    Another tip you didn't mentioned, I always put parchment paper on my induction hob before cooking greasy things that can spurts. You can put your pan over the paper then take it off after cooking and no need to clean. I absolutely love induction technology, it's so quick you spare a lot of time !

    I have recently moved house, and I have an induction hob. I had to buy a hot plate type item to go under my Bialetti coffee pot as it won’t heat up. Luckily, I have some pans that I could use (i tested what I had using a magnet, if a magnet sticks to the base of the pan, it will work on an induction hob). It looks smart, is easy to clean and I noticed heats up quickly. The way gas prices are rising, I am pleased I have it.

    I love my Bosch hub. I don't find it to be scratching quite easy but I do wish I had those knobs like your smeg. We pull trays out of the oven all the time and place them there. I'm wondering if I need to be more careful. Our temp adjustment is is touch feature and sometimes if your finger is wet or the hob is slightly wet, it doesn't work or respond fast and that is a bummer. I love induction 10,000 times more than my gas cooktop. It is so easy to clean. I bought some hob cleaner from the manufacturer and found it works wonders on my countertops as well. I bought that same 'razor' type tool you used to clean the glass in your oven and clean the hob with it. I really love how flush with the countertops yours turned out.

    Loved your video. We’ve had an induction range which is a 4 burner hob over an electric convection oven. We’ve had ours for going on 4 years. It is great to cook on and clean up is a breeze. I noticed in the end of your video, you were using a ceramic top cleaner/polisher. I use that too, perhaps twice a week, more if my husband cooks as he likes to cook in oil and I don’t use much if at all. So it may not seem like it but oil also becomes airborne and either settles or spatters. It cleans off yes. But the hubby doesn’t think cooking when the top hasn’t been cleaned is a problem and my opinion is not welcome. So one of us has to be an adult, don’t we… so I am elected. I’d rather clean it up even if I did not make the mess. The other is when he does his oily cooking, he takes a towel and smears it all over the top and thinks that is clean. We have a microwave over the stove which is vented and has added lighting. So my idea of clean and his are different. It is clean when it is as shiny as it was when it was delivered. He does wear glasses but is vain about his appearance. I wear them too and I would rather see what I am missing. My previous range was a gas one which I did not really want but to have installed electric at the time was too costly so the gas hookup was already there. Even though I cleaned that all the time too, the top looked unsightly, especially my favorite burner. With my induction range, it looks brand new all the time. Before we bought the induction range, I thought I should try a single burner counter-top hob to test out cooking on induction. I loved it. And I use that hob when I cook with my wok as it gives me a read out of temperature whereas I have a temperature chart for my range, I just don’t get it out. I did have an episode with my wok on my range top which marred the surface and I’ve really did not want that to happen again so it is likely due to the make of the pan as well as using power boost too long. The wok has more iron in it than stainless steel and apparently it gets hotter due to that. Now that mar is very unnoticeable as the polish for the top really does work well. We’ve been able to do eggs nicely and all other cooking. It’s been very easy to transition. The controls are very responsive so I find I have better control than when I was using gas. Yes, no point in pre-heating a pan as power boost heats so fast, it is not worth getting an empty pan too hot either. And my kitchen stays so much cleaner. I never thought about how cooking with gas leaves a residue in the air which turns the ceiling yellow. But it hasn’t happened here. But we’ve also become vegan as my husband had cancer and I learned it was the safest for him so the cancer did not appear in another place on his body. I am at that age myself, 69, and have avoided breast cancer which killed both my mother and sister. So I’ve been extremely well-pleased with induction in that we are exposed to less such as the gas fumes and with cooking with so little oil, the kitchen stays clean. My cabinets don’t get that yucky coat of gummy lacquer on them which is so hard to clean off. Didn’t think it would make that much difference, but it does. I also have a Cuisinart Griddler which I love, it is not induction but the griddle plates are similar to a panini machine, which grills both sides so I will make tofu in there for myself and it is very nice that way. No matter our age, we have to try to stay healthy. In my quest to get us healthier, I’ve lost 45 lbs. My husband, not as much, as he isn’t really as on board with it all but then he hasn’t done the research either. But if I cook it, he eats it. There are loads of recipes which I am making as I am always cooking with an eye to including whatever is colorful and in season, the food looks great and gets done faster as steaming takes less time than boiling. Glad to hear you’re enjoying your hob. Best wishes to you.

    You mention hob covers and the risk of fire. I saw those claims as well and did a bit of a dive into it. In the vast majority of cases these were people who bought hob pads (circles of non-flammable material to prevent scratches) and then used them with a radiant hob, not induction; I'm not surprised they burned! We've used the pads for 18 months now with no issues whatsoever, and saved a lot of potential scratches when using cast iron.

    Useful tip to avoid a lot of damage, if your hob has a temperature setting rather (or as well as) than power USE THE TEMPERATURE SETTING. Set it to 90° C (or equivalent) when everything's in set the temp you actually want. Over the years I have used both gas and various electric resistive hobs and I find induction far better for getting a steady temperature for simmering, reducing or frying. No other hob type can give this level of consistency and repeatability.

    The first pan you picked up is one of the worst ones to use on induction cookers. The one you used with the magnet is the best to use. The sensors find it easier to pick these ones up as they have a thick, solid and flat surface whereas the thin based pans with multiple hole design can overheat the heat sync on the boards and cause them to fail.

    I agree with your comment on the design with holes; I bought a cheap, covered saute pan for use with my countertop induction cooktop I bought (a Duxtop) when i was first investigating induction cooking. It had a pattern just like that: it worked... sorta... and I thought the so-so performance was a limitation of the cooktop; but I've just recently had my Bosch Benchmark induction range unit installed and it complains bitterly about that saute pan - humming alarmingly, and producing very little heat. As soon as the new cookware set arrives, that cheap pan is leaving the building...

But I have had 2 go wrong over the years. My Tefal one I could not fix, but I repaired my English Electric one !!! I have 3 individual hobs and the cast iron pans work very well with induction !!! I think induction is far better than gas, but induction hobs are highly complex and can break down !!!

    Important factor to consider **before** buying an induction stove: burner size. It matters--A LOT. On most lower-end induction stoves the largest burner you'll get is 6". Since induction burners only heat the area of the pan making contact with the burner surface, this means trouble for 12" skillets, which typically have a 9" bottom diameter. The central area of that pan will heat nicely, but the outer area will not. If you want to get 12" burners, count on spending big bucks, like $5,000 and up.

    I would not use an adapter for non induction cookware. The adapter gets horribly hot and there is an efficiency loss. When using cast iron on the cooktop, I use a Teflon BBQ matt under the pot. Cast iron will easily scratch the ceramic surface. Parchment paper will also work nicely. High temperature rated silicon mat should also work well.

    We retro fitted an induction hob in place of a gas one. It has touch sensitive controls. You need to be careful when wiping up spillages while cooking otherwise you can easily adjust the settings of active burners(called zones). Another issue is that with the installed induction hobs they can overheat and then it will cut out until it cools down to it's working temperature. VERY annoying in the midst of cooking. The built in fans don't seem to be able to cope with the heat. I experimented with a free standing induction hob first. They have a much deeper height profile with better fans and of course they sit in free air, (on your worktop) compared to being in an enclosed confinement as in the case of an installed type. Hope this helps guys.

    Pans need to be flat across the bottom surface. Check with straight edge in case the pan has warped due to heating it up too fast or warped from putting larger pan on smaller 'burner'. Also be aware that electronic thermostats may not work when held close to the induction surface when it is on.

    I put mine on boost to start the water boiling when boiling eggs, rice or pasta or porridge. When boiling I then set to 6 or 7. Any setting under 7 is a simmering setting and never goes to boiling over which is what a gas hob will do.

    PLEASE DO NOT BUT A BELLING INDUCTION HOB!!! We purchased a Belling Cookcentre in November 2021 and the Induction hob is terrible. It pulses on and off like no other Induction hob. We have had a Bosch for 10 years and it was wonderful, and even a small Tefal one was good, but this Belling one is awful. We have raised it as an issue with Belling but have been told "that's the way it works", and so far told they will not change it or refund us. We are so disappointed, as it makes cooking food at low temperatures almost impossible. For example at level 3 it is ON for 0.5 seconds and then OFF for 7.5 seconds. At level 4 it is on for 1 second and then off for 7 seconds. At level 5 it is on for 1.5 seconds and then off for 6.5 seconds. Even at level 7 it is on for 3.5 seconds and then off for 4.5 seconds! This exaggerated pulsing is awful.

    Why do induction hobs scratch easily? Are they the same as glass or more prone to scratches than that? I read that scratches can cause them to crack which doesnt sound good, Why cant they develop some kind of hard surface to protect them which is easily replaceable - like a giant phone screen protector?

    We just bought an induction cook top and it was the worst purchase we made in our life. It either works on burning hot heat, or it doesn't work at all. If you try to cook anything under the 7 setting of heat, you'll be sitting for hours, and your food won't even warm up. Then, if you try lowering to a lower setting, it'll stay at the same and burn your food. Definitely POS technology, and we're switching to gas on our new house

    The biggest reason I can think of would be the temperature difference between the pot fresh out of the oven and the room temperature of the stove's top glass plate. But since most ovens have a maximum temperature of 250-270° C I would not be overly concerned. Just treat glass with care.

    @@GeorginaBisbyDIY I have two frying pans. One of them cost over £50, the other came with a set I bought in Sainsburys. Both have the same effect. The yoke cooks hard while the egg white remains runny. While I am venting my spline (SORRY!), boiling milk is an issue. Despite constant stirring the milk get very hot at the bottom without any sign of heat visible. And another thing (You can just ignore me at this point, I don't blame you), there are a lot of automation that I don't like. Touch the area to reduce the boil the wrong way you get an "A". If a pan is small I will get an "F", but will go on others. If I have the timer on and it finishes counting down then the whole thing shuts down even though the timer is for one thing. Worst than that if a turn off a pan it will switch off the timer. I want my hob to do want I want, when I want in the way I want it to. 40 years of cooking gas I didn't even have to think that way, and yet none the above is allowed on this f*****g induction hob.
