Steep learning curve

"I've had the hob in for just over a week now. It looks good, the controls are easy to use. There's a bit of a buzz and slight vibration from the pans when cooking. This varies from pan to pan and does fade when the pans are full. The biggest problem I have is with controlling the simmer. The rings heat with pulses, for lower heat there's a bigger gap between the pulses but there's no heat retention in the ring so the next pulse starts the process again. When trying to simmer you can watch the pan bubble and then it stops, then it starts again and then stops. If you turn the power up, there's less of a pause but then you run the risk of boiling over. I tried doing pancakes and it's very difficult to get a medium heat. It's going to take quite a while to learn how to use it properly."

British made

"I purchased the Stoves Induction Hob as I needed a new one. I looked at all jobs but this one stood out at me. I am so pleased with it that I've been telling my family not only how fantastic it is but also the price. I've had Stoves before and would highly recommend them. I'm also going to be buying a Stoves Double Oven in the near future. Thank you AO.com for my perfect buy."

Fantastic product - 2nd purchase

"I originally bought this hob in 2017 and it has been fantastic. It is the first induction hob I have owned and I was very sceptical to move away from gas- but it is very easy to control. It is also very easy to clean (a big plus point over a gas hob!) and beeps if something boils over, which is a great safety feature.

When an accident in the kitchen caused our original hob to break (no fault of the hob) I was delighted to see that the model is still available and so have bought the exact same one again. "

Great product

"We bought this hob several years back and unfortunately broke the edge by dropping a bottle on it. It has been a great hob and has 2 brilliant functions with fast boil which are great for boiling water for vegetables etc. We have been so pleased with it that we have bought the same hob to replace it. Very easy clean when pans boil over. Nice looking on the work surface and a real feature on an island with its low profile black finish. "
