Built-in household appliances are practical and look beautiful. One of the most popular appliances is the electric hob. It does not take up much space, and every hostess will approve of its interesting features. It can cook independently, monitor the boiling of dishes, regulate the degree of heating. Having studied the user comments, having analyzed the opinions of experts, I am ready to present a rating of the best electric hobs of the year.
TOP 4 hobs for 4 burners
Hansa BHCI65123030
The model of the German company Hansa opens our rating. The 4 Hi Light burners heat up in 10 seconds, each controlled by a special rotary knob made of plastic. All 4 are located on the right side. Each hotplate has a residual heat indicator. The indicator indicates that the heating zone still remains hot in the off state. When the residual heat H icon stops burning, it means that the surface temperature has dropped below 50 degrees - there is no longer a risk of getting burned. This function is the most useful from a security point of view. The excellent glass ceramics of the German manufacturer Schott Ceran was used. The innovative production process makes SCHOTT ceramics safe, efficient and reliable.
- affordable price;
- beautiful view;
- glass ceramics Schott Ceran;
- residual heat indication.
- easily soiled black surface;
- inconvenient to wash rotary switches;
- both the burner and the metal edging of the hob are heated;
- hard stains are difficult to wash.
The Hansa panel is a good example of the price-performance ratio. The device looks stylish in black, but because of this color, drops and fingerprints are visible on the surface. Equipped with an indication of residual heat, which is important when observing safety rules. Schott Ceran glass ceramics looks beautiful, but washing it after cooking is torture, not all stains can be washed off. Price - ... On the Yandex. Market 88% of buyers recommend this product.
LEX EVH 640 BL
Four-burner electric hob (Hi Light) of LEX EVH 640 BL made of glass-ceramic. After switching on at maximum power, it heats up to the set temperature, then goes into maintenance mode. Unlike the Hansa, the BHCI65123030 has touch controls that are more convenient than the rotary switches on the right side of the Hansa. The residual heat indicator ensures safe use. Among the key differences from the previous model, I would include the presence of a timer function, child protection, a button for blocking the surface and a protective shutdown of the device.
- touch control and adjustment;
- timer, child protection, surface lock button;
- it is well cleared of drops, pollution.
- contains asbestos, which negatively affects health;
- heats up quickly, but then cools down for a very long time, and after 1 year of use it starts to fail;
- boils water for a long time.
The technique of the little-known company LEX, like Hansa, has an affordable price, several important "chips", for example, a timer, child protection. There are no such options in the previous sample. However, the LEX does not have the same quality components as we would like. After a year, burners often begin to fail, traces that cannot be washed appear on the glass ceramics. The surface heats up quickly, but then cools down for a very long time - this is a big minus. But there is a touch panel that does not slow down, washes well, and works regularly. Price - ... On the Yandex. Market 83% of buyers recommend this product.
Bosch PKE611D17E
The model of the famous Bosch brand has 4 quick heating rings with 17 power levels. The surface is made of glass ceramics, it is perfectly cleaned after cooking. Like the LEX EVH 640 BL, it has a TouchSelect control system that will follow your commands without errors. TopControl technology has been implemented - this is an indication of the degree of heating, which works correctly, ensuring your safety. It has a child protection system, a safety shutdown, a timer - everything like the LEX EVH 640.
- high quality assembly, components;
- touch control TouchSelect;
- TopControl system;
- price-quality ratio";
- easy to wash off after cooking.
- unpleasant sound signal;
- with long use, the sensor starts to slow down a little.
The technician copes with its duties perfectly. Heats up quickly and cools down unlike the LEX EVH 640, has the necessary protection from children, a shutdown system. There is nothing superfluous in it, only the most necessary to ensure safety and comfort when cooking. If you do not turn off the device for a long time, the touch control starts to slow down a little, but I consider this an insignificant drawback for such a technique. Price - ... On the Yandex. Market 91% of buyers recommend this product.
Electrolux EHF 96547 XK
Electrolux four-burner (Hi Light) panel. One of the surfaces is expandable. None of the listed competitors can boast of such a "feature". The surface is glass-ceramic, as in Bosch PKE611D17E. DirectAccess controls provide easy access to the choice of cooking parameters - just touch with your finger and slide it to the desired mark. It has a very convenient Stop + Go function: you can pause cooking at the touch of a button, and then resume work with the same settings. Another very useful option is EcoTimer: you can set the time until the end of cooking, like a normal off timer, but part of the time the panel will run on residual heat to reduce energy consumption. There is a lock button, a safety shutdown, a residual heat indicator, an automatic boil function.
- DirectAccess controls
- Stop + Go, EcoTimer functions;
- 1 hotplate with the possibility of expansion;
- low power consumption.
- high price;
- the sensor does not respond to wet hands;
- marking;
- one of the burners is located close to the control unit;
- short power cord;
- there are cases of surface cracks appearing after a year of operation.
The Electrolux model has several nice features that are not found in the equipment of other manufacturers. For example, a burner with expandability: this is not found in either Bosch or Hansa. There are also drawbacks: the sensor does not respond to wet hands, even there are cases when the panel is covered with very noticeable cracks after only a year of operation, but otherwise it is a very good device.

The Electrolux hob has 3 Hi Light burners, one of which is three-circuit. Management - touch, with indication of settings. The PU elements are designed so that you can select the desired operating mode with one touch. The appliance has a residual heat indicator that indicates hot surfaces. This avoids scalding when cleaning. In addition to the indicator, a protective shutdown is provided.
- high build quality;

- overpriced;
- no protection from children;
- lack of interesting options and technologies.
Electrolux EHF 6232 IOK - excellent quality equipment, copes with its duties without complaints. Price - : in my opinion, it is overpriced. I consider it inexpedient to pay for a promoted brand. For less money, you can take the Weissgauff HV 431 B, which is flawless, has a timer function, and a very high quality coating. On the Yandex. Market 100% of buyers recommend this product.

All functions, touch control work flawlessly. The panel is small, saves space in the kitchen, but due to its modest size, it has small burners, the largest of which is only 18 cm in diameter.The surface is easy to clean, but you will have to wash it regularly, as it is very easily soiled like a magnet , attracts dust.

TOP-3 hobs for 2 burners
MAUNFELD EVCE 292-BK
The MAUNFELD electric hob is made of glass-ceramic, which can be washed without problems. The panel has In the two-burner (Hi Light) model, the smaller burner is located in diameter closer to the user, directly next to the touch control panel. The presence of residual heat indicators contributes to the safety of the device. It is possible to set one of 9 power levels. There is a timer.An important structural advantage is the presence of a lock button, which prevents the accidental inclusion of the surface by animals or small children.
- low price;
- beautiful view;
- it is well washed;
- heats up quickly.
- crackles when working;
- often fails;
- water boils for a long time.
A budget two-burner model, which I would not recommend taking. It often fails, its repair is very expensive. When working after 4 power levels, it starts to crackle, it is very annoying. Water boils on it for a very long time. Price - ... On the Yandex. Market 80% of buyers recommend this product.
LEX EVH 320 BL
Another two-burner Hi Light model from LEX. The body is made of glass-ceramics, as in the MAUNFELD EVCE 292-BK, washable without problems. Management - touch. Among the functions are a timer, a touch panel lock, an indication of residual heat, an overheat protection system.
- heats up quickly;
- Beautiful design;
- low price.
- burners begin to fail after a couple of months of use;
- the control panel heats up noticeably when cooking;
- touch control starts to slow down after a couple of months;
- the touch button for turning on the small burner rarely works;
- small distance between the cooking zones.
I consider the LEX EVH 320 BL to be of very poor quality. Problems with this device begin after a few months of operation: the touch button for turning on the small burner starts to work badly, later they themselves fail, the touch control panel begins to noticeably overheat and slow down. It has more disadvantages than advantages, to which I can only attribute quick heating and appearance. The MAUNFELD EVCE 292-BK has even better quality than the LEX model. Price - ... On the Yandex. Market 67% of buyers recommend this product.
Bosch PKF375FP1E
Double-burner Hi-Light panel with PowerBoost function and adjustable power level to save 20% of cooking time. It has 17 power levels, two-position indicators of residual heat.

- high price;
- very easily soiled panel. Traces and fingerprints remain permanently.
It is a well-deserved leader among two-burner hobs. The model is very technologically advanced, has such functions and "chips" that are not in the LEX EVH 320 BL and MAUNFELD EVCE 292-BK. In addition to modern technologies and functions, the device from Bosh differs from similar devices of competitors in the high quality of assembly and components. The device will definitely serve you for a long time. Price - and this panel fully justifies its price. On the Yandex. Market 80% of buyers recommend this product.
