AEG 60cm Stainless Steel Gas Hob vs 4-Induction Zone Hob with Auto Switch Off - Black — Comparison

HGB64420YM is the AEG HGB64420YM 60cm Stainless Steel Gas Hob at £378, while IAE84411FB is the AEG IAE84411FB 4-Induction Zone Hob with Auto Switch Off in black at £679. They represent two very different AEG hob choices: the HGB64420YM is a traditional gas model for standard spaces, while the IAE84411FB is a wider, sleeker induction option.

The HGB64420YM measures W:594mm x D:510mm x H:40mm and provides four gas burners, cast-iron supports and a 1.1m moulded 3-pin mains plug. The IAE84411FB measures H:44mm x W:750mm x D:490mm and offers four induction zones, auto switch-off, touch controls, an Automax zone and a black finish. Both provide four cooking positions, but gas uses open flames and physical pan supports, while induction uses a flatter glass surface and electronic controls.

The HGB64420YM suits homes already set up for gas, buyers replacing a 60cm hob and cooks who prefer direct flame control. At £378, it is £301 cheaper and avoids the need for induction-compatible cookware. The IAE84411FB suits kitchen upgrades where a 750mm cut-out works and fast, clean, touch-controlled cooking is the priority. Its auto switch-off and Automax features make it the more modern and safety-focused choice, but the price is significantly higher.

Bottom line: choose HGB64420YM if you want a cheaper 60cm gas hob with cast-iron supports / opt for IAE84411FB if you want a wider black induction hob with touch controls, Automax and auto switch-off.
