The 5 best Electrolux hobs
Electrolux hobs are compact and functional devices for cooking food that allow you to ergonomically organize your kitchen space. This is due to the lack of an oven in many models. To install them, it is enough to adhere to only two rules: firstly, they should be built exclusively into a flat horizontal surface, convenient in height for your height, and, secondly, the area used must fully comply with safety requirements.
The Swedish manufacturer offers three types of equipment:
- electric, including induction;
- gas;
- combined.
The first two are most widely represented in retail chains. Let's see which models of the famous brand have become the most popular among consumers.
The best gas hobs

The hob attracts attention already externally. The material for the panel is dark tempered glass, which looks spectacular and looks great in the interior of any style. And the dimensions for embedding 56x49 cm are quite suitable, including for small kitchens. The functionality of the body is beyond doubt, since it contains 4 burners of different diameters for rational consumption of gas. They maintain the required temperature with high quality. And to speed up cooking, you can use the Triple Crown burner.
In the reviews, users point to the convenient placement of the burners and rotary knobs, which are not subject to heat. The mechanical control panel is located at the front, but does not interfere with the movement of the dishes. There are additional covers for the wok and a very neat cast iron grate. Among the advantages, one can single out the presence of electric ignition and gas control functions. In addition, the glass surface is easy to clean with conventional cleaning agents.

An effective budget model of the hob meets modern ideas about the design of the kitchen interior. It is independent, since even with the additional placement of the oven, the control will remain separate. In addition, gas can be supplied both through a pipe and from a cylinder. The package includes 4 burners, which are equipped with rotary switches. A big plus is that the design of one of them is designed to supply not one row of flame, but three at once. This allows you to quickly and evenly heat not only the container, but also its contents.
An important function of automatic electric ignition of the hotplate is present, which simplifies the use of household appliances. Of the useful options, there is gas control, which provides additional safety. Thanks to her, immediately after the flame has gone out, the gas supply is turned off. The device is equipped with a cast iron grate, which, according to user reviews, is highly wear-resistant, able to withstand temperature conditions and mechanical stress without cracking and deformation. Of the minuses, insufficiently practical enamel is noted as a material for the hob.
The best electric hobs
3 Electrolux EHF 96547 XK
Not every device of the Electrolux brand collects as many positive reviews as this rating member. The electric-type cooking structure is equipped with a touch-sensitive slider control system, which flawlessly copes with the proposed functionality. And it is quite decent for a panel in the middle price segment.
The manufacturer has selected wear-resistant materials that retain heat well and are safe for health. The glass-ceramic body and the 4 ceramic hotplates leave only the most pleasant experience. All burners are of the powerful, yet highly functional Hi Light type. One of them is three-circuit.Plus - the ability to select and set the temperature regime for each heating element. As for the forms, in addition to the traditional round one, an oval heating zone is provided. This allows you to efficiently use each section of the working area.
An ambiguous reaction from the owners of the equipment is caused by the option to automatically turn off the device when liquid spills on the hob. The undoubted advantages include a timer, a panel lock button, a residual heat indicator. Negativity causes emerging scratches and cracks, heating of the control panel.

An independent model is the most optimal option, the “golden mean” when choosing the best type. It is completely safe, and the improved Hi Light technology applied to all 4 burners creates an excellent balance between heat transfer and energy saving. Moreover, the provided double-circuit and three-circuit burners allow you to quickly heat even very spacious pots.
The control is of the touch button type and is located in the front of the hob. The timer and momentary switch-off functions provide maximum convenience. It is not necessary to be in the kitchen all the time, since the sound signals will promptly notify about the end of the set program. Electrolux has developed a special safety shutdown that helps to further save energy. Among the positive features of the model, users highlight a durable and at the same time aesthetic glass-ceramic surface and the presence of a panel lock button.

The kitchen device from the Electrolux brand has received recognition from the owners, first of all, for a special type of design of heating elements. In this case, electromagnetic coils are built in, which very quickly heat up metal dishes. The induction hob has a significant power rating of 7.4 kW. Multi-format 4 burners are built into the glass-ceramic surface of the appliance. Most often they work quietly, but some owners note a lot of noise in their reviews. An interesting option is to automatically turn off the burner when removing dishes from it. The timer can be set both for the operation of each hotplate and in general mode.
Touch button control raises no objections, since the response is instantaneous and there are no problems. If necessary, the panel is locked with a special button, which is important if there are small children in the house. The residual heat indicator adds comfort to the control process. The electric model is equipped with a protective aluminum frame so that spilled liquid does not spread outside of it. Of the minuses, consumers call the complexity of caring for the work surface, certain requirements for the dishes. It is also advisable to be at least 30 cm from the switched on burners. For those who wear a pacemaker or hearing aid, the safety distance is increased to 1.5 m.
