AEG HKB95820NB 86cm 5-Zone Gas on Glass Hob in Black, LPG Compatible

The AEG HKB95820NB is a 90cm built-in gas hob that employs a sophisticated 'gas on glass' design, where the burners are integrated into a sleek, black glass surface. This creates a modern, streamlined appearance that complements contemporary kitchen aesthetics while providing the responsive control and visual flame feedback associated with traditional gas cooking. The hob features five distinct cooking zones, offering versatility for different pan sizes and culinary techniques, from gentle simmering to vigorous boiling. Key functional elements include AEG's StepPower technology, which provides nine precise flame levels for accurate temperature adjustment across all burners. One zone is specifically configured as a powerful wok burner, delivering the intense, concentrated heat required for authentic stir-frying and Asian cuisine. The cast iron pan supports are fitted with silicone feet to enhance stability, prevent scratching on the glass surface, and reduce noise during use. Safety is addressed through automatic gas cut-off thermocouples on each burner, which shut off the gas supply if the flame is accidentally extinguished. This hob is ideally suited for home cooks who value the immediacy and control of gas cooking but desire the easy-clean benefits and minimalist look of a glass surface. Its 86cm width makes it a fitting choice for standard kitchen island or countertop installations. The appliance is supplied configured for natural gas but includes the option for conversion to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), offering flexibility for properties not connected to the mains gas network. The combination of robust power, precise control, and integrated safety features makes it a practical and reliable centrepiece for a busy household kitchen.
