Explore Ceramic Hobs With Various Plate Options

A ceramic hob is a great choice for any modern kitchen – they don’t just look fantastic but are packed with features that can transform mealtimes. At Cookology, our ceramic hobs come in a variety of sizes and configurations, so you can find the perfect option to fit your space or existing oven. We have standard 60cm ceramic hobs, 30cm hobs for smaller spaces or kitchen islands, and 90cm options that are ideal for larger kitchens or frequent entertaining. 

One highlight is our 5-ring model, which features a combination of single, double, and oval-shaped zones, allowing it to accommodate almost any cookware you can imagine. Replacing a hob in a smaller space? We have you covered there, too, with sleek 2-ring ceramic hobs (30cm wide) that are perfect for caravans, camper vans, bedsits, tiny kitchens, or any space-conscious setup. These compact hobs are inexpensive, easy to fit, and still deliver big on features.

Speaking of features, we also offer ceramic hobs with rotary (knob) controls – a practical choice for older users, those with poor sight, or anyone who finds touch controls frustrating when they get wet. Knob controls are easy to use, and hobs with this feature are increasingly rare in the marketplace. The smooth black surface is also super easy to keep clean once cooled down – simply wipe away any spills with a damp cloth. Whether you’re replacing an old hob or looking for a totally new kitchen design, you can’t go wrong with a modern ceramic hob. 

Our ceramic hobs are made with specialist ceramic glass designed specifically for cooking. This isn’t ordinary glass – it features ultra-low thermal expansion, meaning it won’t crack even when heated quickly. The glass can withstand temperatures over 600°C (well above what domestic cooking requires) and offers excellent scratch and impact resistance within normal use. It’s this high-quality glass that makes ceramic hobs both durable and safe for everyday cooking.

Ceramic Hobs FAQs

 

  • What is a ceramic hob?

    So, what actually is a ceramic hob? Ceramic hobs are heated through conduction. When you turn the dial or touch the control, an electrical current heats the element beneath the ceramic glass. This element heats up the glass surface, which then transfers heat to your pan to evenly fry, boil, and cook your food.

  • Do you need an electrician to fit a ceramic hob?

    Yes – these hobs are powerful and can’t simply be plugged into a standard socket. A qualified electrician needs to fit your ceramic hob to verify your warranty, as it will need hardwiring into your home’s electrical supply. DIY installation will void your warranty and potentially breach building regulations – so please leave it to the professionals!

  • What is the best ceramic hob to buy?

    The best ceramic hob for you depends totally on your needs. When selecting a new hob, consider the features that matter most to you. Do you need a smaller hob with value for money as a top priority? Or are features, extra functions, and cooking zone flexibility more important? At Cookology, our ceramic hobs are built for easy, efficient cooking at excellent value, so you’re sure to find an option that’s right for you. 

    We also offer models with rotary knob controls, which are especially useful for older users, those with poor sight, or anyone who prefers the tactile feedback and reliability of traditional controls.

  • How do you cook on a ceramic hob?

    One of the best things about ceramic hobs is how simple they are to use – simply turn the hob on, place your cookware on the cooking zone, and use the dials or touch controls (depending on your model) to choose a heat setting. 

    Ceramic hobs don’t require specific pots or pans, but since the surface of the hob is smooth, you should always use cookware with a smooth, flat base to prevent scratching. 

    As ceramic hobs are electric and heat food through conduction, they will heat up slightly more slowly than a traditional gas hob or other types, so you may need to preheat them to achieve your desired temperature. They’ll also remain hot for a while after use, so always wait for the residual heat indicator to disappear before you touch any cooking zones.
