    Overview

    Efficient induction heating

    Because the induction cooking directly heats up the metal in your pots and pans rather than heating the four hotplates themselves, these cooktops are very fast, efficient and safe to use.

    Easy clean ceramic surface

    Not only does the surface of this cooktop look great, but it's also so easy to keep clean. Spills and splashes can be wiped from the durable glass surface in an instant to keep your kitchen looking its best.

    Easy-to-use presets

    Eight heating levels include a boost mode provide flexible heat control, and there are six cooking functions to select from for accurate results at the touch of a button depending on what you’re cooking - manual, heat milk, stew, stir fry, deep fry, boil water.

    Plastic parts melted on first use!
    My wife bought this induction cooktop for travel use and replace a Phillips one we had. When I unpacked it I noted that it was strange to have plastic parts on the top near the cooking surface. The first time we used the cooktop for approx 25 minutes the platic strip at the rear deformed and melted with bubbles forming in it. Having platic on a cooking surface dosn't really satisfy the "fit for purpose" of an electrical cooking appliance, and we returned the product and were provided with a refund.

    Questions & answers

    At lower temperatures, does this cooktop cycle between 100% on and then 100% off to maintain a temperature (as I have found with the cheaper models). Or does it maintain a constant temp by staying on at a lower level? Jena · 2020-01-19
