Convenient Cooking, Easy to Operate

induction heating is stronger than gas heating at the same output. It’s generally around 70% efficient, directly heating the bottom of the cookware, while gas is only about 45–55% efficient as more heat escapes into the surrounding environment.
Is heating on a induction hob weaker than on a gas hob?

1. Creates a cooler, more comfortable environment by not heating the surrounding air.

2. Easier to clean and move pots on the flat surface.

3. No dark discolouration on pots caused by an open flame.
What are the benefits of a induction hob over gas?

Induction hobs work with cookware that has a magnetic base, such as iron, cast iron, enamelled iron, or magnetic stainless steel.

For best performance, use cookware with a flat bottom and a base diameter of 12 cm or more so the hob can detect properly.
What are the suitable pots to use for an induction hob?

The induction hob offers 9 heat levels for different cooking needs. Use the power level guide as a reference, and adjust as needed depending on your cookware and the amount of food.
How do I choose the right power level?
