Beware if not fitting over a 900mm base unit.
3/5
On the positive side, this is a stunning product and should be considerably easier to keep clean than the Electrolux hob it replaced.
However the technical details published by the manufacturer are incorrect. The documents state that the minimum worktop thickness that this hob can be fitted into is 30mm. This is ONLY true if fitted over a 900mm base unit. Our hob was installed over a range of 600mm units and in this configuration, the only way the hob can be installed as intended is if the worktop is at least 38mm thick. Since our Silestone worktop is 30mm thick, it has been necessary to fit the hob more prominently that intended - although we had no option as it is only AEG hobs that share the same cutout size as the hob being replaced. If you have a worktop less than 38-40mm thick, beware, you may find the same problem.
