so my current (cheap IKEA induction hob) beeps when the wrong pots are on it, when the pots are not placed precisely enough, and of course also when you wipe the hob wet in the hob or touch area.
The expensive ones do that too. But you can temporarily or/and partially turn off the beeping.
The beeping has nothing to do with the handling of control knobs, but with the "surface sensors," no idea what they are called. I mean the technology of the induction surface.
I expect faster operation and easier cleaning from (removable or retractable?) knobs or levers at the front.
The easiest cleaning is when you only have sensors, no knobs.
For you, this removable knob would be an alternative... but it would still be a knob – the common induction hobs have nothing, only sensors. The handling is quite simple :rolleyes:
