Nobody wants to spend ages tackling spills after cooking for the family. That's where the Samsung Series 5 comes in. Induction tech heats the pan rather than the hob surface, so splashes and spills are less likely to get baked on. And thanks to the sleek glass design, there’re no burners or pan supports in the way, so keeping it spotless is as simple as a quick wipe.
