60 cm cook top
Customer service was excellent I bought a Chef model to replace an existing Chef model that has issues. I bought the 60cm model to fit into the existing cutout and when I went to Install the new 60cm is actually only 59cm. Had to caulk around it to seal up the existing cutout in the countertop which was not the plan. If you’re going to sell a 59cm can you put that on the box or make the consumer aware that it is not 60 please.

Disappointed
It works very well; however, after one use, it was badly marked. I didn't over-boil anything on it, I didn't try to clean it while it was hot, and I didn't drag my pots over the surface. After a couple of hours cleaning the marks with help from the internet, I managed to get the marks just about off. I have never used it again. I really wish I had bought a better cooktop. I am pretty angry with this purchase.

At a glance
This 60cm ceramic cooktop is a practical choice for households wanting a simple, familiar electric cooktop for daily cooking. It suits standard replacement installations, offers easy-clean glass ceramic, and includes a 2.3kW front zone for faster boiling. The trade-off is that it uses basic knob controls and six power levels rather than advanced touch functions or flexible cooking zones.

Things to consider
It is a straightforward ceramic cooktop with knob controls, so it does not offer premium extras like touch controls, pause functions, timers, or flexible zone configurations.
Family cooking suitability
Good for small to medium households with four zones for routine family meal preparation
Easy cleaning score
8/10 - smooth glass ceramic surface is simple to wipe clean after normal cooking mess
Kitchen integration fit
8/10 - 60cm format and 560mm x 490mm cut-out make it a practical fit for many replacement installations
Safety rating
8/10 - residual heat indicators and thermal overload protection add useful everyday safety features
Key benefits
- Four Cooking Zones: Lets you prepare multiple pots and pans at once for everyday meals.
- 2.3kW Powerful Zone: Provides stronger heat on the left front zone for faster boiling and searing.
- Six Power Levels: Gives you straightforward heat adjustment for simmering through to higher-temperature cooking.
- Right-Hand Knob Controls: Makes settings easy to reach without leaning across the full cooktop surface.
- Glass Ceramic Surface: Wipes down more easily after spills and splatters than many traditional surfaces.
- 560mm x 490mm Bench Cut-Out Fit: Helps suit many standard 60cm cooktop replacement projects.
- Residual Heat Indicators: Shows when zones are still hot after cooking for added day-to-day safety awareness.
- Thermal Overload Protection: Adds protection by helping manage excessive heat during operation.
Q: Will this fit a standard 60cm cooktop cut-out?
A: Yes, if your benchtop cut-out is 560mm wide by 490mm deep. That makes it a practical replacement for many standard 60cm cooktops, but the cut-out size matters more than the nominal 60cm label when checking fit.
Q: Does this cooktop need special pots and pans?
A: No. This ceramic electric cooktop works with flat-based cookware and does not rely on magnetic induction-compatible pots. Pans with warped or uneven bases can heat less evenly, so stable, flat cookware is the better match.
Q: Is the left front zone strong enough for fast boiling?
A: Yes. The left front cooking zone reaches 2300W, so it is the best zone for fast boiling or searing. Heat still builds more gradually than induction, so buyers wanting instant response may prefer a different cooktop type.
Q: Are the side knobs easier to use than touch controls?
A: Yes. Chef CHC642BB uses physical knob controls with six power levels, which many buyers find simpler for quick heat changes. The trade-off is a more basic control style, with no touch panel or advanced smart functions.
Q: Do the right-side controls get in the way while cooking?
A: No, for most kitchens the right-side controls are there to make access easier without reaching across hot zones. If you are used to front-mounted controls, the layout may take a little adjustment during the first few uses.
Q: Does the black ceramic glass show marks easily?
A: It can. The black ceramic surface is easy to wipe down, but like most ceramic glass cooktops it can show marks from spills, cooked-on residue or rough cookware. It suits buyers who want easy cleaning, not a surface that hides every mark.
