What's the best kind of induction hob?

[Old Mod]

At least you didn't have to think too hard about her birthday present!!

Yeah the first part of the present was the cooking pans. The second half was this

It's brilliant it's a portable induction cooker.
It's great it will boil water quicker than a kettle and is light and coming to site with me when the new cooker is installed. A little over £40 in Curry's. [emoji106][emoji12]

Other thing with induction hob you will need pans that can be used on induction they can be pricey.

Thanks to all those who helped with this post a few weeks ago, it's appreciated.
Solved the problem in the end without having to install another cooker point! :hurray:
Turns out a lot of Smeg ovens are 13amp rated, so with the money I saved (and the mess, redecorating and hassle!) from not having to install a new point I spent the extra money on the slightly more expensive Smeg brand. So new induction was wired direct to old point and new oven was plugged in the wall! Result!!

Thanks again all. [emoji106]

Haha u wish Sean! [emoji23]
But that's the good bit! When I had to put in a new piece of worktop to house the Hob I did my best to remove the old one without damaging the tiles, such as they are, because we're not due to replace the kitchen till the end of this year. We've only been here two yrs and the kitchen and bathroom will be last on list cos of the expense. So when cooker gave up I was forced to put in a new piece of hideous worktop too! Grrrrrr!
Leave tiling intact? Haha some chance!!!!

Primer........ I see no primer! ........only dusty plaster!
And those behind the cooker........ I pulled them off with my finger nails! Haha still that's hidden for now behind the new oven housing! [emoji322]
