At a glance
This 60cm Chef ceramic cooktop is a practical choice for households wanting straightforward electric cooking with four zones and simple knob controls. It suits everyday meals, smaller family kitchens and standard bench cut-outs, with a handy 2.3kW zone for faster boiling or searing. The easy-clean black glass surface is another plus. Its main limitation is that it offers basic controls and fewer advanced features than premium induction models.

Easy cleaning score
8/10 - smooth ceramic glass surface is easy to wipe down, though spills may need prompt cleaning after cooking.
Kitchen integration fit

- Stylish and Functional Knobs: Provides a practical control layout with a classic design that suits many kitchens.
Q: Does this ceramic cooktop need special induction-compatible cookware
A: No. This ceramic cooktop heats through the glass zones, so it works with most flat-based cookware made for electric cooking. You do not need induction-specific pans, but warped or uneven bases can reduce heating performance.
Q: Will it replace an older 60cm cooktop in my bench
A: Chef CHC6402BD is a 60cm cooktop, so it can suit many like-for-like replacements in a standard bench. Exact cut-out dimensions are not listed, so the existing opening and circuit should be checked and discussed with your electrician before installation.
Q: How quickly can the powerful zone boil or sear
A: Chef CHC6402BD includes a 2.3kW zone for higher-heat cooking such as boiling water or searing in a frypan. It gives more heat than the other zones, but adjustment is still manual across six power levels rather than automatic pan sensing.
Q: Are the controls touch or standard rotary knobs
A: No touch controls here. Chef CHC6402BD uses rotary knob controls, which suit buyers who prefer direct manual heat selection. The trade-off is a more traditional layout, rather than a flat glass fascia with touch keys.
Q: Is the glass safe to touch after cooking ends
A: No. Chef CHC6402BD can stay hot after a zone is switched off, which is why it includes a hot surface indicator. That light helps show when the ceramic glass still holds residual heat, but it does not cool the surface any faster.
Q: Why choose ceramic if you want straightforward everyday cooking
A: Because Chef CHC6402BD keeps operation simple with knob controls and six heat settings across four zones. It suits buyers who want familiar electric cooking, but ceramic heat response is generally less immediate than induction.
