Induction vs Ceramic vs Gas Hobs: Which Should You Buy?

In short

A new kitchen is built around five appliances: a built-in single oven, a hob, extraction above or within the hob, a built-in microwave and an integrated dishwasher. Measure the housings first. Single ovens from Bosch, NEFF, Electrolux and Beko fit a niche 56 cm wide and 55 cm deep, and induction hobs come 60, 80 or 90 cm wide.

Built-in ovens

60 cm built-in single ovens with added steam, AirFry or pyrolytic cleaning.

Compare capacity and how each one cooks. The Bosch Series 2 holds 66 L and bakes on three levels with 3D Hotair, the Bosch Series 4 adds steam from a water bowl, and the Electrolux EOM6P46K holds 72 L and comes with an AirFry tray.

Induction hobs

From a 60 cm four-zone hob to a 90 cm Belling with five zones.

Compare the controls. The Bosch Series 4 PUE611BB5E has 17 power levels, the Electrolux LIB60420C has nine and a Booster that brings water to the boil in under 90 seconds, and the NEFF N70 holds a frying temperature with its 11-level sensor.

How to choose built-in kitchen appliances

From the product descriptions and our guides.

The niche decides which oven fits

A built-in single oven goes into a 60 cm wide housing, and the cut-out inside it matters more than the oven's outside size. The Bosch, NEFF, Electrolux and Beko single ovens list a niche 56 cm wide (up to 56.8 cm for the Bosch and NEFF models) and 55 cm deep, so they can replace one another. Check the power supply as well: the Bosch Series 2 HHF113BR0B is supplied with a plug on a 110 cm cord, while the Bosch Series 4 and NEFF N50 have no plug fitted.

Single ovens

Pyrolytic cleaning turns grease to ash

A pyrolytic oven heats its cavity until grease and food residue turn to ash, which you wipe out once it cools, and the door locks during the cycle. The Electrolux EOM6P46K and the NEFF N50 and N70 ovens have it. The Bosch Series 4 takes a gentler route, with a coated back panel and a hydrolytic programme that uses heat and water, and the Beko softens grease with SimplySteam. The Bosch Series 2 has a full glass inner door to wipe down.

What is a pyrolytic oven? · Single ovens

Induction needs magnetic pans and the right width

Induction heats the pan itself through a magnetic field, so the surface stays relatively cool and responds at once, but pans need a magnetic base. A 60 cm hob such as the Bosch Series 4 PUE611BB5E or Electrolux LIB60420C has four zones. The NEFF N70 T68FHV4L0 spreads five zones over 80 cm yet fits a 75 cm cut-out, and the Belling BIH90TB has five zones across 90 cm for cooking several dishes at once.

Induction vs ceramic vs gas hobs · Hobs

A hood and a vented hob do the same job differently

A cooker hood should ideally be as wide as the hob below it, and the 53 cm Bosch Series 2 canopy is narrower than a 60 cm hob; bigger or open-plan rooms also need a higher extraction rate. Ducted hoods send air outside and extract best; recirculating hoods filter it and need new filters from time to time. A vented hob draws steam and smells down through the hob instead, with no hood overhead, which suits an island or an open-plan kitchen.

How to choose a cooker hood · What is a venting hob?

Good to know

How often should a pyrolytic oven clean itself?

Occasionally rather than weekly, according to our pyrolytic oven guide, because the cycle uses energy; it can also give off a smell, so ventilate the kitchen while it runs. Between cycles, the NEFF N50 and N70 ovens have EasyClean for lighter soiling.

Can a vented hob recirculate the air instead of venting it outside?

Yes: a vented hob can duct the air outside or filter and recirculate it, though ducting extracts best. The Electrolux LCC83443 moves up to 500 m³/h when ducted and 465 m³/h on recirculation, through a combined grease and charcoal filter that can go in the dishwasher.

Which hob takes a griddle or a large pan?

One with a flexible or joined zone. The NEFF N70 T68FHV4L0 detects cookware of any shape within its Flex zone. The Bosch PVS811B16E joins two zones with CombiZone, and the Electrolux LCC83443 does the same with its Bridge function, for planchas and other large pans.

How quiet are integrated dishwashers?

Between 40 and 48 dB for the Bosch, Blomberg and Belling models. The Bosch Series 6 SMV6ZCX10G is rated 40 dBA, the Blomberg LDV52320 45 dB, the Belling BIDW1463 47 dB and the Blomberg LDV42320 48 dB. Our dishwasher guide suggests the low 40s for an open-plan kitchen.

Can a built-in microwave double as a second oven?

A 45 cm combination model can. The NEFF N70 C24MR21N0B pairs a 45 L oven, with 17 heating methods including Air Fry and a top temperature of 230 °C, and a 900 W microwave. The Bosch CMA583MB0B combines microwave, hot air and a 1750 W grill in 44 L.
