The most efficient type of hob currently is an induction hob, as it heats the pan directly, rather than the hob surface. Sizes Standard hobs come with either two, four or five cooking zones. However, the dimensions for each size of hob can differ quite a lot. Always check the dimensions of a new hob before you buy to make sure it will fit in the space on your work surface.…

Over the years this evolved, (10th century) when Christianity adapted this celebration to All Saints Day on the 1st November, and the 2nd of…

Steam Generator A steam generator produces more heat than a traditional steam iron, this is due to the larger water tank in the base, and the separate boiler ensuring steam is produced quicker.
