Description
Four Zones, One Tap Away
Four pans on the go, a sauce that needs watching and the pasta on a timer: a busy hob earns its place. The PowerPoint 60cm ceramic hob gives you four zones to work with, pairing two 200mm zones at 1800W with two 165mm zones at 1200W for 6000W in total. Responsive touch controls at the front keep 9 power settings a tap away, and a 99-minute timer can switch zones off automatically or act as a minute minder. Automatic safety switch-off, a child lock and a residual heat indicator look after safety, while the Black vitro ceramic glass, framed in aluminium with stainless steel trim, wipes clean easily.
What Our Specialists at AD Rate Most
Our experts single out the 9 power settings on each of the four zones, which give fine control between a gentle simmer and a hard, fast boil. They also rate the 99-minute timer and child lock, a practical pairing for busy family kitchens where pans need watching and curious hands need keeping away from the controls.
Key features
- Four cooking zones pair two 200mm zones at 1800W with two 165mm zones at 1200W, covering stockpots and small saucepans alike.
- A combined 6000W gives the hob enough power to keep every zone busy when a big meal is on.
- Nine power settings on each zone let you move in small steps from a gentle simmer to a hard boil.
- Responsive touch controls at the front of the hob put every setting under your fingertip.
- A 99-minute timer can switch zones off automatically or act as a handy minute minder.
- A child lock helps stop small hands from switching on a zone or changing a setting.
- A residual heat indicator tells you when the glass is still hot once the pans have come off.
- Automatic safety switch-off provides an extra safety net alongside the child lock and residual heat indicator.
- Height: 55mm.
- Width: 590mm.
- Depth: 520mm.
Four Zones, 6000W Combined
Two 200mm zones rated at 1800W sit at the front left and rear right, with two 165mm zones at 1200W alongside them, giving 6000W in total across the four. Every zone has 9 power settings, so you can choose a low setting for gentle warming or a high one for bringing a large pan of water to the boil. Because the two larger zones are placed diagonally, two big pots can work side by side without crowding.
Touch Control With 99-Minute Timer
Responsive, user-friendly touch controls sit at the front of the hob, so adjusting heat is a matter of tapping through the 9 power settings. The 99-minute timer can be set to switch zones off automatically after a predetermined time, so you can leave the pasta to boil without watching the clock, or it can simply act as a minute minder that alerts you when the time is up.
Safety Built Into Everyday Use
Three features cover the moments when attention wanders. Automatic safety switch-off adds a backstop, a child lock helps keep the touch controls safe from small fingers, and a residual heat indicator shows when the glass is still hot after the pan comes off. Together they make the hob easier to live with in a family kitchen, where a hot patch of smooth ceramic glass is not always obvious to the eye.
Measuring Up for the Worktop
The hob measures 590 mm wide, 520 mm deep and 55 mm high, and it needs a 560 x 480 mm cut-out in the worktop. At 7.2 kg it is a manageable weight to lift into place. The Black vitro ceramic glass is held in a 4-sided aluminium frame with stainless steel trim, so the edge where it meets the worktop stays neat, and the 60cm width gives you four zones without taking over the counter.
