At a glance
This 90 cm Smeg induction cooktop is a premium option for households that cook often, entertain, or need space for multiple pots at once. Its free-positioning Area surface, TFT display, and pan-tracking functions make cooking flexible and precise. It is especially strong for large meals and varied cookware layouts. One limitation is that its advanced design and premium price may be more than some kitchens need.

Things to consider
Its premium feature set and large 90 cm format can be excessive for smaller households or buyers who only need a basic induction cooktop with standard fixed zones.
Family cooking suitability
Excellent for family cooking and entertaining thanks to its 90 cm width, six-pot capacity, and flexible cookware placement.
Energy efficiency score
8.5/10 - induction cooking transfers heat directly to cookware, and the Eco-Logic Advance power management can moderate consumption down to 2400 W.
Cookware compatibility assessment
Best with induction-compatible magnetic cookware; highly accommodating in layout because pots can be positioned freely across the cooking area.
Safety rating
9/10 - strong household safety features include child lock, automatic safety switch off, and residual heat indicators.
Ease of cleaning
9/10 - the flat glass ceramic surface has no burner grates, making routine wipe-downs simple.
Key benefits
- Area technology: Lets you place cookware more freely across the surface instead of working within rigid fixed cooking zones.
- Six-pot capacity: Supports cooking with up to six pots or pans at once, making it well suited to large meals and entertaining.
- 7 inch TFT display: Gives clear visual feedback on pot position, shape, and size so you can manage multiple cooking tasks more confidently.
- Follow Pot function: Keeps settings active when a pot is moved, helping maintain continuity during busy cooking.
- Auto-pot detection: Recognises cookware placement automatically, reducing setup steps when starting to cook.
- Touch and slide controls with 17 power levels: Allows finer heat adjustment for boiling, searing, simmering, and delicate tasks.
- Dedicated cooking functions: Includes melting at 44 °C, keep warm at 70 °C, and automatic boiling at 92 °C for more consistent results.
- Glass ceramic surface: Creates a sleek cooking area that wipes down easily after everyday use.
Q: How does the Area technology on this Smeg cooktop differ from a standard zoned induction hob?
A: Area technology removes fixed cooking zones, so pans can be placed more freely across the cooking surface. That gives more flexibility for larger cookware or different pan layouts, but usable space still depends on the size and spacing of the pans you place on it.
Q: Can you move a pot during cooking without losing the heat setting on the Smeg SIA1963DS?
A: Yes. The Follow Pot function is designed to keep the active settings with the pot as it is moved across the hob. That makes it easier to reposition cookware while cooking, instead of stopping and manually selecting a new zone each time.
Q: What does the 7 inch TFT display actually do on the Smeg SIA1963DS?
A: The 7 inch TFT display gives visual control of the hob and works with pan detection to recognise the pot’s position, shape and size. In daily use, that means the interface responds to where the cookware sits rather than relying only on fixed marked zones.
Q: Why does this Smeg induction hob have an automatic boiling function set at 92 degrees Celsius?
A: It is designed for controlled simmering rather than a full rolling boil. The 92 degree Celsius setting helps with recipes that need steady heating and less guesswork, such as poaching or delicate sauces, where overheating can affect texture or consistency.
Q: Is the Smeg SIA1963DS a good option for melting chocolate or keeping food warm without overcooking?
A: Yes. It includes a 44 degree Celsius melt function for delicate ingredients like butter or chocolate, plus a Keep Warm setting for holding finished dishes at serving temperature. Those preset temperatures are useful when low heat control matters more than speed.
Q: Does the glass surface on the Smeg SIA1963DS have raised zones or ridges that catch on cookware?
A: No. Smeg describes this model as having a smooth ceramic glass surface with under glass serigraphs, so there are no raised zone markings on top. That helps pots slide more quietly and makes wipe-down cleaning easier after cooking.
