Hobs FAQs
-
What is the best type of hob to buy?
The best type of hob depends on your cooking style, kitchen setup and personal preference. Induction hobs are fast, energy efficient and easy to clean, making them a great modern choice. Ceramic hobs offer a sleek look and are simple to use, while gas hobs provide instant heat control favoured by traditional cooks.
-
Why are they called hobs?
The term “hob” comes from an old English word meaning “a raised platform.” Historically, it referred to the shelf at the side of a fireplace used for keeping food warm. Over time, the name stuck and evolved to describe the top surface of a cooker or built-in cooking appliance.
-
What are the three types of hobs?
The three main types of hobs are gas, ceramic and induction.
- Gas hobs use open flames for instant heat control.
- Ceramic hobs have smooth, glass surfaces that heat up via electric elements.
- Induction hobs use electromagnetic technology to heat the pan directly, making them efficient and safe.
-
Are ceramic or induction hobs better?
Both have their advantages. Ceramic hobs are generally more affordable and easier to install, offering a clean, modern look. Induction hobs, however, are faster, more energy-efficient and safer, as they only heat the pan and not the surrounding surface. If energy efficiency and speed matter most, induction could be the better option.
