Also do you recommend one with actual knobs and dials, or touch control?

I have a protector on mine which I use while cooking so less chance of scratches.

I remove cover once a week to wipe it clean for any odd marks or crumbs etc.
still looks like new after nearly 4 years"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/52705666","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"CatsWithThumbs"},"datePublished":"2024-05-06T23:43:55.000Z","text":"I have a Zanussi induction and it's fab so far. Nearly 3 years in and still scratch-free without any form of protector on it. but I do always wipe it down after use/before using again so nothing should be getting burned on to it.
There don't seem to be many with knobs if that is your preference but I did find one for my mother who didn't get on with touch buttons: Cookology CIK602 - she seems happy enough with it.
Touch controls will give you more choice but some are better than others. some have minimal buttons requiring you to first push a button to select which hob you're controlling and then jab at +/- buttons so a bit of a faff, make sure you at least get one with individual controls for each hob. And if you can find one with a 0-9 scale so much the better, just press along the line to control the power rather than jabbing at the +/- buttons"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/52705029","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"thinwhiteduke"},"datePublished":"2024-05-06T20:32:28.000Z","text":"Whatever hob you get, you don't really need hob protectors. Just use kitchen towels, but make sure they're premium, big and thick like Regina Blitz. No supermarket own brands."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/52710673","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"louiselouise"},"datePublished":"2024-05-07T22:08:03.000Z","text":"I bought these earlier, might be rubbish but I'll report back if anyone's interested!

I just clean my induction hob (boyf has a ceramic hob, but still the same) either with a non-scratch sponge scourer or a bit of kitchen towel and Elbow Grease.
I use Elbow Grease stuff everywhere - they say it's good for stain removing on fabrics but (slight derail) I use The Pink Stuff Oxy Stain Remover Spray for that."}],"commentCount":6,"interactionStatistic":5,"articleSection":"Ask"}
