4 Burner Gas Hobs

Get your pans sizzling away with a 4-burner gas hob from AO

Whether you’re a pro in the making or you just like quick cooking, a 4-burner gas hob is ideal. Gas is known for being responsive with instant heat – there’s a reason they’re in loads of restaurants. And 4 burners give you enough space and variety for a few pans on the go without taking up half your kitchen. If saving space is a top priority, look out for a 60cm gas hob as it’ll give you all the same benefits with a smaller footprint.

Our favourite features

As gas hobs cook with a flame, you’ll be glad to know they come with safety features to make sure you’re always in control. Look out for automatic ignition which lights up straight away without needing a match and flame failure devices that cut off the gas if the flame goes out for any reason. Cast iron pan supports keep your pots stable while you’re cooking away without a care and wok burners that are perfect for stir fries. If you’re after something really sleek, look out for gas-through-glass models, which give you the chic ceramic surface with the power of gas burners.

Look after your new hob

Get your hob installed by a qualified gas-safe engineer and check for any leaks using a soap-water solution. Then, keep on top of everything by cleaning every time you cook, check the burners and igniters every few months, and if there’s an uneven flame or ignition issue, look for blockages. For any persistent issues, there’s advice in the manual or contact our team or the manufacturer for more help.
