An induction hob uses electromagnetic sensors to detect when there’s a pan on the hob. The hob then precisely heats the pan, but not the area around it. This prevents wasted energy and could save you money on your utility bills. It will also give consistent heat across the base, cooking foods quickly and evenly. The MIN54308N can also sense when a pan is removed, immediately switching off the heat for added safety. This model has four cooking zones with nine power levels, and a booster function for quick heating – choosing precise temperatures makes cooking easier than ever. The touch sensitive controls at the front of the hob are easy to access and use. They maintain a streamlined cooking surface and make cleaning easier, while also maximising the available cooking space. As induction cooking heats the pan rather than the hob, food particles won’t burn onto the hob. This makes cleaning a doddle – simply wipe the surface clean in seconds.
