Cooking on a single ring without committing to a full cooker, this Ochama portable induction hob sits in the same space as other budget countertop induction plates from brands like Salter and Tower. It’s aimed at quick, controllable heat for small kitchens, student rooms, caravans, or as an extra zone when your main hob is busy. Induction heats the pan rather than the surface, so it tends to respond fast and wastes less heat into the room.
Who is this induction hob for?
If you want rapid boiling and better simmer control than many cheap ceramic hotplates, 2000W and 10 heat settings give you more usable steps between “barely warm” and “too hot”. Just note you’ll need induction compatible cookware (a magnetic base) for it to work.
- 2000W max output, useful for bringing water to the boil quicker on a single plug.
- 10 heat levels, helps you fine tune frying, gentle sauces, and reheating.
- Portable format, suitable for occasional use, spare cooking space, or taking away.
