So which is right for you? + +Gas hobs have gained popularity due to their ability heat up quickly and control the flame with precision. They are compatible with a variety of cookware and are ideal to fry foods that require precise temperatures for example, steaks. + +Gas hobs + +A gas hob uses natural gas to produce flames that heat up pans and pots. The burners are controlled by a knob that can be adjusted to alter the size of the flame and the output of heat. Modern gas hobs come with safety features, such as flame failure devices that shut off the burners if the flame ceases to burn. This helps to prevent accidental fires. + +Gas hobs are a popular choice for cooking due to their speed and precision. They can quickly reach high temperatures, making them ideal for boiling water or searing meats. They can also be adjusted to lower heat levels for delicate sauces and dishes. A gas cooktop will be less likely to cause food sticking, which is a problem with certain electric cooktops. + +Gas hobs are not as efficient, but they still use very little electricity. Induction models are more expensive initially which is why they are an ideal choice for kitchens with budgets. However, the costs of a gas hob will depend on your local natural gas or LPG prices, which can differ greatly. + +FUJIOH offers a range of built-in models in a variety finishes, including stainless steel or toughened glass. This allows you to choose the best fit for your kitchen. Unlike freestanding gas stoves a built-in model is integrated into the countertop and doesn't extend making it easier to clean and maintain. Many of our hobs have an elegant minimalist design and are ideal for open-plan areas. + +While the benefits of a gas hob are evident, it's important to understand the potential health risks that come with this kind of cooktop. Studies have shown that cooking with gas hobs can cause indoor pollutant levels well above the regulated UK and EU air quality standards. These pollutants are caused by the interaction between a naked flame and vaporised oil released from the cookware. This is particularly common when cooking with non-stick pans which are often used with gas hobs. To minimize the chance of exposure to these pollutants it is important to stay clear of burning any flammable objects near a gas stove. + +Electric hobs + +Whether you're after an electric hob to add to your kitchen or replace an old one, there are plenty of options to choose from. It is important to consider your cooking needs and how you want your new hob to appear however, there are practical considerations, such as the amount of space you have and the kind of energy efficiency rating you're looking for. + +Electric hobs are a common option in modern homes. They come in a range of designs and styles, from simple coil hobs that have touch controls to stylish ceramic or tempered glass models. They're fairly easy to clean and offer a more precise temperature control than gas hobs however, they can take longer to heat up and cool down in comparison. + +Another type of hob that has becoming a favorite among homeowners is the domino hob, that is available in electric and ceramic versions. It is designed to be flush with your kitchen countertop, these hobs feature flat surfaces that are easy to clean while heating elements are hidden beneath. When they are turned on, these hobs light up in a bright red color and ensure an even distribution of heat across the cooking area. + +The most appealing feature of domino hobs is they blend the look and versatility of an induction model and a ceramic model. Along with conventional hob zones, they typically accommodate griddles and teppanyaki grills for a unique culinary experience. + +Ceramic and induction hobs come with an elegant, sleek look that is modern in any kitchen, while offering many useful features. For example, some have an energy boost feature which instantly increases the power of a specific cooking zone, ideal for when you're in a hurry to cook something. And for peace of mind there are security features, such as hot indicators that warn you if a cooking area is still hot to contact or child locks that stop anyone from operating the hob. + +Hobs with induction + +Unlike gas and electric hobs, induction hobs make use of magnetism instead of direct heat to heat pots and pans. Induction hobs have coils beneath the glass surface that carry an electric current that fluctuates. When an induction-compatible pan is placed on the top of the hob, the magnetic field generates electricity in the pan's iron core, which warms it and then cooks the food inside. These hobs are known for their speedy cooking as well as being energy efficient. Many homeowners report an improvement in their overall cooking cost. + +Some sources claim that induction hobs emit high levels of electromagnetic fields - at frequencies in the kilohertz band - when used. These fields won't harm your health at a distance of normal, and they'll decrease when you increase the distance. These magnetic fields could interfere with pacemakers, which is why it is advised to maintain a minimum of five to ten centimetres of distance between the cooker and the pacemaker. + +Induction hobs also require specialized cookware. These pans need to have flat bottoms, and are usually made from iron or steel with a magnetic layer casting iron is a popular choice however, you can find stainless steel with an induction compatibility, copper and aluminium (check the label to determine if they are compatible). Some hobs feature dual ring designs that combine smaller and larger cooking zones to fit different pan sizes. + +Most induction cooktops come with an electronic control system that includes power bars in every cooking zone You can choose your preferred heat level by sliding your fingers across the power bar - left to right increases the power and right to left decreases it. Some hobs also have a slider, which works similar to the one found on an iPhone: you simply swipe your finger across to select the ring and tap the power bar for the desired setting. + +Some hobs are equipped with a child lock that prevents children from accidentally turning off the hob or changing settings. This feature is included on most of the hobs we've tested, which is great to reassure parents. We always recommend that hobs are handled with care and placed in a way that they are not easily tripped or sat on. + +Glass with gas + +Gas on glass hobs have a an elegant look that is perfect for modern kitchens with modular design. They have a sealed flame that prevents dust or impurities from getting inside. They are also easy to clean and are a great option for busy families. + +The hobs of this kind are made with toughened glass that is scratch-resistant and heat resistant. The burners have also been plated with chromium and stainless steel to increase their durability. These features make them strong and long-lasting. These features are crucial, especially in terms of safety. + +Gas cooktops with glass tops are less difficult to clean than stainless steel models. It is essential to keep in mind that only flat-bottomed cookware and pans are recommended for use on the glass cooktop. This is because a rounded bottom can cause too much of the surface to come into contact with the burners, resulting in the overheating of the cooktop and causing damage. + +Another benefit of glass-on-glass cooktops is that they don't require as much maintenance as stainless steel models. Stainless steel stoves need to be cleaned regularly to prevent burns and other damages. A glass cooktop, however, can be cleaned easily with a sponge or cloth and a cleaning solution. These models also have a built in shut off valve that can stop the flames from burning if they are accidentally turned off. + +The gas stoves are available in a variety of sizes and styles to fit any style of kitchen or decor.
