The details

This simple yet stylish ceramic hob is a real pleasure to cook on. It offers two small and two large heating zones, giving you plenty of space to rustle up a large family meal without having to juggle your pans around. Plus, the hob's flush design not only makes it really simple to clean away any spillages, it also adds a sleek, modern feel to your kitchen. It uses ceramic technology which is a lot more efficient than gas, as there's less heat loss, so you can potentially save money on your energy bills.

The hob's controls are cleverly located on the side rather than on the front, well out of the way from any little ones' wandering hands, so you don't have to worry about your children reaching up and accidently switching it on. The rotary dials are really easy to use and offer a choice of six power levels to suit your cooking, ranging from a light simmer to a fast boil. For added peace of mind, all four cooking zones are fitted with a residual heat indicator that lights up if the hob zone is still too hot to touch after using it, so you know when it's safe to clean the hob.
