That is why it is easy to find two-burner hobs in stores selling home appliances. If you're afraid to get confused by their range, then check out our roundup of the best models. We will talk about both gas and electric panels.

The best gas two-burner hobs

Electrolux EQG 4120 BOG

Rating: 4.9

Electrolux EQG 4120 BOG

The dimensions of this model are 36×52 cm. It houses two gas burners, which are very different from each other. The first one has a diameter of 10.4 cm. On it you can very quickly heat water in a large saucepan or kettle. Well, the second burner has a diameter of 7.4 cm. It is used for cooking those dishes that require a little fire. The cooking zones are controlled using rotary switches located at the front. Of course, the fire appears automatically – you don't have to use any matches.

Perhaps the Electrolux EQG 4120 BOG can be called 'minimalism'. Cast iron grates are used here, but they represent a modest cross – most of the hob is accessible for cleaning without removing them. The number of regulators is also minimized – there is no timer or any additional functions. I am glad that the manufacturer at least has not forgotten about gas control – safety is above all.

Perhaps this is almost the ideal hob with two gas burners. Buyers know this too. Therefore, this model is rarely found on sale – it is very quickly sold out.

Advantages

  • The surface is made of tempered glass;
  • Elegant cast iron grates;
  • The hotplates are of different sizes;
  • Easy to learn control;
  • Automatic electric ignition is implemented;
  • There is gas control.

disadvantages

  • Rarely on sale;
  • The cost may seem high.

Bosch PSB3A6B20

Rating: 4.8

Bosch PSB3A6B20

This two-burner hob will definitely appeal to those who want to have a kitchen in a modern interior. A couple of decades ago, it was impossible to imagine that in the future, gas hobs would be just like that.

This model belongs to the Serie 6 line. It contains almost all the technologies available to the German manufacturer. Its surface is made of glass-ceramic, which is easy to clean. There are two burners of different diameters on it, as well as square cast-iron grates, which will not be difficult to remove. Well, in front there are two rotary switches with which the flame is regulated. It ignites, by the way, automatically; the owner of such a hob will not need matches.

The dimensions of the Bosch PSB3A6B20 are 30.6×52.7 cm. As for the built-in dimensions, they are 27×49 cm. The presence of an especially large burner here allows you to heat water for several portions of dumplings in a very short time. But you shouldn't rely on records – larger hobs show themselves better in this regard, because they can have a Triple Crown burner. As for the small hotplate, you can also actively use it. For example, you can use it to heat a frying pan with potatoes. Also, it is she who is best suited for cooking scrambled eggs or omelet.

It is felt that the manufacturer of this model tried not to burden the buyer. He added gas control to his creation, but abandoned all sorts of additional functions. If you want to get a two-burner hob with a timer, then this is definitely not your choice. However, do not forget that there is a timer in your smartphone!

Advantages

  • The hotplates are of different sizes;
  • Modern appearance;
  • Easily removable cast iron grates;
  • Gas control implemented;
  • Easy-to-learn rotary switches;
  • The glass-ceramic surface is easy to clean;
  • There is an automatic electric ignition.

disadvantages

  • High price;
  • The ignition wire is supplied without a plug.

MAUNFELD EGHG 32 1CW / G

Rating: 4.7

MAUNFELD EGHG 32 1CW / G

Is your kitchen interior in light colors? In this case, you need an atypical two-burner hob. This is exactly what the MAUNFELD EGHG 32 1CW / G is. Its surface, made of tempered glass, is painted white. Moreover, this model is sold for only 10 thousand rubles. What else will she make you happy?

First of all, it should be noted two gas burners with different diameters. One of them is very large, which will allow the kettle on it to boil in just a couple of minutes. The second burner has a more modest size and serves to heat food or drinks in a small container. I am glad that both burners are equipped with gas control. This means that if something has boiled away, extinguishing the flame, then the gas supply will immediately be shut off.

Cast-iron grates are located here above the burners. They are easy enough to remove, so it will not be difficult to wash them. And the tempered glass is also very easy to clean. It is extremely difficult to harm him, for this you need to drop something very heavy on him, and even from a decent height. It should also be noted that there is an automatic electric ignition. Therefore, you can refuse to buy matches.

This model has dimensions for embedding 26×48.5 cm. The two-burner panel itself is a little larger. Its rotary switches are located at the front. Even an elderly person can master them. There are absolutely no more controls here – the manufacturer did not even introduce a timer here. But he was able to declare a 10-year service life! Do not confuse it with a 2 year warranty.

MAUNFELD EGHG 32 1CW / G has received many positive reviews. People just don't know what to find fault with here. Probably, the only complaint is the ribbed surface of the switches – removing fat from it will take considerable effort and time.

Advantages

  • Nice design;
  • There is an automatic electric ignition;
  • Gas control implemented;
  • Not very high cost;
  • The burners have different diameters;
  • High quality cast iron grates.

disadvantages

  • Difficult to remove grease from switches;
  • Tempered glass is very dirty.

LEX GVG 321 BL

Rating: 4.6

LEX GVG 321 BL

Think modern-looking gas hobs cost a lot of money? Not at all. For LEX GVG 321 BL they ask for only 7 thousand rubles. The only significant difference between this model and more expensive competitors is the cast-iron grates, which occupy almost the entire area. This means that if you need to wash a certain area of ​​the surface, you will have to remove these gratings. But you understand that it won't take long?

As expected, this model assumes an independent installation. Its built-in dimensions are 27×49 cm. The surface used here is made of tempered glass. It is better not to drop something heavy on it, as in theory this can lead to damage. Also, knowledgeable people will confirm that such glass gets dirty quickly.

At the front of the LEX GVG 321 BL are two rotary switches, also painted black. There are no more controls here, since this model is not endowed with a timer or any other additional functions. The manufacturer has not forgotten only about the electric ignition, but it works automatically – you do not need to press any button for this.

Gas burners of different diameters are used for cooking. The largest one is for heating water in a kettle and a large pot. A small one can be used when using some tiny dishes. Alas, it is good for nothing else – the flame turns out to be very small. By the way, if the fire suddenly goes out, the hob will immediately turn off the gas supply. This is good news! By the way, this model can be connected not only to the main gas, but also to the bottled gas – the jets will be waiting for you in a box with a panel.

Perhaps this two-burner copy fully justifies its cost. Interestingly, the manufacturer provided his creation with a three-year warranty period!

Advantages

  • Affordable price tag;
  • Convenient rotary switches;
  • The warranty period is 3 years;
  • There is a gas control;
  • The kit includes jets;
  • There is child protection.

disadvantages

  • Tempered glass gets dirty quickly;
  • Cast iron grates can seem very large;
  • The small burner turned out to be almost useless.

The best electric two-burner hobs

Siemens ET375FFP1E

Rating: 4.9

Siemens ET375FFP1E

The German company Siemens knows a lot about hobs. Especially in electric, which is also a model called ET375FFP1E. It has a glass-ceramic surface, which is almost impossible to damage. Most of the space is occupied by burners. The most important of them is double-circuit – the dishes on this one heats up in the blink of an eye. It should also be noted that both burners are ceramic and belonging to the Hi Light type. This is partly why the device turned out to be very expensive.

The control panel is located in the front, as it should be. It is touch sensitive, sliding movements are used to adjust the heating. Additionally, the manufacturer has endowed his creation with a timer. Complete! This means that after the time has elapsed, you will receive not only the corresponding signal, but also the switching off of the hotplate. And there is also a panel lock button, thanks to which no child can accidentally turn on this device.

It remains to add that the power of this model is 3.5 kW. If you live in an old house with aluminum wiring, then you are better off purchasing a gas hob. The dimensions for embedding Siemens ET375FFP1E are 27×49 cm. Among the shortcomings, we can only note here the warranty period, which for some reason is only one year.

Advantages

  • Great design;
  • Both burners are ceramic;
  • One of the burners is double-circuit;
  • Perfectly implemented touch controls;
  • There is a burner timer;
  • Protection from children and accidental activation is not forgotten;
  • There is a residual heat indication.

disadvantages

  • Difficult to clean;
  • Not a very long warranty period;
  • High price.

Samsung CTR432NB02

Rating: 4.8

Samsung CTR432NB02

And this is a more classic hob. It is made in black and its hotplates are highlighted with white circles. And this model does not cost too much – about 14 thousand rubles.

The surface of this device is made of glass ceramics. The power is 3 kW. The optimal value for heating the water in the kettle in about three minutes. Place the dishes on the ceramic hob. Both are of the Hi Light type, but the diameter of the burners is still different. And this is correct, because we do not need extra waste of electricity when we only need to heat up a modest mug with milk and honey.

The front of the Samsung CTR432NB02 houses a touchscreen control panel. The simplest buttons are used here, so even the vast majority of elderly people can master the hob. It's nice that this device allows you to adjust not only the temperature, but also the heating duration. The timer is able not only to turn off the hotplate, but also to play a signal, thereby notifying the owner. If someone is sleeping in the next room, the sound notification can be turned off. And this model also received a panel lock button. This is in case you have small children who want to push all kinds of buttons.

Otherwise, this is a typical electric hob. It has a protective shutdown, as well as the indication of residual heat. As for the dimensions for embedding, they are 27.3×49 cm. The panel itself, by the way, is only one and a half centimeters larger.

Advantages

  • There is a cooking zone timer;
  • Not very high cost;
  • Residual heat indicators are available;
  • Excellent glass-ceramic surface;
  • Convenient touch control;
  • There is protection from children.

disadvantages

  • I would like to get an even larger burner;
  • Small distance between the burners;
  • May not be able to withstand falling heavy objects.

Bosch PKE345CA1

Rating: 4.7

Bosch PKE345CA1

Another electric hob whose design can be called traditional. However, if many competitors are completely painted in black, then only the central area is such. Along the contour, there is a silver frame, inside which, among other things, the control panel is located. It is proposed to interact with the device mainly using two rotary switches.

The surface of this model is made of glass ceramics. As for the hotplates, they are ceramic, and their diameter is 14.5 and 18 cm. Both hotplates are of the Hi Light type. If we talk about the dimensions of the panel itself, then they are 28.8×50.5 cm.For embedding, you need a hole 26.8×49 cm in size.

Bosch PKE345CA1 shows itself perfectly in any kitchen. As expected, after switching off the hob will warn that its burners have residual heat. Nothing bad can be said about the service life – you will hardly find reviews on the global web telling about the breakdown of this model. The buyer can find fault only with the control panel. Mechanical switches are reliable, but because of them, the manufacturer was unable to implement additional functionality. If you want to purchase a timer hob, you will have to consider buying another model.

Advantages

  • Easy-to-learn mechanical switches;
  • The hotplates are of different sizes;
  • There is a residual heat indication;
  • Long service life.

disadvantages

  • There is no timer;
  • The price cannot be called particularly low;
  • The switches can get very hot.

Weissgauff HV 312 B

Rating: 4.6

Weissgauff HV 312 B

This model has a traditional appearance, when almost the entire panel is painted black. At least somehow only the circles of the burners and the touch switches stand out here. By the way, it immediately becomes clear that one of the burners is double-circuit. This allows you to place a huge pot of soup on it – it will heat up quickly enough.

Both burners used here are ceramic and of the Hi Light type. As for the glass-ceramic surface as a whole, it is very quickly cleaned, especially if not much time has passed after using the panel. All sorts of touch buttons are used to control the burners. Here you can even find a timer, thanks to which you can order the burner to turn off after a certain number of minutes. There is also a lock button here, which families with children will definitely need.

The rated power of this model is 3 kW. Its manufacturer has taken care of the implementation of a variety of protective equipment. In particular, the burners are obliged to turn off immediately if something boils off on them. This is done so that nothing happens even if water somehow penetrates into the panel. And there is also an indication of residual heat. She will tell you the moment when the hob can already be washed without fear.

The most interesting thing is that for Weissgauff HV 312 B in Russian stores they ask for only 7 thousand rubles. As you have noticed, this model is not inferior to even more expensive competitors in many characteristics. What's the catch? Perhaps in the need for improvement. The complete wire does not have the largest cross-section, and it cannot be called long. Better to replace it immediately. Also confusing is the presence inside the relay – with such a high current strength, transistors would be better used. Because of this, it can be assumed that you should not count on several decades of regular work.

If we talk about the size of the appliance, then a 27×49 cm hole is needed to build in a Weissgauff HV 312 B two-burner hob.

Advantages

  • Low cost;
  • There is a burner timer;
  • One of the burners is double-circuit;
  • There is a panel lock button;
  • The residual heat indication has not been forgotten.

disadvantages

  • Short and not very thick network cable;
  • Not the most pleasant sound signals;
  • The service life is unlikely to be particularly long.

The best induction two-burner hobs

Asko HI135 5G

Rating: 4.9

Asko HI135 5G

Electric hob burners are usually marked with familiar circles. But there are also exceptions to the rule. For example, for Asko HI135 5G these are two squares, where small crosses indicate the centers of the burners. The surface of the device is made of glass ceramics, all of it has a black color.

Unlike the models discussed above, Asko HI135 5G is capable of boasting an increased nominal power up to 3.7 kW. This allows you to hope for very fast heating of any dish. Interestingly, in this case, both burners are the same size, so you can put a large pan on either of them.

Touch buttons are used to control this panel. Among them, you can even find a timer for cooking zones. This is great, because now many housewives like to leave the hob to watch a TV show, after which they completely forget about cooking. There is also a panel lock button. Families with curious kids pushing every button they can reach will need it.

To install the Asko HI135 5G, a 29×49 cm hole is required. The device includes a variety of protective equipment. In particular, the hob can turn off instantly if something boils off on it. The hotplates used here are also equipped with a residual heat indicator. They will warn the person that it is not worth wiping the panel yet, otherwise you can burn yourself.

Advantages

  • There is a burner timer;
  • Residual heat indication is not forgotten;
  • Interesting design;
  • Easy-to-learn touch buttons;
  • Very high power;
  • There is a panel lock button.

disadvantages

  • Very high cost.

Kaiser KCT 3426 FI Avantgarde

Rating: 4.8

Kaiser KCT 3426 FI Avantgarde

Another great induction hob. It also has two square-shaped burners, but in this case they have different sizes. Well, in the part closest to the user there is a touch control panel. The entire glass-ceramic surface is traditionally black. Some people may not be happy with this, but for most people, this option is quite suitable.

As expected, this instance assumes an independent installation. Its dimensions are 28.8x52x5.6 cm. The rated power of this model reaches 3.5 kW. Not a record figure, but even it provides very fast heating of a kettle or a pot of soup.

Using the buttons present here, you can easily adjust the temperature of each specific hotplate. It is also allowed to set the time after which the hob turns off. So, with the Kaiser KCT 3426 FI Avantgarde, you can forget about the timer on your smartphone! There is also a button for locking the device. This makes the hob safe even in families with children who love to touch everything new and unknown.

Otherwise, this model is unlikely to surprise you with anything. It has an indication of residual heat, but only the budget models of hobs with 'pancakes' do not have it. A protective shutdown is also implemented here, which occurs most often when the liquid boils away.

In terms of cost, the Kaiser KCT 3426 FI Avantgarde is less frightening than the competitor discussed above. But even 35 thousand rubles seem to many Russians an exorbitant amount. It is a pity that even such a two-burner hob has a number of disadvantages. Most saddening is the hum that is heard during work – sometimes it really annoys. Interruptions in work are also embarrassing. After 20 minutes of cooking something, the panel heats up so much that then it needs some time to cool down – before that it will not turn on.

Advantages

  • Nice design;
  • Easy to clean;
  • There is a residual heat indication;
  • Easy-to-learn touch control;
  • Built-in cooking zone timer;
  • The panel lock button is not forgotten.

disadvantages

  • Cools down for a long time;
  • Buzzing when heated;
  • High price.

Candy CDI 30

Rating: 4.7

Candy CDI 30

Would you like to buy a familiar induction hob, the hobs of which are traditional circles? In this case, we recommend purchasing Candy CDI 30. Its surface is made of glass ceramics, all painted black. Only the contours of the burners and the sensor buttons turn white here.

Many hobs have different sizes of burners. Candy CDI 30 is no exception to the rule. The diameter of the near heating zone is 14 cm, while the diameter of the far zone is increased to 18 cm. Unfortunately, the latter is not double-circuit. But on the other hand, the manufacturer managed to reduce the price tag to an adequate 12 thousand rubles.

The rated power of this model is 3.5 kW. This suggests that there will definitely not be problems with the heating rate. The panel requires a 26.8×50 cm hole for embedding. As for the touch control panel, it consists of buttons that will not be difficult to master. Practice shows that even an elderly person can use this hob. Small guys who like to press all kinds of buttons will not hurt either – the control panel here is most often in a locked state. It should also be noted that there is a cooking zone timer here. Therefore, you can leave the device for a while. However, do not rely on the timer to turn off the hob – it can only signal with its squeak that it is time for a person to do it.

Despite its low cost, Candy CDI 30 has both a residual heat indication and many protection features. In particular, the appliance must switch off immediately after boiling liquid comes into contact with it.

The main disadvantage of this model stems from its low price tag. To achieve it, the manufacturer had to implement a pulse mode of operation. If it scares you, you will have to consider buying a more expensive induction hob anyway. Also confusing is the buzz that occurs during operation. To be fair, this model is noticeably quieter than many competitors in the same price segment.

Advantages

  • Easy surface cleaning;
  • The hotplates are of different sizes;
  • Easy-to-learn touch control;
  • Control panel locking has been implemented;
  • Residual heat indication is not forgotten;
  • Not very high cost.

disadvantages

  • Pulse operation is used;
  • The timer is purely sound.

MAUNFELD EVI 292 BK

Rating: 4.6

MAUNFELD EVI 292 BK

This induction hob looks quite traditional. What would you imagine if you were asked to think about such a device? Black glass-ceramic surface on which the burners are marked in the form of two circles. This is exactly what the MAUNFELD EVI 292 BK is. Interestingly, both burners have the same 17-centimeter diameter. This allows you to hope that two large enough pots or pans will fit freely on the panel.

The touch buttons are used to control the cooking zones. Most of the time they are locked to prevent a curious child from accidentally activating the panel. Also here you can find a timer that turns off the hotplate after a specified time. The maximum can be set to 30 minutes, which is sufficient in most cases.

As befits such a panel, it is equipped with a residual heat indicator. Also, a protective shutdown is implemented here when something is poured onto the glass-ceramic surface. And also MAUNFELD EVI 292 BK is able to automatically reduce the heating temperature if both burners work for a long time. And the less free space there is under the panel, the faster that moment comes. Therefore, when installing the device, you need to think ten times. It is definitely not worth putting it on the tabletop, the cooling will not cope with its task. By the way, the dimensions for embedding here are 26.8×50 cm. As for the rated power, it reaches quite a decent 3.5 kW.

This model has one more unpleasant drawback. The coils inside the buzz are very strong. You can get used to this, but sometimes you still have thoughts that you shouldn't save.

Advantages

  • The warranty period is 3 years;
  • Both cooking zones are large enough;
  • Easy-to-learn touch control;
  • There is a residual heat indication;
  • There is a panel lock button;
  • The cooking zone timer has not been forgotten.

disadvantages

  • The panel hums quite strongly;
  • You need as much space as possible under the panel;
  • Glass scratches quickly.
