Needed a small standalone hob electric hob in case we did not have any spare rings on main cooker. This does the job. It is a great bit of kit.A things to note ,,,The layout is super good and easy to use.It is cooled by fans, so there is a bit of background noise when you are cooking.The feet ...For it to be standalone, on a kitchen side, you have to attach the four feet. Only problem was the screws that came to attach the feet are not long enough, so the feet will not attach. Luckily for for the missus, like all good husbands, keep a load of spare bolts and screws in the shed (in case it comes in handy).Found 4 small screw / bolts of just the right size (think they came off a television bracket). Now feet attached and solid.The only other query is that this comes with a 13amp plug. Underneath it states this appliance is 16amp. I suppose you should have both rings on full.

I bought my first one last year as I was about to downsize and not take the cooker with me. Thought it would do as a stop gap but after seven months daily use it's been so good that I don't want to go back to a normal size cooker. I don't need 4 rings but I thought 2 might be beneficial so today I've taken delivery of my second hob, identical to the first. I'm 76 so I had a few crucial criteria on the checklist when I was choosing a model. Safe, simple, stable, solid and sensible. This ticks all those and more. No fiddly knobs. Simple, effective and rapid heat control by means of a touch screen. The lettering is clear and easy to read and the display lets you know exactly what power level you're on. If you need to raise or lower it, just touch the screen till you reach the required level (e.g if you boiled something and then want to simmer). Easy to clean - no different to any other ceramic hob but I will get some purpose made cleaner for it tomorrow. It's wiped after every use and I was careful when siting it, ensuring it sits on a heavy duty heatproof & level base, under the extractor and with clearance around it. So, my experience to date has been excellent - boils well, simmers perfectly, fries evenly - all with standard cookware. The 2nd hob will be used with borosilicate glass jugs for gently heating drinks and keeping them warm at the dining table. I need to master the timer next as I've not tried it yet. It arrived well packaged, no damage whatsoever, speedy delivery and includes as instruction book. Note this is not a flimsy item but a solid piece of proper kitchen equipment that will hopefully be the last I need to buy. First rate product Karinear, thank you, and thank you to Amazon for great service.

Wooow. I can't believe that's it's more effective then my expectations. Highly recommended. Value of money. Thanks

Perfect for the space needed.Plugs in. Can be mounted into surface or used as portable.Heats quickly, lock feature, cools quickly, 9 settings.

Real handy as a second stove, I currently have gas stove which my children find difficult to clean so this is for them to cook on as easy to wipe down and good enough to cook whole meal on. Ideal for when hosting and need extra stove space.

It’s ok, takes ages for the fan to cool it down before you can unplug itDeveloped an overheating fault after a few months rendering it unusable on higher settings which gradually worked its way down to the the lower settings to the point of not being worthwhile usingIn my opinion something like this should last longer, so this is not of merchantable quality but the seller (sold through Amazon) do not respondBetter off with an old style hot plate for less than half the price, they tend to last a good deal longer before they fail
