Top 5 : Kitchen Hob Brands in India
These are the Kitchen Hob Brands you should consider before buying your next Hob
A hob is exactly like a cook-top functionally, but the only difference is that the HOB is installed or fit into a cavity in the kitchen platform. Thus it is called a “built in hob”. Contemporary interior designers prefer a hob in the kitchen as compared to a regular cook top, as it adds to the aesthetic look of your kitchen.
Also, many hob models have additional convenience and safety features like auto ignition and flame failure device to name a few.
