I am just so disappointed with this hob. Always loved Zanussi products, but this hob does not come up to expected standard. I have cooked stir fries (on hottest ring P setting) Ultimately it's fine for a couple of minutes then appears to turn itself to a lower setting ending with 'stewed' stir fries!!! If I use more than two areas at once, the power drops. Tried to phone Zanussi, but was left on the phone for 25 minutes. This is my 3rd induction hob over the years, (various manufacturers) and I am sad to say the worst one.

The Zanussi ZIFN844K Induction Hob is a very sleek, easy and efficient to use and well performing professional hob. This is my first time owning and using an induction hob, I had some reservations about how different, better or worse it would perform vs a traditional gas hob and I am pleased to report that it is significantly better in all areas. Firstly the unit heats up very quickly, and even has a PowerBoost mode to make each zone heat quicker, which is just amazing, it is also so slick looking and important to me it is very easy to clean with no buttons or knobs thanks to it’s fully automated touch controls. The performance was excellent, it exceeded my expectations when compared to my old gas hob, and the auto power cut off timer function is so useful and it is so very quiet as well. I Like the fact that if you own a compatible extractor, the hob can even control that too based on its function mode and this is something that I have already purchased and it also features a dual zone allowing you to use wider pans with the hob extending its heating zone to accommodate the wider panels. The design has it all covered, it is truly a joy to cook with and to use, and best of all it looks stunning in my new kitchen. An added and extra bonus is the cooking time with the induction hob, it is a lot faster and it will therefore save money on the ever increasing electric bills. I really like that. What I did not like is the cost of the induction ready pans, these are a lot more expensive, but they are good quality and will last a very long time. It is just a note to those buying this excellent hob, that it needs special induction pans, and these come at a higher cost than normal pans. Aside from that I cannot recommend it enough.

Delighted with the hob, looks great now it is installed, heats pans up extremely quickly and is so controllable unlike our previous ceramic hob.

Have only had fitted for a couple of days but so pleased with it. Fitted easily and looks amazing. Have fitted it over a set of 800w drawers for the pans and finishes of the new island well. Love the touch button facility makes it so easy to use and clean. Highly recommended.

Love these induction jobs. Very quick commands and cooks throughout compared to cheaper ones I've had before

It’s more expensive than other hobs but I liked the look of it and also bought the cooker hood to use the hob to hood (although not used that part yet as just had kitchen refit so not connected up yet!) Love the fact there are no knobs and just changed by touch, so looks very modern. Like the timer function on it as my husband often had a habit of forgetting to turn our old one off! Much better than my old ceramic one in that the heat is adjusted much better and quicker. Being able to join the zones is very handy when I’m using my big Stockpots. Hoping that over time the glass surface doesn’t get scratched but I’m going to buy new pots/pans to prevent that. Pleased with it so far, look forward to getting more use out of it.

Does the job. Good value for money. Flexible layout for differing requirements. Very happy with it
