Bosch Series 2 Gas 4 Burner Hob - White vs 600mm 4 Burner Induction Hob with Plug — Comparison

PBP6B2K60 is the Bosch PBP6B2K60 Series 2 Gas 4 Burner Hob in white at £229, while PWP611BB5B is the Bosch PWP611BB5B 600mm 4 Burner Induction Hob with Plug at £309. Both are relatively accessible Bosch four-burner hobs, but the PBP6B2K60 is a gas model, whereas the PWP611BB5B is a 600mm black induction hob.

The PBP6B2K60 provides four gas burners, ergonomic sword dials, cast-iron supports, safety gas cut-off and wider dial distance. The PWP611BB5B measures H:51mm x W:592mm x D:522mm, has four induction burners, a black finish and is supplied as a hob with plug. Both fit the mainstream four-zone brief, but their day-to-day feel is very different: gas gives visible flame and traditional pan supports, while induction gives a flat surface and faster electronic heating with suitable cookware.

The PBP6B2K60 is the better option if you have a gas connection, prefer knob control and want to keep the purchase price as low as possible. Its £229 price undercuts the induction model by £80. The PWP611BB5B suits buyers moving towards cleaner-looking electric cooking, especially where the plug-in format is attractive and induction-compatible pans are already available. It is still affordable by induction standards, but less suitable for users attached to gas cooking.

Bottom line: choose PBP6B2K60 if you want a low-cost four-burner gas hob with cast-iron supports / opt for PWP611BB5B if you prefer a 600mm black induction hob with four burners and plug-in convenience.
