The flat glass-ceramic surfaces are simple to clean and can quickly be cleaned when spills or splatters happen.

Electric hobs are made of an uncooked plate that is heated by electric elements underneath. These elements can be controlled individually using rotary knobs and notched to the power level you require. You can even use the 'boost' feature to increase the temperature of a single area.
