Ceramic Hobs

Ceramic hobs have a sleek and modern design. They are also easy to clean and warm up. There are a myriad of designs to choose from, including ultra-sleek, flat and traditional shapes like rectangles and squares. Their flat surface makes them easy to clean down after use and they typically have built-in residual heat indicators that switch off the zone if it's been used and becomes too hot to touch or clean in only a few minutes. This can reduce the chance of burns that happen accidentally and is particularly beneficial when you have children.

We also suggest that you do not use metallic or magnetic cookware on ceramic hobs because they can cause damage to the surface.

A ceramic hob can also take longer to cool than an induction or gas hob. This is a problem especially in a kitchen that is busy or if you want to quickly switch between cooking zones.

It's important to remember that not all hobs come with the same features. Some are more advanced than others, with features such as automatic safety shutdown and an electronic display that clearly shows the power level, temperature, and cooking time. Some models also have a boost function that increases the speed of the element to give it more power.
