Product Information

Frequently asked questions

What is a portable induction hob?

A portable induction hob is a compact, standalone cooking device that uses induction technology to heat specially designed induction pots and pans. Unlike traditional gas or electric heating stovetops, induction hobs use electromagnetic fields to directly heat the cookware instead of the hob surface.

This makes for a safer, and more energy-efficient cooking environment.

Do portable induction hobs use a lot of electricity?

While induction hobs still rely on electricity to produce the electromagnetic field they use to cook, they use a lot less electricity than electric stovetops or hotplates: Making them a more economical choice for cooking.
