They are quick to heat up and are energy-efficient, which can reduce the cost of electricity. However, one drawback of ceramic hobs is that they tend to be slow in changing the temperature, which can be frustrating when cooking food that requires immediate reduction or increase in heat. + +Electric hobs are made of a solid plate that is heated by electric elements beneath. The power of each element can be adjusted by rotary knobs. You can even use the boost feature to boost the heat of a single zone. Ceramic hobs also have a very high heat retention, which means they'll stay hot to the touch even after being shut off. This could be a problem if you have children, so it's advisable to only install them in a location that is well away from any flammable items and away from children. + +The advantage of this type of hob is that it can be installed on a variety worktops such as laminate, solid wood and granite.

We recommend hiring an electrician to ensure that your new hobs are safe to use. + +The downside to this kind of hob is that it's sensitive to the size of the pan and shape. It is necessary to purchase cookware that's the exact size as the element, or that will fit comfortably inside each of the heating zones on the hob. If the cookware is not the same size as the element, the element won't recognize it and will not heat the bottom of the pan. This can result in cooking that is uneven and make the hob less efficient. + +Gas on glass hobs + +Glass hobs with gas are a great choice for an elegant, modern look. They can be more expensive than electric hobs, and could require professional installation. However they heat up faster - an entire pot of water can typically boil in less than 4 minutes. This type of stove is ideal for cooks who need to control how much heat is generated. Glass hobs are more vulnerable to damage and require more frequent cleaning since they are more likely to accumulate grease and residue. + +This Bertazzoni hob is an excellent example of gas on glass.

It also features an easy-to-read power level indicator, which allows you to control the precise temperature of your flame. You can choose from nine pre-defined settings including the highest setting for searing steak and a low setting for scrambled eggs. + +The simple and intuitive controls were also well loved by our test subjects who found them to be very simple to use. A few minor drawbacks are the fact that you need to physically press the controls nine times to reach the highest level of heating and it can be difficult to see the status of the burners through the glass. + +Some of the top gas on glass hobs can be found at affordable prices like this Neff model. It's not likely to win any design prizes, but it will do the job and can be a great addition to your kitchen for just more than PS120. + +Electric hobs + +There are many electric hobs that are perfect for modern households.

They're made with a sleek, polished, glazed finish. They also have an easy-to-clean surface that is resistant to smudges or scratches. These hobs are also fitted with a power booster function that allows you to increase the heat for a short duration. + +Another electric hob that is ideal for modern homes is an induction hob. As opposed to traditional gas and electric plate hobs, induction hobs use electromagnetic fields to directly heat cookware. This means they are more energy-efficient and provide precise temperature control. However they require a particular kind of pan to function and are costly to set up. + +Gas on glass hobs are another great option for modern homes. Similar to a traditional gas hob, it has an oven that is surrounded by the glass is a flat layer. However it's shatterproof and heatproof, so it's much easier to clean than tempered glass. Many of these hobs have a "hot surface indicator" that alerts you to the heat. + +Gas hobs are a popular choice for many home chefs, but they can be noisy and hard to clean.

When an induction compatible pan is placed on the hob the coils produce magnetic fields which heat the pan directly instead of heating the surface of the worktop or a heated plate. Induction hobs Oven, [www.ovensandhobs.uk](https://www.ovensandhobs.uk/), are energy efficient, as they don't squander heat. + +There are a variety of models of induction hob, from basic entry level models that have only one cooking zone that is marked with rings to more advanced multi-zoned induction hobs that have up to six zones and allow you to cook multiple pots simultaneously on one Flex zone.

However, they are more energy efficient in the long run. They are more efficient in heating and have a smaller heating space which can reduce the cost of energy. They also cool down quicker and feature a safer design that doesn't have hot plates, which makes them ideal for families with young children or elderly persons living in the house.
