Even the large cooking zones of the new AEG Rapid Power cooktops heat up ultra-fast and bring water to a boil up to 25% faster than conventional ceramic cooktops. With the expandable cooking zones, you can prepare dishes in pots and pans of various diameters. The unique Hob2Hood connection system of this cooktop communicates with Hob2Hood range hoods, automatically turning on the lighting and adjusting the fan based on the cooking process as needed. The Stop + Go function of this cooktop now gives you the freedom you've long dreamed of. Simply activate it, and the cooking process will be paused.
