At a glance
This 80cm ASKO induction cooktop is a spacious four-zone option for larger kitchens and households that often cook multiple dishes at once. Its wider layout, bridging zone and touch controls make it practical for large pans and flexible meal prep. Safety features and the ceramic glass surface add everyday convenience. The main limitation is that it offers four zones rather than the expanded zone count found on some premium larger cooktops.

- Family Cooking
- Multi-Pot Meals
- Large Saucepans
- Flexible Weeknight Cooking
- Entertaining Prep
Where it works best
- Family Kitchen
- Open-Plan Home

Who it’s for
- Families
- Home Cooks
- Busy Households
- Renovators
- People Upgrading from a 60cm Cooktop
Things to consider
While the 80cm width gives better pan spacing and flexibility, it still has four cooking zones, so shoppers wanting maximum simultaneous cooking capacity may prefer larger premium models with five or more zones.
Family cooking suitability
High - the 80cm width, four zones and bridging function make it well suited to households preparing multiple dishes at once.
Energy efficiency score
8/10 - induction cooking transfers heat directly to cookware and the boost function helps speed up heating tasks.
Cookware compatibility assessment
Requires induction-compatible cookware; best suited to households already using magnetic-base pots and pans.
Safety rating
9/10 - strong everyday safety features including child lock, residual heat indicators, auto pot detection and pause function.
Ease of cleaning
9/10 - the flat ceramic glass surface is easy to wipe down and has no burner grates or raised elements.
Key benefits
- 80cm Wide Surface: Gives more space between pans than a standard 60cm cooktop, helping reduce handle clashes when cooking multiple dishes.
- 4 Induction Zones: Supports cooking several components at once for everyday meals and larger household routines.
- Bridging Zone: Lets you combine two zones for oversized cookware such as grill plates or larger pans.
- Touch Controls: Makes it easy to adjust heat and timer settings with precise, modern controls.
- Auto Pot Detection: Activates the cooking area when suitable cookware is placed on the zone for more intuitive operation.
- Boost Function: Delivers extra heat when needed to speed up tasks like boiling water.
- Pause Function: Temporarily stops cooking so you can manage interruptions without losing your settings.
- Child Lock and Residual Heat Indicators: Adds peace of mind by helping prevent unintended operation and alerting you when the surface is still hot.
Q: Will my current pots and pans work on this induction cooktop?
A: Only induction-compatible cookware will work. Pots and pans need a magnetic base for the ASKO HI2842FBG1 to detect and heat them, so plain aluminium, copper or glass cookware without a magnetic layer will not cook.
Q: How does the bridge function work for larger cookware?
A: The bridge function links two cooking zones so the ASKO HI2842FBG1 can heat larger cookware more evenly. It suits oversized pans or a grill plate better than placing them across separate zones that are not designed to work together.
Q: Is an 80cm cooktop easier for multiple large pans?
A: Yes. The 80cm width spreads the four zones further apart, so there is more room for larger saucepans and fewer handle clashes during busy cooking. It is a practical step up if a standard-width cooktop feels cramped with several pans on at once.
Q: What does auto pot detection mean in everyday cooking?
A: Auto pot detection means the ASKO HI2842FBG1 activates a zone when suitable cookware is placed on it. It will not heat properly with the wrong pan material, so this feature adds convenience but does not remove the need for induction-ready cookware.
Q: Are touch controls practical when I need quick heat changes?
A: Yes. Touch controls suit quick heat changes because power levels and timers can be adjusted directly on the glass surface. The cooktop also includes a boost function for faster heating and a pause function when cooking needs to stop briefly.
Q: Is the black ceramic glass hard to keep clean?
A: No. The black ceramic glass is simple to wipe because the surface is flat and has no burner caps or grates. Spills are usually easier to remove once the zone has cooled, and the residual heat indicators show when the glass is still hot.
