AEG vs Smeg 75cm Induction Hob - Black — Comparison

The AEG 6000 SO64IB0BFZ at £599.99 and the Smeg SI2741D at £579 are both premium induction hobs in black. The AEG is a 60cm hob with a bridge function, while the Smeg is a wider 75cm hob.

The AEG SO64IB0BFZ features SaphirMatt glass for a scratch- and fingerprint-resistant matt finish, and a Bridge function that links two zones into one large area for griddle pans and roasting tins. The Smeg SI2741D offers four zones across 75cm, with nine power levels plus a boost, residual heat indicators, automatic pan recognition and overheat detection for safety.

Choose based on worktop space and cooking style. If you have a 60cm cut-out and use large griddle pans, the AEG's bridge function is valuable. If you have a wider space, the Smeg offers more room between pans for £20.99 less, along with strong safety features. Both require magnetic cookware and a suitable electrical connection.

Bottom line: choose the Smeg SI2741D at £579 if you want a wider 75cm induction hob with boost and safety features. Choose the AEG 6000 SO64IB0BFZ at £599.99 if you need a 60cm hob with a bridge zone and SaphirMatt finish.
