THE WORKING VIEW

Why this induction hob earns its place

Manual controls mean no programming — staff just turn the knob to the temperature they want. This hob draws 3kW, making it more powerful than entry models, so it heats water faster and holds multiple service demands. The stainless steel casing is more durable than plastic-bodied units and cleans better in grimy kitchen environments. Eight power levels and eight separate temperature settings let cooks dial in anything from a gentle hold to a hard boil without flipping between functions.

The 4-hour auto-shutdown is a working-kitchen safeguard — it cuts power if the hob runs unattended overnight. The timer itself is manual, so kitchen staff control when things start and stop. Flat-bottomed pans between 12 and 26 cm work best, and only magnetic materials conduct heat efficiently.

BEFORE YOU BUY

Questions, answered straight

Manual is faster if you change tasks frequently. Turn the knob, start cooking. Programmable suits kitchens with fixed station routines — breakfast throughput at the same settings each morning, for example.

Yes. Boiling water, simmering stock, holding sauces, frying — eight steps are enough granularity for commercial cooking. High-end models add more steps, but they do not change the practical job.

Stainless resists corrosion and dents better. A plastic casing in a splashy environment will discolour and can crack if something lands on it. Stainless costs more but lasts longer in volume kitchens.

It counts elapsed time from power-on. It is a safety shutoff, not a cooking timer. Your kitchen's own timers handle recipe timing; this one just prevents accidental all-night left-ons.

Yes, 13-amp plug. This makes it portable enough for catering vans and temporary setups, unlike hardwired commercial kit.

Keep the glass surface clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent — no scouring pads. The casing wipes down. Electrically, there's little to service; a multimeter check every couple of years keeps you ahead of faults. Craven's team on 01792 732702 can schedule routine inspections.
