Re: ceramic, halogen or magnetic hob?
I cook on a wok on my induction hob with no problem at all, Mine is also set into a a granite worktop. Ours is a Siemens 90cm wide one with 4 cooking zones and a warmer in the middle. So far, absolutely no problems at all. Ours has the stainless trim on two edges (the short edge) and I have no problem at all with keeping it clean. When we were deciding which model to have, we did see some that could be fitted flush with the worktop – can’t remember models, sorry – they looked nice too.
Re: ceramic, halogen or magnetic hob?
Hi – I’ve just had a Siemens induction hob – it is absolutely brilliant. Would never have gas again. Much quicker than gas and just as controllable. The siemens has a timer that you can set on the individual cooking zones and turns itself off when the time is up! this is a great feature – for instance when boiling eggs, or setting a time to cook vegetables so they don’t overcook.
Another great plus is that the induction hob is dead easy to clean as it doesn’t get hot and so nothing burns on it. All I use are Ecloths and water – I’ve never had to spray any chemicals on it yet and it comes up like new. My mum has a halogen hob and she says it’s quite difficult to keep it clean.
