This was to replace a Bosch that had a tin dropped on it. Negatives; To me the touch sensitive controls are a bit illogical, for example they're side by side with the top ring controls at the ends of the line. It's easy to hit the wrong burner. There are no half-power intervals, it's 1 to 9, and if you increase power past 9 you get to1 not zero as with the Bosch. It's also a little bit slower than the Bosch and the rings only come in two sizes, not 3 as with the Bosch. Postives: It has a timer. Now I have a timer on the hob as well as the oven, no more overboiled veg. You have to switch it on using one of the touch sensitive controls, so it doesn't have the annoying 'child safety' feature of it's predecessor, whereby it would seem to start, then cut-out and you'd have to re-set it. The quality of the materials seem not really any different from it's predecessor, it works perfectly well and cost two thirds less. I am very happy with my purchase.

Our existing ceramic hob lost it's marbles and then gave up the ghost completely one morning! So I had to do something quick if I wanted hot porridge. Where does one go in North Devon if you haven't the time or inclination to jump in the car and travel miles to find a replacement hob (or anything else)? Amazon to the rescue as always! I envisaged paying several hundred pounds for a new hob - but no - Amazon advertised this unknown name of Gionein (at least unknown to me) ceramic hob for less than £100, free delivery. I read the reviews (always so useful) and decided to give it a go. Well it came on time, well packed, looking very smart and business like (for a ceramic hob). Fitting was almost a doddle, since I had fitted the original several years ago. Just one minor problem I encountered - the tabs on the end of the feed lead were flattened rather than round which meant they didn't fit in the junction box terminals too well resulting in the screws tilting side ways - not really desirable considering the high currant drain needed if four plates are in use at one time! May I please suggest that when purchasing a replacement hob you purchase a new 30 amp junction box at the same time, if that's what your hob will be connected to. In use the Gionien ceramic hob is easy to use, clean, and very effective - the "boss" is well pleased and that being so is the highest recommendation possible. Thank you Gionien for an excellent product and Amazon for marketing it with such excellent service.

I did a lot of research and this one kept on popping up in the reviews and for the cost, it was worth a try its easy to install, simple instructions - two issues that i noticed - the connecting cable is short, too short IMO, we had to change it for a longer one to get to the cooker socket, its easy to change and your electrician can do it but it will cost you. The other issue / observation is that the whole hob gets hot when using several of the rings, maybe is normal and looking on line, it seems to be with most hobs, I just hadnt experienced it on my old hob (which was part of freestanding range) overall pleased with it and its value

Bought this hob after the one that had been in the kitchen about 10 years was looking rather tired. This hob keeps up with the well known brands and is a fraction of the price. Nice looking low profile and the touch sensitive buttons work well, they also allow for more pan space as opposed to conventional knobs which is a further convenience. Temperature is controlled well and the elements are powerful. In relation to installation, very easy comes with a reasonable length of flex and can be installed by anyone with reasonable working knowledge providing the existing wiring is up to scratch. Highly recommended.

So far so good, already used for two weeks, easy to use and not much problems, the only issue is the timer not displayed directly, but buy with this price , I can’t complain it

The hob looks fantastic and is easy to use (aside from an annoying beep if you place anything on it, which I fixed with a custom chopping board). However, the negative reviews about the coating are entirely accurate. On only its second use, a minor spillage occurred. I waited until the hob was completely cold and followed the official cleaning instructions exactly, but the coating came off, leaving a permanent mark. I'm now terrified to use that ring in case the glass cracks during a future spill, leaving me with only three usable rings. A kitchen hob should be designed to handle basic spills and cleaning. Now I have to buy a replacement and shell out another £90 for an electrician to install a new one. Utterly disappointed.

Product seems fine. It works. But... Installation took 2 days due to the fact that the roll of sealant tape included was 60cm too short! I had to order a roll in order to insert the hob onto the worksurface. Couldnt cook for 2 days as a resilt Really inconvenient!! I had the hob wired in, but on the side of the worksurface, unable to be used until tape arrived! I suggest anyone purchasing this hob, buys a roll in advance. You're bound to need it! Its now been two weeks since it was fitted and we started to use it with my new saucepans. It now looks like its 10 years old! The finish (i bought tge matte finish) is going patchy and looks really well worn where my pans have been. No matter how i clean it (and i always use ceramic appropriate cleaning agents and cloths) the patchy areas are getting worse. I had originally thought to give 4 stars, simply because of the issue with the sealant tape, but now you get 3 stars and they are simply because, at this point in time, all 4 rings are working. If this hob fails within the year, i will be more than unhappy and Gionien will know of my annoyance!!!

Good quality and value nice looking

Schön großes Kochfeld.

Acquistato ad agosto 2020, fino ad ora si è dimostrato un ottimo prodotto, facile da installare e da utilizzare. Rapido ed efficace, semplice da pulire. Consigliato

Also ich benutze das ceranfeld jetzt schon über Monate und es erfüllt sein Zweck alle Platten Funktionieren einwandfrei & werden im Gegensatz zu mein kaputtes indesit ceranfeld schneller heiß obwohl mein altes ceranfeld um die 1.5cm größere Platten hat und Essen finde ich ist seitdem schneller fertig und Paket war pünktlich angekommen und ordentlich verpackt und somit kann ich mit gutem Gewissen sagen ich würde es weiterempfehlen

Il vetro si è crepato, ma tutto il resto funziona.. se ci fosse una cover che la copre non sarebbe un problema, ma invece è molto visibile
