ERGONOMIC CONTROLS
Ergonomic and simplistic retro control knobs replace the traditional touch controls found on induction hobs, allowing precise and instant flame adjustment, for excellent cooking results.
Fast operation
Induction allows for precise temperature control when doing intricate cooking, or simmering for example. Heat is only generated when the pan comes into direct contact of the specific cooking zone, ensuring safety in the presence of children. This helps optimise power consumption, only using the energy needed to heat the pan itself.
Induction is faster than gas cooking taking only a little over a minute to boil a pint of water. Another benefit is that any splashes will not burn onto the hob top and are easily wiped clean making it safe and user friendly.
Smeg electric hobs come loaded with tonnes of great features to compliment your inner sous-chef. Whether you’re pan-frying duck for the in-laws visiting, or you’re throwing a dinner party for your friends, this SI964NM_BK model will always bring out the best in you and your food.
Create culinary explosions with the aid of this black Smeg induction hob. Its 4 zones use electromagnets to send heat directly to the base of your pans, rather than the whole surface for safer cooking. It has clever pan detection technology too, which means the hob will only begin to warm up when it senses a pot has been placed on top. This means that heat isn't wasted, making it more efficient. Plus, if you need boiling water fast, the handy QuickStart function gives instant heat, so it'll be ready for the pasta to go in in no time. And thanks to the PowerBoost feature, which gives an added burst of energy, you'll never be waiting long for tasty dinners.
This guide helps you master the Smeg SI964NM 60cm Induction Hob, ideal for home cooks seeking precise temperature control and a stylish kitchen appliance. With its quick heating, easy cleaning, and safety features, you'll be cooking like a pro in no time. However, this model requires compatible cookware with ferromagnetic bases. Explore the Victoria Aesthetic design with 4 cooking zones, rotary dial controls, and a PowerBoost function for efficient and stylish cooking.
