Which Oven Hob Is Right For Your Kitchen?

Oven hobs are the heart of any kitchen and there are a variety of choices available. We have a variety of cooking ring sizes ranging from four to six, and some with additional features such as pan supports.

They cool and heat quickly, with a consistent cooking surface temperature. Professional chefs often prefer them since they are simple to control.

Gas Hobs

Gas hobs are a very popular choice. They come with burner rings and grates that saucepans and pots rest on. They heat up fast and permit precise temperature control. They can also accommodate various cooking methods, from boiling water to searing meats. Gas hobs are generally less expensive to run than electric hobs as they utilise natural gas sources.

They're available in a wide range of finishes, including ceramic glass and stainless steel. These finishes give the cabinets a modern, sleek design that can be incorporated into any kitchen design. They are susceptible to burning and scratches and so you must take extra care to clean them.

Regular cleaning can help keep your stove in top condition. This is especially crucial if you have an older style freestanding model. You can take off the grates and burner caps for deeper cleaning, placing them in warm soapy water, then gently rubbing. You can also make a mild baking soda paste and use it to get rid of staining that is difficult to remove without damaging the surface.

In contrast to traditional gas stoves which are appliances that stand on their own, built-in gas hobs can be integrated into the kitchen countertop, providing a seamless look. They can be mounted on a separate foundation, so they are easy to move around when you change the layout of your kitchen. However, incorporating an gas hob into your kitchen requires lots of work in construction and professional installation.

Gas hobs come in a range of finishes. From the classic white and black, to the contemporary glossy glass, they come in a variety of styles. Some come in stunning colours such as green or blue to add a touch of personality to your kitchen.

Gas hobs are a safe and reliable option that has been in use for decades. They provide precise temperature control, evenly distributed heat and are more energy efficient than other cooking methods. To prevent any accidents, it is essential to adhere to safety rules and ensure proper ventilation.

Gas hobs also come with a flame failure mechanism that stops the gas flow when the flame has gone out. This is to prevent accidental explosions or burns.

Ceramic Hobs

Ceramic hobs have an elegant, modern look and is surprisingly quick to heat up and clean. There are a variety of styles to choose from, including ultra-sleek flat and traditional shapes such as squares and rectangles. They are easy to clean after use because of their flat surface. Some also have residual heat indicators built in that turn off the area when it is too hot to touch. This can reduce the risk of accidental burns and is especially beneficial if you have young children.

However the flat surface of a ceramic cooktop can be susceptible to scratches and chips. It's more likely to happen if you drag the pans across the surface instead of lifting them with their handles. We suggest that you use extra care when handling and moving your cookware on and off the hob. We also suggest against using magnetic or metal cookware on a ceramic hob since this can damage the surface.

Ceramic hobs can take longer to cool than a gas or induction hob. This can be a hassle if you're working in a kitchen that is busy or if you need to quickly switch between cooking areas. Numerous manufacturers have made improvements to this, and offer a selection that can cut cooling times by 30%.

Hobs induction

The Rolls Royce of hobs, induction hobs are the fastest to warm up and Home Appliances are the most energy-efficient option on the market. They are extremely clean and safe as they don't retain heat on the cooking areas, however there is a cost to pay for these advantages because they can be more expensive than other options.

Hobs induction

A popular choice for kitchen renovations, induction hobs are stylish alternatives to traditional gas cooktops. They heat the pan rather than the glass/ceramic surface, reducing energy consumption and making them safer to use. They also cool down faster than traditional hobs, which means they're easier to clean.

Beneath the smooth, glossy glass/ceramic surface of an induction hob are copper coils through which an electrical current that is alternating runs through. The coils are activated by magnetic induction when a suitable pan or pot is placed over the cooking area. This lets you cook more efficiently as there's no heat loss from the pan itself.

You can find an induction cooktop that is a good fit for your style. If you're looking for something simple to use, choose a model that has an LCD display that shows the position of the pan in each of its zones. When you tap on the display, you'll be able access a thorough menu of operation, altering the power setting or the timer. Some induction ovens hobs will even provide pre-programmed settings for specific recipes or kinds of food - a great feature to reduce time and effort when you're cooking.

Induction hobs also are considered to be the most energy efficient cooktop option, as they use less electricity and generate no heat that remains. They may interfere with medical devices, such as pacemakers because they produce magnetic fields.

Our recommendation is to choose an induction hob that is top-quality and has an integrated extractor. It removes smoke, steam and odours from the air when you cook, meaning it can be used with a wider selection of cooking equipment. You'll also get the best price for your money if select dual-flex zones, which allows you to join two zones together on the left side to accommodate larger pans.

If you're looking for a durable hob that is resistant to staining, you should consider models that have Hotpoint's CleanProtect coating. This layer protects against chips, scratches and stains. According to the manufacturer, is five times stronger than their normal ceramic coating. It is still recommended to make use of a non-abrasive cleaning product or scrubbing pad to remove food residue that has been burned on and avoid cleaners that are abrasive, which can scratch the ceramic surface.

Electric Hobs

Electric hobs are an essential element in modern kitchens. They are fashionable and practical. Their sleek appearance allows them to blend seamlessly into most decors and their energy-efficient heating makes them an ideal choice for busy households.

Instead of gas, which ignites a flame to heat up the pan, electric hobs use an element that rises through the ceramic glass and then directly heats whatever is sat on top of it. They are also less expensive to run as they can be switched off when not in use - saving you money on energy costs.

It's important to remember that not all hobs have the same features. Certain hobs are more modern, with features like an automatic safety shut-off, a digital display, which clearly displays the temperature and power levels and cooking time. Certain models also come with a boost function that increases the speed of the element for more power.

Another benefit of an electric hob is its flat surface that makes it easier to clean than a traditional gas model. There are no grates to scrub spills and splatters can be easily cleaned so that your hob will be in good condition for a longer time.

Although these features make electric hobs an excellent choice for families, it's worth bearing in mind that if have a pacemaker installed, you can't use this type of cooker as its electromagnetic field could interfere with your device. Induction hobs are a great option for those who require an appropriate cookware that you can purchase from our kitchen appliances.
