AEG, IKE85431FB Induction Hob.

Induction hobs are not only extremely efficient but they’re very safe to use too which is hugely important when you have children in the house. Of course, there are precautions you should take when using any hob such as using the back rings when possible and always ensuring pan handles are turned away from the front of the hob and do not overhang the worksurface, preventing accidental spillage.

The AEG, IKE85431F, Induction Hob provides 15 power levels plus a PowerBoost button that gives an intense rapid burst of heat. This hob will actually boil a pan of water faster than the kettle; you can boil water in less than 90 seconds which is great for boiling pasta quickly or searing meat. Zones can be grouped together allowing you to heat large pans, ideal when cooking for larger numbers.

If a zone is left on, it will automatically cut out after a set period of time thanks to the auto safety switch off function. This stylish AEG hob also features a child safety lock which can be activated to prevent the appliance being accidentally turned on and a control lock prevents heat settings being altered during cooking. If you’re distracted during cooking the hob can be paused which will reduce the temperature to prevent burning.

The fact induction hobs are really easy to clean makes them an instant family favourite. We all know how hectic life can be so less time spent cleaning is always a bonus, especially for busy parents. The flat surface wipes clean with ease and because induction uses magnestism to transfer heat, only the pan is heated up opposed to the entire cooking surface. This means food spillages do not get burnt onto the hobs surface.

Must Have Home & Kitchen Accessories For 2020.

The desire for industrial styling within kitchen design boomed into popularity during 2019. Black and metallic accessories were highly sought after. Manufacturers continue to offer sinks and taps in a whole array of metallic shades as kitchens featuring an industrial theme will continue to be hugely popular this year too.

Sustainability is also a key issue for people planning a kitchen refurbishment. Hot taps and filter water taps will continue to be highly desirable as plastic waste reduction continues to be a key environmental topic. The demand for natural materials is expected to rise significantly with more homes opting for environmentally friendly, recyclable options in their kitchen, such as stone and wooden work surfaces.

Caple, Shapwick, Ceramic Sink.

With these key design elements in mind we have put together our top home and kitchen product picks for this year. These ‘must have’ items are ideal for new kitchens or perfect additions if you’re planning a re-vamp of your existing kitchen.

Aarke Carbonator II.

Introducing the Aarke Carbonator II. Not only does the Aarke sparkling water maker look stylish but it is built from quality components too! The Aarke Carbonator II is the world’s first sparkling water maker with a stainless steel enclosure.

If you love a little fizz in your water then this fabulous product would make a fantastic addition in your kitchen. It will save you lugging heavy bottles of sparkling water home from the supermarket and reduce plastic waste at the same time!

It can be used with AGA, Sodastream, Linde, Sodabär, SodaMagic, Vikingsoda and many other standard cylinders, 400-425g / 60l made for sparkling water makers. It is available in a variety of colours including copper, white, brass, black and stainless steel.

Abode Hex Tap Range.

Abode launched a new tap range last year; The Abode Hex. This wonderful collection of kitchen taps ooze industrial style and we have no doubt these will be flying off the shelves this year.

Consumers are opting for darker tone units in their kitchen. Dark, concrete palettes and navy tones are popular colour choices for kitchen furniture and 2020 we expect to see more pastel shades being used in kitchen design. Metallic accessories will compliment both darker and pastel shades perfectly and the Hex is no exception!

Quality and style come hand in hand with the Abode Hex Tap Collection. Subtle yet eye catching, the Abode Hex is totally on trend! It is the fine detail of the Hex collection that really sets them apart from anything else on the market. Unique details such as the industrial styled handles and hexagonal features on the spout co-ordinate beautifully with latest kitchen trends.

You’ll discover brushed brass, brushed nickel or black with styles to suit everyone. Models include a single lever mixer, single lever pull out, dual lever monobloc and single lever professional taps.

Quooker Hot Water Tap.

Hot water taps are a great, sustainable investment. Quooker boiling water taps provide instant boiling water which saves you time, money and energy. Instant boiling water means you use only the water you need, when you want it which is great for the environment. With running costs as low as 3p per day you’ll reduce your energy bills too.

New kitchens and those hoping to re-vamp their kitchen this year should consider a hot tap! The Quooker Fusion is an excellent choice. It is available with a modern square or round spout in a number of striking finishes. Choose from gold, black, stainless steel, polished chrome and even patinated copper. It fits into a standard tap hole so can be fitted into an existing kitchen too!
