Gas on glass hobs

Glass hobs with gas have a sleek and modern appearance. While they cost more than electric ones and require professional installation, they usually take less time to heat up - it's not unusual for a full pan of water to boil in four minutes or less. This type of stove is ideal for cooks who wish to control how much heat is produced. However, it must be not forgotten that a glass hob is more prone to damage than stainless steel ones and may need to be cleaned more frequently, as grease and residue build up tends to stick instead of slipping off.

When an induction-compatible pan is placed on a hob the coils generate magnetic fields that produce heat directly within the pan instead of heating the surface of the worktop (gas) or a heated plate (electric).
