Which Oven Hob Is Right For Your Kitchen?

Oven hobs are the heart of any kitchen and there are numerous options available. We have a variety of cooking rings ranging from four to six. Some are equipped with additional features like pan supports.

They heat up and cool down quickly with a uniform cooking surface temperature. Often favoured by professional chefs and are easy to control.

Gas Hobs

Gas hobs are a very popular choice. They have burner rings and grates that pots and saucepans rest on. They are quick to heat up and offer precise temperature control. They can handle a broad range of cooking methods from boiling water to cooking food. Gas hobs are generally less expensive than electric ones since they are powered by a natural gas source.

They are available in various finishes, including ceramic glass, stainless steel and more. These finishes give them a sleek and modern aesthetic that can be a perfect match for any kitchen design. They can be prone for scratching and scorching which is why you must be extra careful when cleaning them.

Regular cleaning will help keep your kitchen appliance in perfect condition. This is especially important if you own an older style freestanding model. To get a more thorough clean, you can take off the grates and burner caps. Soak them in warm soapy tap water and gently scrub. Alternately, you can make a mild baking soda paste and use it to get rid of tough stains without harming the surface.

Contrary to traditional gas stoves which are appliances that stand on their own, built-in gas hobs can be integrated into the countertop of the kitchen and provide a seamless appearance. They can also be placed on a stand-alone base, making them simple to move in case you move home or change the layout of your kitchen. Gas hobs need a lot of work and professional installation in order to be installed in your kitchen.

Gas hobs are available in a variety of finishes. From traditional white and black to the modern glossy glass, they come in many different styles. Some are even available in a stunning blue or green colour to add a splash of character to your kitchen.

Gas hobs are a safe and reliable choice that has been used for a long time. Gas hobs are energy efficient and provide precise temperature control and evenly distributed heat. However, it is important to practice proper ventilation ovens and hobs follow safety guidelines to avoid accidents.

Gas hobs also feature a flame failure mechanism that shuts off the gas when the flame goes out. This can prevent accidental explosions or burns.

Ceramic Hobs

Ceramic hobs have a sleek and modern look. They are also easy to clean and heat up. There are many designs to choose from, including ultra-sleek, flat and traditional shapes like squares and rectangles. They are easy to clean after use because of their flat surface. They also come with residual heat indicators that turn off the zone if it is too hot to touch. This can reduce the risk of burns, and is especially useful if your children are young.

However, the flat surface of a ceramic hob could be prone to scratches and chips. This is a particular issue when you drag pans across it, rather than lifting them up by their handles. Therefore, we suggest being extra careful when handling and moving cookware onto and off the hob. We also recommend against using metal or magnetic cookware on a ceramic cooktop as this can damage the surface.

Another downside of a ceramic hob is that it takes longer than gas or induction to cool down. This can be problematic if you're working in a packed kitchen or need to swiftly switch from one cooking zone to another. However there are many manufacturers who have worked on this issue and have now launched various hobs that can cut down on their cooling time by up to 30%.

Hobs Induction

Induction hobs heat up the fastest and are the most efficient option available. Induction hobs are extremely hygienic, safe and don't retain any heat on the cooking zone. However they can be costly.

Induction Hobs

A popular option for kitchen upgrades Induction hobs offer a fashionable alternative to traditional gas cooktops. The pan is heated and not the ceramic/glass surface. This means that they consume less energy and makes them safer to use. They also cool down faster than traditional hobs, meaning they're easier to keep clean.

Beneath the shiny, smooth glass/ceramic surface of an induction cooker are copper coils which an electrical current that is alternating runs through. When a compatible pan is placed on the cooking zone, the coils instantly generate heat via magnetic induction. This allows you to cook more efficiently because there's no heat loss from the pan itself.

Many induction hobs come with a wide range of features, so you'll be able to find one to suit your style. If you're looking for something that's easy to use, you can choose a model that has a touchscreen display showing the pan's position within each of its zones. You can then tap on the display to launch a comprehensive operating menu and change the power setting or timer. Some induction cooktops provide pre-programmed settings for specific recipes or kinds of food - a great feature to reduce time and effort while cooking.

Induction hobs also are considered to be the most efficient cooking stove because they consume less power and produce no residual heat. However, since they generate magnetic fields, they could interfere with medical equipment such as pacemakers, so it's recommended to avoid using them near them.

We recommend that you select a top induction stove that has an integrated extractor. This removes steam, smoke and hobs odours from the air while you cook, so it can be used with a greater range of cookware. Select one that has dual flex zones. This allows you to connect two zones on the left side to accommodate larger pots.

If you're looking to purchase a durable hob that will withstand tough stains, try models that have Hotpoint's CleanProtect coating. This coating guards against scratches, chips and hobs stains and, according to Hotpoint it is five times more durable than their standard ceramic coating. To remove any burnt-on food residues, you can make use of a nonabrasive cleaning product or scrub pads. Avoid cleaning products with abrasives which could scratch the surface of the ceramic.

Electric Hobs

Stylish and practical electric hobs are a staple element in modern kitchens. Their sleek appearance allows them to blend seamlessly into most decors, and their efficient heating makes them a great option for busy households.

Electric hobs unlike gas hobs, don't use a flame. Instead, they employ an element that is able to rise through ceramic glass to heat the food directly. They're also more economical to run as they can be switched off when not in use, saving you money on energy costs.

However, it's important be aware that not all hobs are equal. Some hobs are more advanced and include features such as an automatic safety shut-off, a digital display, that clearly displays power levels and temperatures, as well as cooking time. Some models come with an enhancement feature that boosts the speed and power of the element.

Electric hobs are also easier to clean due to their flat surface. Spills and splatters are easily removed without needing to scrub the grates. This means that your stove will last longer.

While these features make electric hobs a great option for families, it's important to keep in mind that if have a pacemaker fitted you shouldn't use this type of cooker as its electromagnetic field can interfere with your device. Induction hobs are a better alternative for those who require an appropriate cookware that you can buy from our range of kitchen appliances.
