Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Hob Buying Guide
A hob is a collection of gas or electric burners arranged together in a single unit with a unified power source. While they are usually included with an oven as part of a cooker set, they can also be bought seperately. We have a large selection of hobs in all different shapes, sizes and colours, allowing you to pick the perfect hob for your needs, as well as one that complements the style of your kitchen.
Burner Type
When choosing a hob, first you must decide whether you want gas or electric burners. Both have advantages and disadvantages:
Gas Hob: Gas burners have no heat-up time, so are far quicker to use, and the heat levels are easier to control than electric. Gas flames tend to spread more evenly across the bottom of pans, meaning quicker heating and more even cooking. They are also cheaper to run than electric hobs, saving you money on daily use.
Electric Hob: Electric hot plates take time to heat up, and tend to have a far more concentrated heat radius, leading to uneven heat distribution with large pans. They are also more expensive to run than gas hobs - however they are easier to clean, and significantly easier to set up and use.
Number Of Burners
Another consideration is the number of cooking zones (burners or hot plates) on the hob. Most hobs have 4 burners spaced evenly across the top of the machine - however some models have as few as 2, or as many as 7. These burners will be of differing sizes and shapes - most 4-burner hobs contain a small, medium, large and extra-large burner, suitable for a range of different pots and pans. While 3-4 burners will be sufficient for the majority of users, people that find themselves cooking a lot of dishes at once may wish to look at extra-large hobs that can fit several different pans at once.
Specialist Burners
It's not only the number of burners that is important - several more advanced hobs also contain specialist burners as well. These can include:
Fish Burner: A long, thin burner, large enough to fit a whole fish on at once.
Wok Hob: An extra-large circular burner, suitable for the large flat bottoms of woks.
Teppanyaki Hob: A large, flat, square burner, suitable for the preparation of teppanyaki - a Japanese form of cooking that involves cooking ingredients at high heat on a metal plate.
Power Level
The power level of the hobs are measured in watts (W). The larger the power level, the quicker and more efficiently food will be cooked. Hobs also have a different amount of power settings - on some more basic models, this can be little more than 'low' or 'high'. However more advanced models feature a large number of power settings, allowing for extreme precision when cooking.

When Are Most New AEG Hobs Released?
May to July is the most common period for new AEG hobs to be released in. If you want the latest AEG hob technology you may want to think about waiting until May 2021. It's also worth keeping in mind that the price of the current AEG hobs tend to drop off when the next models are released. Nine new AEG hobs were released in May 2020 making it the biggest month that year for new AEG hob releases. The biggest month in 2019 for new AEG hob releases was January, with one new AEG hobs released that month. In July 2018, 21 new AEG hobs were released making it the biggest month that year for new AEG hob releases.
How Fast Do AEG Hob Prices Drop After Release?
Most hobs drop in price by 8% in the first 6 months after release, however AEG hobs tend to depreciate more slowly. On average AEG hobs drop in price by 5% in the first 6 months after release.
If you are prepared to wait then you could save an average of $29 on a typical $524 new AEG hob by waiting 6 months before buying.
