Which hob is best for me?

Ceramic hobs, a type of electrical hob, have smooth, even surfaces and cooking zones. They heat up much faster than conventional hobs and are much easier to clean. Multiple power levels give you precise control over cooking zone temperatures.

In an induction hob, coils beneath the surface heat a pan or pot by electrical rather than thermal induction. Induction hobs generate instant heat only where needed and cool immediately, making them more energy-efficient than ceramic and electric hobs, and safer too.

As the name suggests, this type of hob creates heat by igniting gas. If you appreciate the advantages of cooking over an open flame, Siemens gives you the ideal way to do it with a range of ceramic, tempered glass or stainless-steel gas hobs.

A venting induction hob combines cooking and steam extraction into one sleek unit, eliminating the need for an overhead hood. If you’re planning an open, seamless kitchen design, these high-performing units offer a sophisticated, modern look.

Domino hobs are small hobs (30cm or 40cm wide) that can be combined with an existing hob or each other—a good choice if you want flexibility. They come in electrical, ceramic, induction and gas versions allowing for complete cooking freedom. Have a domino hob set into the countertop, and your burner on a cooking island.

The powerBoost function increases power by up to 50%. This can save up to 35% of the time it takes to heat up pots or cook large quantities of food.

The fryingSensor Plus controls the temperature in the pan for you. It gives you full precision when frying by keeping selected dishes at the defined temperature level as soon as it’s reached.

cookingSensor Plus is an intelligent system that measures and keeps chosen temperatures - so no more overboiling of water or milk. The hob communicates wirelessly with cookingSensor Plus, which is attached to the pot.

With the climateControl sensor, steam or odors can be extracted automatically as soon as they’re detected. When you start cooking, the hood activates itself, setting power and light levels for you.

The activeLight feature adds a special highlight to your cooking. Sleek, blue light bars give you visual feedback while using the hob, so you can instantly see where heat is applied and the settings that you’ve selected.

The zoneLight feature means no more printed lines on the hob. An animated, blue light matrix underneath the surface gives a whole new level of interaction, recognising pan positions and heating zones regardless of the cookware you use.

Thanks to the cookConnect system, your hob can speak to your hood, which activates itself when you start cooking. Power and light levels can be adjusted on the hob or via the Home Connect app.

With the Home Connect app, you can access information about your hob, control cooking functions or troubleshoot problems effortlessly - no matter where you are.
