AEG Hobs - Gas, Ceramic & Induction Hobs in South Africa

Welcome to AEG Hobs - Gas, Ceramic, and Induction Hobs in AEG South Africa, where you can explore a wide range of AEG Hobs featuring sleek built-in design and perfect functions. Whether you choose gas, induction, or ceramic with glass or stainless-steel surfaces here, hobs are a central component of any kitchen, indispensable for cooking in your own home, allowing you to cook anything from soups and stews to vegetables and fried treats.
Hobs come in different sizes, capacities and types and use different fuel sources. Here are what you should consider before buying a hob.

STANDARD HOB SIZES

Hobs come in these most common sizes in South Africa:

Hob size	Type of household
60cm wide	The most common size. For a typical kitchen and household
70 – 90cm wide	For big families and people that intend to cook a lot

TYPES OF HOBS

Hobs come in various types:
Gas hobs: Require a gas connection but are very versatile in cooking and offer lots of temperature control. There are 2 different types of gas hobs based on the surface’s material:

Gas on glass hob: Not only do they enhance your countertop aesthetics, but they are also easy to clean and provide instant, evenly distributed, and easily controllable heat.
Stainless steel gas hob: Stainless steel offers excellent thermal properties, corrosion resistance, durability, and reduced susceptibility to breakage or cracking.

Electric ceramic hobs: These ceramic hobs heat up quickly, but they’re not the most efficient and stay hot for a long time after turning them off

Induction hobs: Only heat up the pots and pans, not the surface itself, so they’re safer for children. They’re also more efficient, but need specific cookware

HOB CAPACITY

Hobs come with varying numbers of cooking zones, and buyers should keep in mind their household size:

Number of users	Number of cooking zones / burners
3 - 4 people	3-4 cooking zones / burners
5+ people	5 cooking zones / burners

HOB FUEL TYPES

Hobs can use two different types of fuel to power your cooking, and they both have pros and cons.
Gas hobs heat up very fast and offer detailed control, but they also cool off quickly. However, many people feel uncomfortable with using gas and open flames.
Electric hobs, be they ceramic or induction hobs, use electricity to heat up the food. They’re what most people are familiar with and are relatively easy to use.
Note that these are only estimates and requirements may vary depending on the household.

HOB FEATURES

Many modern hobs let you combine cooking zones and offer enhanced security both in electric and gas cooking by automatically turning off before any danger occurs. Take a look at our Hobs Buying guide to find out how to choose the best hob for your family and about the unique features that make AEG hobs stand out from the crowd.
