Hobs
Whether you're fitting out a new kitchen or replacing a sadly defunct machine, when you're looking for a hob it’s performance and convenience that matters.
But should you buy a Bosch or Hotpoint hob? An Indesit or a Whirlpool? Do you want a gas hob or an induction model? What about speed of heating and how easy it is to clean?
There’s a lot to think about – let us help
We've taken the bestselling hobs from the leading brands, and put them through our independent tests.
We test for cleaning and ease of use, speed of heating, cooking at high temperatures and at low temperatures and how easy the hobs are to use.
Hobs that perform outstandingly well in these tests are awarded our coveted Which? Best Buy status. When you buy a Which? Best Buy hob, you can be sure you're getting the best.
