Hot Point Induction Double Hot Plate Cooker

The Brunner Hot Point Induction Double Hot Plate Cooker gives you proper cooking flexibility when you're hooked up to mains power at campsites. It's designed specifically for caravans and motorhomes where worktop space is limited and you want to move away from relying on gas bottles. The twin induction zones run independently, so you can have pasta boiling away on one side whilst you're heating soup on the other. Each zone offers nine power levels, giving you genuine control from gentle warming at 300W right up to rapid boiling at 1800W on the left plate and 1700W on the right. The left zone maxes out at 1800W, the right at 1700W, giving you 3500W combined when both are running full tilt. At 57.8cm wide, it fits most caravan worktops without dominating the space, and the 4.5cm height means you can slide it into a cupboard or under seating when you're done cooking. Weighs 4.6kg, so it's easy enough to lift out and put away or even take outside if you fancy cooking al fresco on a warm evening. Induction cooking heats the pan directly rather than warming up the hob surface first, which means faster cooking times and less electricity wasted. You'll need pans with magnetic bases (most stainless steel and cast iron cookware works fine, just stick a magnet to the base to check), and the hob automatically detects when compatible cookware is sitting on it. The glass ceramic surface stays relatively cool around the cooking zones because it's the pan getting hot, not the hob itself, which makes it safer in a confined space. There are no naked flames or combustion fumes to worry about, which is reassuring when you're cooking in a compact living area. The touch controls respond to light fingertip pressure and the LED display shows your selected power level clearly. Running on standard 230V 50Hz campsite hook-up power, you don't need any special electrical modifications. Just be aware that using both zones on maximum settings pulls 3.5kW, so you'll want a 16-amp hook-up and should probably avoid running other heavy-draw appliances at the same time. The glass surface wipes clean in seconds once it's cooled down, and there are no burner rings or gaps where food debris can hide. FEATURES
