Unlike other reviewers, I do not find this hob easy to clean. It takes copious amounts of kitchen roll to get rid of any smears and stains, unlike my previous ceramic hob cooker, and can only use expensive hob cleaners. However, my biggest criticism is that the heat from the rings, particularly the front right, permeates outwards, making the finger-touch controls, at times, too hot to touch. Engineer says there's no fault. Wouldn't buy again.

Bought to replacing existing aeg ceramic hob with knob controls. No complaints about old hob which was still working, so decided to replace with aeg again with touch controls as much easier to keep clean. Here's hoping this one as reliable. Looks smart and working well.

This is the second hob I've had of this make and model, I had to buy a new one as this first one was accidentally damaged during some building work, I could of chosen a different brand but as I was always pleased with its performance and looks anything else was not an option.

Bought the AEG unit as our previous NEFF ceramic hob suffered a partial failure after only a few years of use. AEG is better build quality and easy to install. Would have got a full 5 stars if the heat settings had half steps instead of full increments e.g. 1 - 1.5 2 - 2.5

We bought this hob to replace our 8 year old ceramic hob from a different manufacturer that had cracked. So far we are very impressed with it. It is simple to use and as quick if not quicker to heat up than the old one. It is easy to alter the temperature settings needing less pressure than our old one. We chose this model as it has a ring that can be altered between small pans and extra large. Great for flexibility between boiling an egg up to large casserole or frying pans. Rings are nicely spaced. Easy to clean. So far it seems to be well built. It easily slotted into our worktop rather than using a special bracket like the old one had. We find the beeping noise useful and not intrusive.

Brilliant Hob, Heats up almost instantly and looks really good.

Works the same as a gas hob - very quick to turn up or down. Controls very easy and self explanatory - no complex timers or gadgets. Does show dust and marks because of the black glass, but can be quickly cleaned.
