The Best Hobs

Hobs are available in different sizes and materials. The best hobs are durable elegant, stylish and easy to clean.

Gas hobs are preferred by our experts due to their versatility and precise control of flames. But, electric models provide superior energy efficiency and are easier to keep clean. Look for features like a timer or power boost that allow you to increase the heat quickly to accelerate cooking.

1. Hobs Induction

Induction hobs are an innovative and efficient alternative to traditional ceramic or gas models. Instead of heating the entire cooking zone as gas hobs do they utilize magnetic technology to warm the copper coils that are below the pans. The cooktop is cool to touch which makes it more secure to use and easier for cleaning. They boil more quickly than kettles and use less energy. They're now a common kitchen appliance in HelloFresh's test kitchen, Ovens uk and we love this elegant, premium model from AEG which comes with four cooking zones that have individually controlled functions as well as an efficient minute reminder. It is smooth and can be cleaned easily and is easy to operate by using the touch-sensitive control panels. However, one small issue (which is typical for all induction hobs) is that the heat distribution can be uneven, but this is only really noticeable when trying to stir-fry.

The AEG induction hob comes with a five-year guarantee and impressive green credentials; it has an A+ rating for energy efficiency and the lowest power consumption of 700w for each cooking zone. The 'Flux zone' feature allows you to move your pans around within the four zones and alter the power levels to fit your pans or pots and the 'Power Boost feature boosts the output by 50% to ensure rapid boiling. Other helpful features include an auto-shut off function as well as a 'fryingSensor' that prevents your pan from overheating, which means you do not need to worry about burning food.

This is an induction cooktop with a reasonable price that can be wired to a worktop or new one. The independently controlled cooking zones are clearly marked with a ring or cross to indicate where the centre of the coil lies beneath, while there's an easy-to-use control panel. It has a large "Flux zone" that can accommodate larger pots and pans effortlessly, and it's pre-programmed to have power levels set in the front and back zones. This is a great choice when cooking with a variety pans of various shapes and sizes that need to be heated up, simmered at the same time, and kept warm.

2. Gas Hobs

Gas hobs (or gas cooktops, if you are American) remain the best choice to cook in your kitchen. They are the best choice for boiling water boiling soups and sauces, simmering them, frying eggs and pan-frying meats. Their popularity is due the fact that they can quickly and accurately create high heat levels which makes them ideal for boiling and searing.

The flame's visual indicator allows you to see the status of every burner in one glance, which is useful for security reasons. It's much harder to forget about leaving the burner on, or to switch it off by accident as it is with an electric hob.

The majority of models are also constructed with a flat surface which makes them less difficult to clean than their ceramic counterparts. There is no material that can shield the Neff T27DS59N0 from splashes and spills. You'll need to remain vigilant in cleaning to prevent the Neff T27DS59N0 from getting stained over time.

Gas hobs are more energy efficient than their induction counterparts, as they heat up faster and evenly, reducing energy costs. This is particularly true with vented hobs that combine two appliances and remove the need for an Hood. This will save space in your kitchen and create a sleeker look that will be a perfect fit with any style of interior.

Many homeowners prefer gas hobs with freestanding design over built-in models due to their efficiency and convenience. They are less difficult to install, and offer more flexibility in the event that you want to create a a minimalistic kitchen look.

A freestanding model is connected to a bottle of liquid petroleum gas (LPG) to offer a renewable energy source. This is a great option for those who you want to go green. However, you'll need to be able to locate an appropriate LPG stove and boiler before this becomes an option for you. These models require a gas supply, ventilation, and regular maintenance to ensure that there are no leaks.

3. Sealed Plate Hobs

If you're seeking an energy-efficient and sleek option an induction cooker is the best way to go. Induction hobs utilize electromagnetic fields to heat your pots and pans directly while the ceramic surface of the hob stays cool. This makes induction hobs more secure (no accidental burns!) Induction hobs are less dangerous (no accidental burns!) and more efficient since they consume less energy than their counterparts made of electrical or gas. However, the drawback of induction hobs is that they are expensive to purchase and you'll need to invest in an induction-compatible set of cookware.

If you don't wish to invest in the latest induction technology, ceramic hobs offer a good alternative. These sleek and stylish hobs are made of a smooth glass top with hidden heating elements. They're more visually pleasing and easier to clean than solid plate hobs, since they don't require difficult scouring. They are more efficient in heating and are more responsive than solid-plate hobs. They don't have the same efficiency as induction hobs. Therefore, they are not an ideal choice if you are concerned about your energy usage.

Solid plate hobs, which are a affordable option, with their simple and reliable design, are perfect for cooking at home. They're easy to heat up, making them a good choice for those who do not require a large cooktop. However, they may take a long time to cool. Solid plate hobs also emit lots of heat, making them not as energy-efficient as other options on this list.

We recommend looking for reviews on websites of retailers if you are considering a solid-plate hob. This will not only provide you with an accurate view of the performance of the model and will assist you in finding one that is right for your home. For example, this Neff CSPHOBX15 Electric Solid Plate Hob from Currys has been highly rated by customers and is finished in long-lasting stainless steel. The black controls go well with other kitchen appliances, giving it a an elegant and minimalist look.

4. Electric Hobs

While gas hobs are a popular option for cooks due to their quick heat and simple control, electric hobs are more energy efficient. Modern electric ceramic and induction stoves offer advanced cooking functions like power up settings and temperature control. They're an excellent choice for busy households.

Find an electric hob that has an elegant design and has control buttons that are touch-sensitive. Avoid hobs with dials or buttons that protrude. This makes them less difficult to clean, particularly if you opt for flat surfaces that don't chip or scratch. For security, opt for a model with child locks, hot indicators and residual heat shut-offs that will prevent accidents. If you have an intelligent home, opt for an electronic display that gives you control of your hob remotely and also notifications via your smartphone, ensuring you can control your hob easily.

For maximum flexibility, think about a dual fuel stove that has gas and induction burners. The FH-IC7020 from FUJIOH has both. It has intuitive touchscreen controls for induction zones and sturdy cast iron pan supports that support traditional gas cooking. It also has a timer feature, which allows you to set specific cooking times for meals so they're ready for use when needed and reduces the risk of overcooking and making food less delicious.

For added convenience, a model with two separate zones for cooking pans of different shapes and sizes could be the best choice. This can help save space and can be beneficial when cooking with large rectangular vessels, such as roasting pans. Additionally, some stoves offer the option to add induction plates or teppanyaki grills for additional cooking options.

Gas hobs can be found in different prices, ranging from as low as PS100 to top-of-the-line models that cost up to PS1,000. But a basic four-zone ceramic or an induction hob from a major brand should cost not more than PS200. If you're looking for an elegant glass model it shouldn't break the bank too, since there are excellent own-brand options. Be aware that both ceramic and induction hobs need a specific supply that is plugged in with the correct breakers and cables so you'll have to have it installed by a certified electrician.
