How to Choose the Best Hobs
A hob is a must-have kitchen appliance, but which you pick is contingent on your cooking habits and budget. Gas hobs warm up quickly and provide precise temperature control, while electric hobs are less expensive but take a bit longer to warm up.
To make cleaning easier, look for models with dishwasher-safe supports. It is recommended to choose a cooker that has nine power levels so that you can select the right setting for your food.
3. CDA DH702Z Induction Hob
There are a variety of styles of hobs that you can choose from. But it's not all about fashion - the function of a kitchen appliance can be the difference between a successful or unsuccessful cooking experience. Our CDA range of hobs has features that will allow you relax and enjoy your mealtimes, whether you are an experienced chef or just beginning your journey.
Gas Hobs
Gas hobs have been a favourite of amateur and professional cooks for many years, thanks to their visible heat and ease of control. The heat is also distributed more evenly, making cooking more enjoyable. Their efficiency isn't quite as effective as other types of hobs and they may take longer to get hot. They also require professional installation, and proper ventilation in the kitchen to eliminate combustion fumes.
Electric Hobs (Coil & Smooth-Top)
Electric hobs heat your cookware with an induction plate that is usually faster and more efficient than gas hobs. They produce less harmful emissions and are also easier to clean. However they don't have the similar flame-cooked appeal and may be incompatible with homes that have children or those with medical equipment such as pacemakers.
The Siemens IQ-500 EP9A6SB90 is a sleek and modern gas hob that has five burners and plenty of space for all manner of pots and pans including a wok burner that is perfect for stir fries and other Asian-inspired dishes. It has a host of features that are user-friendly, such as a convenient Quick Start function that shows the burning source on the display panel (and can hobs oven be programmed to shut off at certain time intervals). It also has a pause-and-start feature to temporarily stop cooking and then resume it later.
