## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: Love this! - Being disabled, and not having much money or the ability to stand and cook, I find this a great table top hob to have. The induction pans are a little on the heavy side but this has been a game changer for me. Its cut down on the cooking time and energy used (saves me a fair amount of money). I have 2 of these on my kitchen counter, along with 2 different air ovens and haven't had a proper cooker/oven for around 5+ yrs now. My energy consumption with all of the above mentioned is very low, which is ideal for someone like me on a budget. Easy to use, this has different settings on it from boil to basic steady heat settings so there's plenty ways to cook different foods. I just wish they could make the induction pans a little lighter to handle but that's no reflection on this hob. Easy to clean. Only downside for me is that it is a glass hob, so if you drop something on it, it could crack it (happened to me once so this was a replacement for that one). But if looked after, these do last a long time. Will definitely purchase again as and when I need another one/replacement for the ones I have as I've had other brands but have found this one to be the best and most reliable.
Review: Seems to be a good buy - I purchased the slimline version of this hob and so far so good. I have only used the Slow tab and I find it does everything I need, from frying eggs to boiling water. I do feel it runs hot in as much everything seems to cook very quickly and I think if I used the Fry tab it would burn the food. Not tried it because who can afford to burn food nowadays? It's very easy to clean because its all one level and it's all ceramic. I find it to be very quiet, and have to listen hard before I switch it off at the plug. Is it worth the hefty price tag, we will see how long it lasts but Tefal has a good reputation in our house. Overall, I would say its a good bit of kit.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you achieve a very slow simmer with this one. Other hobs I've read say simmer is far too high. I like very slow cooked casseroles.**
A: No. You cannot achieve a low simmer for a slow cooked stew. I really do not understand why people said you can.

Also I dont understand how this product has 4.8 stars. 3 stars maybe yes. Value for money, does the job...just. 
Misses crucial features i.e low simmer, Temperature control.

**Q: Is this suitable for melting wax?**
A: I’m not sure but for melting chocolate or butter, I used double boiled, which boiled the water in another pot, and put another pot on top of it, so melt slowly but consistent output.

**Q: Hi,  My question is - should the 'on/off' button have a circular light illuminated around the outside of the button. Mine is partially lit.**
A: If its plugged in (socket turned on) but the device isn't on it will show a dimly lit ring. I think mine is partially lit. 
When the device is turned on, then the light is a full red circle.

**Q: What is the total weight of the package?**
A: 5kg

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good for the price, but possibly not a permanent solution.
*by K***Y on 3 May 2018*

We bought this because we're in the planning stages of a new kitchen after already ripping out the old one, and we're trying to decide whether to get a gas or induction range when we rebuild. After using this for a month, we're still undecided, because we now don't know if the things we don't like about it are consistent with all induction hobs, or if a higher-priced one would give us more flexibility/control in its heating. For the price, this is a great introduction to induction jobs. It heats as quickly as the claims, which is amazing. However, I have to agree with some of the other reviews that the lowest manual heat setting is not low enough. It seems this model works in a very binary fashion... the magnets are either "on" or "off", and temperature/levels are determined by intermittently turning the magnets on and off. For the lower settings, the frequency of the on/off switching is slower. But that means when it's on, it's ON, providing instantaneous full heat for a second, followed by unpowered resting. This results in the contents of your pot boiling hard for a second, then stopping, in intervals. If you're trying to slowly simmer a stew, for example, it doesn't quite work as you'd want. On the other hand, the hob does work very well for high-temperature cooking, and it brings things to the boil as quickly as all the sensational claims. And as far as this particular brand/model is concerned, I think it's well-made at a good price. There are definitely pros and cons to this product. In our in-between-kitchen-demolition-and-renovation state, it is a welcome addition to our make-shift kitchen. But if this example is anything to go by, I'm not sure I want to be limited to induction cooking for the rest of my life. UPDATE: I'm back, five months later, with an amendment to my review. I now know why there is a maximum pan size for this hob: If your pan is too big, it will come into contact with the plastic edging at the top and bottom of the cook surface, and when your pan is very hot, the plastic edging will melt into a gooey mess. As it cools, it will loosely resemble volcanic rock in appearance and texture (that is, it's very hard and rough). I know because I did this. And then I was worried about scratching my other cookware if I continued to use the hob. So I bought some high-heat rated silicone adhesive and smeared it over the damaged bits of the hob. It's not the prettiest fix (see photo), but it's a fix. My cooker works and my pans are safe. But I'm tempted to rate the hob down another star because I don't know why they didn't consider the possibility of the melting that plastic edging. I won't take another star, though, because they do say not to use pans the size I used. Technically, it was my fault, but...
