AEG 67670KFN

Generally very pleased with the AEG 67670KFN hob once I got used to the controls, very sensitive controls which is unusual for an electric hob.

Unfortunately, when using the power function the unit went BANG and then showed an electonics fault. Having called customer services and received a visit from a service engineer I was told that the fault would cost £740 to repair - more than the hob cost in the first place - how can that be? I am seriously unhappy - the hob is just over two years old and I would certainly expect an appliance to last longer that this

This product works beautifully and has an immensely powerful induction setting. But it is let down by a very thin glass ceramic surface that cracks with the smallest of knocks. Ours lasted about 4 months before breaking. In my opinion the product is not fit for purpose and should be withdrawn.

The hob's inductions zones are quite wonderful. I've always used gas hobs and have tended to avoid electric ones because of comparative lack of responsiveness. These act quickly enough to be able to turn down a boiling pan of liquid rapidly enough to stop it boiling over.

Getting used to induction cooking took no time at all and in future I will, cost permitting, go for an all induction set-up. What's certain is that I won't go back to gas with induction being available.

Highly recommended.
