Types of Hobs

A hob (known as stove tops in North America) is a cooking appliance that heats up pans by using electricity or flames. There are many different types of hobs. You can pick the one that best hob fits your kitchen and design.

Induction hobs feature flat cooking surfaces made of ceramic and have five or four zones for heating your pans. Modern touch-operated designs are sleek and fashionable, and are easy to clean.

Ceramic hobs

Ceramic hobs have an elegant and contemporary look that can really improve the overall look of your kitchen. They have a flat glass ceramic surface that is easy to clean, so spills and splatters can be quickly wiped away. They also heat up very quickly and are energy efficient which helps lower your electric bill. Ceramic hobs can be slow when changing temperature settings. This can be frustrating when you need to cook something that requires a rapid reduction or increase of the heat.

Electric hobs are made of a solid plate that is heated by electric elements under. These elements can be individually controlled with rotary knobs, and then tacked to the power level you require. You can use the Boost feature to boost the temperature of a particular zone. Ceramic hobs also have a very high heat retention, so they'll remain hot to the touch after being shut off. It's important to install ceramic hobs in a location that is far from any flammable objects and away from children's reach.

We recommend hiring an electrician to ensure your new hobs are safe to use.

A downside of this type of hob is that it's extremely sensitive to the size of the pan and shape. You'll need to buy cookware that's exactly the same size as the element or that can fit comfortably into the heating zones on the hob. If the cookware isn't compatible the element, it will not recognise it and won't start to heat the base of the pan. This can result in cooking that is uneven and make the stove less efficient.

Gas on glass hobs

Gas on glass hobs are sleek and contemporary in design. They can be more expensive than electric hobs, and may require professional installations. However, they heat up faster - the water in a full pot will typically boil in less than 4 minutes. This type of stove is a great choice for cooks who wish to control the amount of heat that is produced. However, it should be observed that a glass-based hob can be more vulnerable to damage than stainless steel models and may need to be cleaned more frequently, as the build-up of grease and residue tends to stay on the surface instead of sliding off.

A great example of a gas-on-glass model is this Bertazzoni hob, which boasts four matt black monobloc burners with accurate metal control knobs that create a an elegant and sophisticated look. It also comes with the wok ring that has 4kW to increase versatility, and pan supports that are dishwasher-safe, making them easier to keep clean.

The dual rings on the left side of the hob has a double inner flame to improve uniform heat distribution, which in turn accelerates cooking time. It also comes with a handy power level indicator that helps to regulate the exact temperature of the flame. You can choose between nine preset settings, such as the highest setting for sear steaks and a low one for scrambled egg.

Our testers also liked the controls, as they were easy to use and intuitive. There are a few minor disadvantages, for instance, you need to press the controls nine times to reach the maximum heating level and that the glass can make it difficult to see what the burners are doing.

This makes induction hobs extremely efficient from a energy standpoint since there's no heat that is wasted.
