Induction hobs differ from electric and gas hobs in that they use magnetism to heat pans and pots instead of direct heat. Induction hobs have coils under the glass surface that run an electric current that fluctuates. When an induction-compatible pan is placed on the top, the magnetic field generates electricity in the iron core of the pan, which then heats it, and in turn cooks the food inside. Induction hobs generally cook faster and are favoured for their energy efficiency, with a lot of here homeowners reporting dips in their overall cooking costs.

This is because a rounded bottom will cause excessive surface to come in contact with the burners, resulting in overheating and possibly causing damage.

Glass cooktops with glass are also less maintenance-intensive than stainless steel models. Stoves made of stainless steel must be maintained regularly to avoid burning and other damage.
