We have had this for about a year and are going to replace it, probably going back to gas. If you want to boil a pan of pasta water quickly then it's great. Otherwise this is not a product for someone who likes to cook. The controls are all over the place, you just never know what level of heat you are going to get. Sometimes a 6/10 is enough to heat something, other times it barely melts butter. If you put the heat on 3/10 then pretty much nothing happens, so first you need to heat the pan on a higher heat like 8/10 and then dial it back. It's so much worse than gas and such a disappointment. We have solar panels and can use electric for free but will probably take this out to go back to gas. It is easy to clean, but as a hob - especially a replacement for gas - it has been an expensive disappointment.
