Effortless cleaning, with inox finish and streamlined drip tray
An inox (stainless steel) finish resists fingerprints while a shaped drip tray collects spills and run-off for quicker cleaning. Smooth surfaces reduce crevices where food can stick.
Wiping down after cooking becomes quicker and less fussy, keeping the hob looking presentable with minimal effort.
Stable cooking, with sturdy cast iron pan supports
Heavy-duty cast iron pan supports are designed to cradle pans and distribute weight evenly across the four cooking areas. The robust supports minimise wobble when stirring or moving heavy saucepans.
Safer handling of large pots and pans, giving more confidence when preparing family meals and simmering stews.
Safer operation, with Gas Safety Switch and one-hand ignition
A gas safety switch automatically cuts the gas supply if liquid spills or the flame is extinguished. One-hand ignition lights burners directly from the control panel without separate lighters.
Lower risk of accidental gas flow and quicker, more convenient ignition each time cooking starts.
