My complete guide to Invisible induction cooktops / hobs - My opinion after 12 months use.

Includes information on my DIY laser system and pan risers. I never mentioned but my porcelain worktop is 20mm thick by ABK stone. Colour is called vintage stone fog. Its a matt textured surface.

Thanks for the demo. What were the reasons you chose this brand of invisible induction over the other brands you looked at?

[@MLH4280]

We wanted to use 20mm porcelain and had pretty fixed ideas of the way we wanted it to look. The tpb tech was probably the best overall system but I did not like the look of the side on profile and they did not have a surface that was very matt or textured feeling. There system was also significantly more expensive so could not justify the difference. The Invisacook was just not powerful enough and that was even with 12mm dekton worktop however since my demo I believe they do their own pans which may help.

Seems like a whole load of compromise and work-arounds in the name of style.

I agree there are definitely compromises. It wont be for everyone. We did a pros and cons list over getting a standard glass induction and for us there were more compromises for the glass.
We have 3 children and also regularly have people over for food. While I use the hob loads I also cook outside and use our steaming oven. I bake lots of sourdough and make my own pizza a lot. When prepping i cant stress how amazing it is to have a 3.2m worktop prep space. Our old glass hob would always get food stuck between the edge and the surface of the stone. While a glass hob is easy to clean it is nowhere near as easy as the porcelain. We often found ourselves scrubbing burnt in marks on the glass. Probably the biggest pro is safety. As you can see from my video even after cooking things at very high heat or long periods of time the stone remains cool enough to touch. And yes it looks nice!!
