Cooking performance and flexibility

The five-burner layout is practical for preparing multiple dishes at the same time. Two auxiliary burners support lower-power cooking, while the two semi-rapid burners cover general everyday use.

The central UltraRapid burner is rated at 3.90 kW, giving the hob a useful high-heat option for larger pans and faster cooking. The available information also identifies automatic ignition, which should make starting the burners straightforward.

Design, controls and installation

A brushed stainless steel surface and ultra-low-profile design give this built-in hob a clean appearance. Front-mounted rotary knobs keep burner control accessible, while the cast-iron pan supports provide a sturdy base for cookware.

The stated dimensions are 78 × 720 × 511 mm, with a standard cut-out size of 492 × 700 mm. Buyers should check the available space and installation requirements carefully before purchase. The hob can be converted to LPG using the supplied kit, and its gas safety valves are designed to stop the gas flow if a flame is accidentally lost.

Who should choose it

This hob is best suited to busy kitchens where five burners and a wider cooking surface are useful. It should appeal to cooks who value gas responsiveness, conventional rotary controls and durable pan supports.

It is less suitable for shoppers seeking an induction-style surface, touch operation or a compact hob footprint. Installation should be planned around the stated cut-out, gas connection and electrical supply requirements.

Research note: this BestBuysUK assessment is based on the manufacturer's published specifications and other reputable technical sources. Specifications and retailer availability can change, so verify critical details before purchase.
