• Induction hob question

    I quite like our Howden kitchen and they basically threw in the Lamona appliances for free.

    However the Lamona induction hob is a bit feeble and wondered if there is a brand with a bit more grunt.

  • Just look for a few at kw ratings. I have a John Lewis branded AEG that has identical ratings on all 4 rings. I preferred that to having one insane ring and 2 underpowered

  • Mainly just about checking you have sufficient wiring in place (if your current hob plugs in you're probably out of luck) and then looking at the KW ratings. I spent a while looking at this stuff when I was buying mine and find the detailed specs on the manufacturer sites tend to be pretty informative.

    I got this one which is 4 zones of pretty hefty power:

    Performance
    Left Front - Power/Diameter: 2300/3200W/180x210mm
    Left Rear - Power/Diameter: 2300/3200W/180x210mm
    Right Front - Power/Diameter: 2300/3200W/180x210mm
    Right Rear - Power/Diameter: 2300/3200W/180x210mm

    or there is something like this where one has more power but some are weaker:

    Right Rear - Power/Diameter: 2300/3200W/170x265mm
