooking. Thanks to the CombiZone feature, which lets you combine two zones to make one bigger one, you’ll have plenty of room to prepare larger dishes at once. There’s even a powerMove feature that splits this larger zone into four smaller ones, each with a different heat. This means you can slide your pot back and forth, giving you precise control over your cooking. And, if you need to put them on pause for a bit, the handy ReStart function will save the settings for when you’re ready to get going again.
