AEG TCH74B01CB Black 4 Zone Induction Venting Hob with Integrated Extractor

The AEG TCH74B01CB is a sophisticated 68cm wide induction hob that integrates powerful cooking performance with efficient extraction in a single unit. This innovative appliance combines four induction cooking zones with a built-in extractor system, eliminating the need for a separate overhead hood and creating a streamlined kitchen aesthetic. The hob features a versatile bridging zone that allows two adjacent zones to function as one larger cooking area, accommodating oversized pans and griddles with ease. All functions are controlled through an intuitive LED display interface for precise operation. Constructed from durable black ceramic glass, the hob incorporates advanced induction technology with automatic pan detection, ensuring energy is only used when compatible cookware is present. The integrated extraction system offers nine speed settings plus a boost function, capable of moving up to 650 cubic metres of air per hour while operating at a normal noise level of 66 decibels. Additional practical features include a keep-warm function, programmable timer, stop-and-go function for pausing cooking, and a safety control panel lock. The system also includes a filter clean indicator and utilises a long-life carbon filter for effective odour removal. This venting hob is particularly well-suited for modern kitchens where space optimisation and clean lines are priorities, as it combines two essential appliances into one. Its A+ energy efficiency rating makes it an environmentally conscious choice for regular home cooks who value both performance and sustainability. The automatic extractor control adjusts extraction power based on cooking activity, while the bridging capability provides flexibility for various cooking styles. Professional installation is required for the hardwired electrical connection, making it ideal for kitchen renovations or new builds where integrated appliances are planned from the outset.
