Looking to replace gas hob with electric and cant decide between Induction ( seems the best) or Ceramic. Wife has got her eye on Induction hob that works off 13a plug as we don't have enough power in kitchen, but it appears that all 4 rings cannot be used at the same time? Also i'm told that with induction you can only use certain pans, stainless etc, anyone got any experience with them? Any help is appreciated TIA

If you go with induction and need to replace pans etc with induction compatible options then drop me a PM. I can get commercial quality ones at cost.

We have induction and I think it is good.
Heats/ cooks well and cleans easily.
We did need to get a separate cable to the fuse box.

Put both hobs on full power in two different kitchens, close the doors go away and have a cuppa.
Come back later and pop your head into both kitchens... One will be nice and toasty with the "wasted" heat, the other will be like its all switched off... Induction all the way :-)
Unless you're worried your boiler might breakdown and want another source of heat! :-)

Induction is about twice as efficient at transferring energy to your food (about 85% compared to 45-50%) but then electricity is three times the price of gas per kWh, so from an energy cost perspective it costs more.
