The smooth and elegant look of glass surface hobs has proved a big hit with consumers with its many advantages in style and easy cleaning convenience. The popularity of Whirlpool’s AKT 466 gas hob on black glass has now prompted the company to launch a 75cm white glass version to complement both the Ambient and Glamour white collections.
The attractive new model is both sleek and substantial with its four burners including a four-crown wok burner and robust cast iron supports to give the model a professional appearance and maximum stability. The powerful 3.7kW wok burner makes the model perfect for stir fries and Asian-style cuisine.
Simona Bara, Whirlpool’s Product Marketing Manager, Built-In, comments: “With the kitchen being the pride and joy of the home, more consumers want their appliances to have a distinct, eye-catching appearance as well as being functional. They want hobs that satisfy their needs and fit their lifestyle, and the gas-on-glass style is particularly appealing for its stunning look and convenience. Our new white AKT 466 has a great visual impact and excellent cooking versatility.”
