  • What inductions hobs & ovens are people buying these days?

  • I've got AEG hob and Bosch oven. Hob was, I guess, mid-level and oven probably cheaper end. Seems fine.

    When I was getting the hob a year or so ago (to replace a shit low-end ceramic jobba) it was very much a matter of working out what was in stock, loads of stuff was unavailable.

  • inductions hobs

    Given how many people seem to smash theirs I can't help but feel that these should be viewed as consumables. So it's probably best to stick with what ever the cheapest "good enough" option is that you're happy to spend every 2-5yrs.

    Or look into some sort of warranty insurance package that covers it.

  • We recently re-did our kitchen & bought a midrange AEG oven (was about £450) and we've been happy with it, looks decent & has some nice cooking features.

    We got everything different brands via sales though so we kept the prices down - Miele extractor (v quiet and super powerful), Neff hob (gas so no good for you). The only expensive thing was the Bosch fridge as we wanted the bigger size which was difficult to get hold of and we missed it in the sale so had to pay full price.

  • I went for

    Smeg 90cm single gas wok burner / 4 x induction hob (I think this type are discontinued now)
    Second hand Gaggenau oven and steam oven
    Luxair 90cm cooker hood

    Instant Air-fryer
    Second hand flatbed Panasonic microwave
    Second hand Samsung heat pump tumble dryer
    LG direct drive washing machine
    AEG built in fridge freezer
    Beko fridge freezer in the garage
