Hobtop is a flat and space-saving gas hob for the Indian market, which can be used as a free-standing or built-in unit. Hobtop has a cooking zone of tempered glass which is visually divided by a black and white contrast into a cooking zone and an operating zone. The gas cooking zones are specially geared to cooking on a high flame and are highly efficient; the cast iron pan supports are equally suitable for cooking pots with a flat and rounded base.
