Features of Kitfort induction cookers: model lines, pros and cons, customer reviews

Induction cooktops are a particularly popular type of home appliance among campers and students.

After all, they have a compact size and are quite easy to transport, while they are quite powerful devices.

Types of induction cookers

The main distinguishing feature of induction cookers is their compactness. Thanks to it, you can not only significantly save free space in the kitchen, but also easily transport the stove, which is very important for people living in rented apartments and those who often change their place of residence.

Induction panels are divided into single-burner and two-burner devices, into stoves with touch and push-button control.

Touch control panels have one common glass-ceramic surface, which is more convenient to clean from various contaminants. For users who prefer push-button control, there are classic push-button models on the market.

Among other things, thanks to the glass-ceramic surface, the panels look neat and look great in any interior.

The main thing to consider when buying such devices is that in order to work with them as efficiently as possible special kitchen utensils should be used with a flat and even bottom.

Induction hobs do not have a heating element itself.The heating of the panel occurs due to electromagnetic induction resulting from the operation of the generator.

Almost all induction hobs have a glass-ceramic coating, since it easily transmits electromagnetic waves, and also effectively withstands increased loads and various temperature values.

In addition, this material looks extremely neat and gives the stove a special touch of elegance.

But in addition to the mostly obvious advantages, there are also some disadvantages - this is poor resistance to aimed impacts, strong temperature changes, as well as a tendency to form small chips and scratches.

Therefore, it is better to use non-abrasive cleaners for cleaning, as this will help maintain the neat appearance and functionality of the panel.

Advantages and disadvantages

The main advantages of induction cookers are:

• High security. Without special dishes, even a working induction hob will not heat up, so there is no need to worry about the safety of a small child and pets. There is also no risk of fire. You can leave a spoon on the stove without any fear, since any small utensils on the induction surface will not heat up anyway.
• Ease of maintenance. The problem of cleaning from burnt food residues and greasy stains of gas and electric stoves is known to absolutely everyone, but on an induction surface, products that accidentally appear will not be able to burn. Before starting cooking, the surface must be wiped with a damp cloth from dust and small food residues.
• Economical electricity consumption. A nice bonus during daily use is a significant reduction in electricity costs.
• Heating rate. Among the main advantages of gas stoves in comparison with electric stoves, there is also the opportunity to save time, often in large quantities spent on heating the hob. Induction panels also heat up to the required temperature quite quickly. Thus, in order to boil one and a half liters of water on this surface, you will have to wait no more than 3-4 minutes, and on an electric stove, waiting can take up to 10 minutes.

The disadvantages of such devices include the following important criteria:

• Noise generated during operation. The fan that comes with the stove or panel works with a fairly loud noise. In terms of volume, it can be compared with powerful coolers in gaming PCs. Excessive noise can be avoided by using special dishes made of soundproof materials.
• The negative impact of radiation on nearby equipment. The magnetic field created by the included panel can affect the operation of other devices powered by electricity. Therefore, it is desirable to place the product at a certain distance from the rest of the electronics. Also, people with hearing aids or pacemakers will be forced to look for alternative solutions.
• The need for special cooking utensils. A distinctive feature of the use of such a panel is the need for special containers for the heat treatment of products. Luckily, there are plenty of decent options on the shelves of hardware stores. The main thing is that a special symbol in the form of a spiral is located on the dishes, accompanied by the mark "Induction".
