"Excellent" star star star star star If, like us, you cannot afford a cooker with induction hobs this is an excellent alternative. Admittedly we have only just started using it, but so far we cannot fault it and find it brilliant. Our old electric cooker top is very slow and you cannot get the rings down to a very low setting. This little hob is fast and you can control it as you would gas, in fact it is probably better. I am sure we will find more and more uses for it over time, but at present, just for day to day cooking we are delighted.
"WOW this product is great" star star star star star I spent weeks trying to decide whether to order this hob. I'm so glad I did. Its a good quality hob that's quick and efficient. It looks good. It heats up quick and is easy to control the temperature. As soon as you turn it down the temperature goes down. No more waiting going from a boil to a simmer. I'm so impressed. Thank you Lakeland. I won't be using my old hob any more.
"Everything I hoped it would be" star star star star star I bought this little hob for the specific reason that it offers a timer. I make a lot of my own soup, and I was looking for something that would allow me to prepare ingredients, bring to the boil, then safely leave to simmer for half an hour or so while I get on with my work. Although I had to fiddle to find the ideal 'simmer setting' (200 on 'P'), now that I have, the hob is everything I hoped it would be. It's very easy to clean too, as the surface stays largely cool other than where the saucepan has been sitting. Pity the instruction booklet isn't better though.
"Can't do Pasta" star star star star_border star_border This hob is adjustable for temperature and power. However the instructions are absolutely unclear about when you should set the temperature and when you should set the power. And the temperature setting is by 20* so you can set it at 80* or 100* but not 90. As a result I have discovered I cannot cook pasts on it at all - either it is not warm enough or it just boils over the place. support_agent A note from the team We're sorry to hear you've experienced this problem and will be in touch soon to help.
