Extra Features

Induction Technology

Our electric hobs with induction technology use electromagnetic waves to heat your induction friendly pan containing iron, to only heat the area of the pan which is in contact with the hob surface. By transferring heat to only the part of the cooking zone where the heat is needed, our built-in induction hobs offer quick, safe and energy efficient cooking.

High Efficiency Gas Hobs

High-Efficiency™ Gas Burners

Our built-in gas hobs come with highly efficient burners which direct the heat at a more precise angle, allowing for more heat to be transferred to your pan. Heat is quickly and evenly distributed across the bottom of your pan to help you achieve excellent cooking results while using up less of your gas, helping you save money on your energy bills.

Easy To Clean Hobs

Easy to Clean Surface

We know that spillages on a hob can be difficult to clean up. So, we’ve added a specially designed glass to our induction and ceramic hobs which offers a flat and smooth surface, giving you the easiest of cleaning experiences. Our gas hobs on glass models make cleaning easier than ever, simply wipe away spills using a damp cloth to reveal sparkling results.
