Hotpoint induction hobs patented HiFlux system provides energy efficient instant heat. HiFlux ensures consistent heat across the entire surface. Safer than traditional hobs, Hotpoint induction hobs are very easy to clean and help prevent baked-on food spillages, as only the pan and not the hob's surface heats up. Built-in safety features like a child lock and safety cut-out, also help prevent accidents like chip pan fires.
Hotpoint induction hobs are controllable and precise with 9 different power levels. A constant temperature can be chosen to gently melt chocolate or to boil a pan of water quickly and with ease. There are two models to choose from in either 70cm or 60cm widths and there is the option of an attractive bevelled edge finish or if you prefer, a stainless steel framed design. Hotpoint hobs provide a multitude of cooking options, from stir-frying to poaching and their ultra-modern styling adds a sophisticated finishing touch to your kitchen. The range is huge, with induction, ceramic, halogen, touch control, and frameless designs as well as the conventional gas and electric hobs that come in a choice of colour, finishes and a selection of 30, 60, 70, 75 and 90cm widths.
Easy-Fit Extra-Wide Hotpoint Hobs
Want a larger cooking surface? Hotpoint has a fitting solution. Our 70 and 75cm hobs have been designed to fit into a standard 60cm hob cut out so you can have all the cooking area you need without altering your kitchen.
Touch Control
Hotpoint touch sensitive hobs give you precise temperature control and add a host of safety features. Once the temperature level is set, one touch will lock the hob controls so meddling fingers won't cause any mishaps. And, to save on elbow grease, a boil-over cut-out ensures the hob automatically switches off when a spillage occurs.
Residual Heat Indicators
Residual Heat Indicators are an invaluable safety feature. The indicators light up to tell you if the surface of a ceramic hob is still hot, even after you have turned off the controls
Triple Ring Wok Burner
This puts the hob at the heart of the action. Ideal for stir-frying, this high-speed triple ring burner distributes heat evenly around the base of the wok for fast, efficient and perfectly cooked dishes.
Double Face Burner
Our favourite pots and pans don't necessarily come in standard shapes and sizes. The double face burner consists of two elliptical burners that can be rotated by up to 90° in total. Now you can finally get your fish kettle and awkward pans out of the back of the cupboard!
Double Ring Burner
This amazingly versatile burner allows you to switch on each flame independently to achieve precisely the results you need. The small flame is ideal for small pans or espresso makers while the large ring can be used for bringing water to the boil quickly. For a major boost they can be used together.
