The Best Hob Hobs

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

Our experts recommend gas hobs due to their precise flame control and flexibility. However, electric models can provide superior energy efficiency and are more easy to clean. You can accelerate the cooking process with features like a power boost and a timer.

1. Hobs induction

Induction hobs are a contemporary and efficient alternative to traditional gas or ceramic models. Instead of heating up the entire cooking area like gas hobs do, they employ magnet technology to only heat the copper coils beneath your pans. The cooktop is cool to the touch, making it more secure to use and easier for cleaning. They also boil water quicker than a traditional kettle and use less energy. They're now a common kitchen appliance in HelloFresh's test kitchen and we love this sleek, premium model from AEG which comes with four cooking zones with individually controlled functions as well as a handy minute minder. It has a smooth surface that is easy to clean and is simple to operate by using the touch-sensitive control panels, but one minor gripe (which is common for all induction hobs) is that the distribution of heat may be patchy; however this is only noticeable when trying to stir-fry.

The AEG induction hob comes with a five-year guarantee and impressive eco ratings. It is a A+ rating for energy efficiency and a low power consumption of 775 watts per cooking zone. The "Flux zone" feature allows the pans to be moved around within the four zones and adjust their power levels to suit your pans or pots as well as the 'PowerBoost function boosts the output by 50% to ensure quick boiling. Other useful features include an auto-shutoff function as well as a 'fryingSensor' that prevents your cooking pan from overheating so you never need to worry about burning food.

This is an induction cooktop that is priced at a bargain that can be wired to a worktop or new one. The cooking zones that are independently controlled are clearly identified with the use of a cross or ring to indicate which side of the coil lies beneath, while there's an easy-to-use touch-control panel. It has large "Flux Zone" which can hold larger pots or pans. It's also pre-programmed to have preset power levels for the front and middle zones. This is great if you often cook with different sizes or shaped pans, which need to be brought to a boiling point, simmered and then kept warm at the same time.

2. Gas Hobs

A gas hob (or gas cooktop, if you're American) still reigns supreme when it comes to kitchen cooking. They are the best choice for boiling water boiling soups and sauces, simmering them as well as pan-frying eggs and frying meats. Their popularity is due the fact that they can quickly and accurately produce high temperatures, making them perfect for searing and boiling.

The flame indicator's visual display makes it easy to determine each burner's status at a glance. This is very useful for security. It's much more difficult to forget to turn off the burner on, or even switch it off accidentally as it is with an electric hob.

Most models have a flat surface that makes them less difficult to maintain than their ceramic counterparts. However, it's apparent that there's no material that can stop spills and splashes completely, so you'll need to be on top of cleaning tasks to avoid the Neff T27DS59N0 from getting blemished over time.

Gas hobs are more energy efficient than their induction cousins, as they heat up more quickly and evenly, saving on electricity costs. This is especially true for vented stoves that combine the two appliances into one unit and eliminate the need for a vent hood. This can save on the space in your kitchen and also create an elegant and modern design that will blend into any style of interior.

Due to their effectiveness and ease of use, many homeowners opt for gas hobs that are freestanding rather than built-in versions. They are simpler to install and offer more flexibility if you're looking to create a minimalist design for your kitchen.

Another benefit of going for an independent model is the ability to connect it to the bottle of liquid petroleum gas (LPG) which is an alternative energy source if you're looking for a greener option. But, you'll need be able to find the right LPG boiler and stove before this is an option for you. These models require a gas supply, ventilation, and regular maintenance to ensure there are no leaks.

3. Sealed Plate Hobs

If you're looking for a sleek and energy-efficient option an induction cooker is the best way to go. They heat pans and pots using electromagnetic fields, and the glass-ceramic surfaces remain cool. This makes induction hobs safer (no accidental burns!) and more efficient as they use less electricity than electric or gas counterparts. However, the drawback of induction hobs is that they can be expensive to purchase. You'll have to purchase an induction-compatible set of cookware.

If you don't wish to invest in the latest induction technology, ceramic hobs can be a good middle ground. These stylish and sleek hobs have a smooth glass-ceramic top and hidden heating elements. They're more visually appealing and easier to clean than solid plate hobs, since they don't require difficult scouring. Plus, they heat up faster than solid plate hobs and are more flexible to your cooking needs. They don't have the same efficiency as induction hobs. Therefore, they might not be an ideal choice if you are worried about your energy consumption.

Solid plate hobs, the budget option with their simple and sturdy design, are perfect for everyday cooking. They're quick to get hot, making them an ideal choice for those who do not need a powerful cooktop. However, they may take ages to cool down. Solid plate hobs also give off lots of heat, making them not as efficient as the other choices on this list.

If you're thinking about buying a solid plate hob, we recommend selecting one that's been reviewed by customers on retailers websites. This will not only provide you with a clear view into the performance of the appliance however, it will also help you to find the right model for your home. Customers have rated this Neff CSPHOBX15 Solid Plate Electric Hob from Currys high marks and it's finished in sturdy stainless steel. The black controls match in with other kitchen appliances, creating a sleek and modern appearance.

4. Electric Hobs

While gas hobs are a favourite choice for many cooks due to their rapid heat and simple control, electric hobs have the advantage of being more energy efficient. And with modern electric ceramic and induction stoves that come with advanced cooking features, such as power boost settings and precise temperature control, they're a great choice for busy households.

When you're choosing an electric stove make sure you choose one that is sleek with touch controls and without buttons or dials that stick out. This makes them easy to clean, particularly if you opt for a flat surface that won't scratch or chip. For safety, choose models with child lock with hot indicators, as well as residual heat shut-offs that can help prevent accidents. And, if you have a smart-connected home, opt for hob and Oven digital displays that give you remote control and notifications through your smartphone, so you can manage your stove with ease.

Consider a dual-fuel hob that comes with both induction and gas burners for ultimate flexibility. The FUJIOH FH-IC7020 hybrid cooktop has both, with intuitive touchscreen controls for the induction zones and durable cast iron pan supports for traditional gas cooking. The timer function allows you to set specific cooking times to ensure that your food is cooked when you require it. This reduces the risk of cooking too long and makes your food less delicious.

To make cooking more convenient For added convenience, a model that has two separate cooking zones for pans of different shapes and sizes is the Best place to buy oven and hob choice. This can save on space and is useful when cooking using large rectangular cooking vessels, like roasting pans. Some hobs also offer the option of adding induction plates or grills to provide additional cooking options.

Gas hobs are available 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 big brand should still cost you no more than PS200. If you're looking for glass models, there are many excellent options available from manufacturers who manufacture their own brands. But, keep in mind that both induction and ceramic hobs require a specific supply configured oven with hob the right cables ovens and hobs breakers to work so you'll have to have it installed by a licensed electrician.
