What’s best for you?

Different cooktop technologies provide different benefits, from efficiency and speed, to flexibility and ease of installation. We’ve put together the below guide to help you better understand these differences and choose the best cooktop for your needs.

Induction Cooktops

Induction cooktops offer excellent efficiency, precision and added safety as they only generate heat where it is needed – directly on the base of the pan. This improves energy efficiency, safety and allows for faster cooking with minimal heat loss.

Ceramic Cooktops

Ceramic cooktops heat the glass of the cooktop, which then warms the base of the pan. This can provide a smooth, aesthetically pleasing surface that is easy to maintain and delivers even heating for consistent cooking results, with the added versatility of working with various cookware types.

Gas Cooktops

Gas cooktops burn natural gas, creating heat around the base of the pan. They are valued for their instant heat adjustment, which is ideal for recipes requiring quick changes in temperature, and their visible flame allows for easy monitoring of heat levels.

BOSCH Vented Cooktops PVQ811F15E

Wish I had ditched my gas cooktop years ago!

So easy to use. The downdraft feature is as I saw it on Youtube videos. No risk of burning myself standing oer naked flame. Kitchen will be much cooler this Summer. Love, love love it!

New induction cooktop

I recently replaced a gas cooktop for a Bosch Series 8 Flex induction cooktop. I am enjoying the ability to control the temperature really well, the speed that water boils and the ease of cleaning. The flex zone is great for extra pans, especially if they are oval or square.

BOSCH Cooktops PXE875DC1E

Our first induction cooktop and we love it

This is our first time using an induction cooktop and we love it! It's easy to use, heats up quickly, and you have lots of control over the intensity of the heat. We particularly like the flexible cooking zones so you are not limited with placement of the cookware. The smooth surface makes it super easy to wipe clean too.

Stylish & sleek!

We love our new induction cooktop - it's very easy to use and equally easy to clean up spills, especially compared to our old gas cooktop. The controls are easy to use and it looks superb matched with our new Bosch rangehood.

BOSCH Cooktops PXE875DC1E

Sleek and easy to use

This cooktop replaces a previous similar Bosch ceramic ccoktop and is our first experience with induction. Controls are the same as previous cooktop so no problems but I do remember originally we didn't find them terribly intuitive. Other than that the cooktop works well as we come to terms with its performance with different cookware, (stainless steel, non stick, cast iron and carbon steel). I love the fact that as the hobs don't get as hot as a ceramic cooktop, it seems to be easier to keep clean as there is less baked on residue. Overall very happy.

Great Induction Cooktop

First time for me to use an induction cooktop. Decided to change from gas and happy with my decision. The cooktop has boost function that boils water rapidly within less than 2 minutes. It has a sleek and modern design with metal bar on the sides to prevent glass chip. Will recommend Bosch and this model to anyone who is considering to purchase a new cooktop.
