Caple C8641i Black 4 Zone Induction Hob - 77cm Wide

The Caple C8641i is a four-zone induction hob designed for modern kitchen installations. It features a frameless black glass surface measuring 77 centimetres wide, providing a sleek and contemporary appearance that integrates seamlessly with various kitchen styles. Induction technology offers efficient heating by directly transferring electromagnetic energy to compatible cookware, resulting in faster heating times and precise temperature control compared to traditional electric or gas hobs. The hob includes four induction zones with varying sizes and power outputs: two 180mm zones at 2.3kW each, one 210mm zone at 2.3kW, and a smaller 120mm zone at 1.5kW, providing flexibility for different pan sizes and cooking tasks. Each zone offers ten power levels for precise heat adjustment, controlled through slider touch controls. Safety features include automatic pan detection that activates only when compatible cookware is present, residual heat indicators, a child safety lock, and a safety shut-off function. The smooth glass surface is easy to clean, requiring only a wipe with a damp cloth. This induction hob is particularly suitable for households seeking energy-efficient cooking with responsive heat control. The programmable 99-minute timer and minute minder function help with meal preparation timing, while the 8700W total power output ensures sufficient capacity for demanding cooking. Its design makes it appropriate for kitchen renovations or new installations where a streamlined, easy-to-maintain cooking surface is desired. The hob requires induction-compatible cookware, typically made from magnetic materials like cast iron or certain stainless steels.
