if u did google a bit, u will noe that there is no research to proof that induction hobs are actually bad for health. The magnetic waves die off around a few cm so it wont b harmful to us when we are cooking. Many ceramic sellers will put a test pen and show that the light lid and it is harmful. That is the magnetic waves, when u turn it off, the wave will b gone nth harmful.

The best is still gas, google more n u will noe why.

If u wan den u can consider to get a hybrid hob like Fotile HL7B, 1 gas burner and one induction zone. Simple things like maggi mee u use induction, no gas also can use induction. Asian cooking, stir fry or u wanna use a wok den can use the gas burner.

For more info regarding induction hobs, u can have a read here.

http://theinductionsite.com/how-induction-works.shtml

i bliv u got those pic from vess delicooker website, i heard customers saying their hob is with anti radiation thing. If u ask vees, they will say their hobs are good and induction is bad. If u ask induction salesman they will say their hobs are good and ceramic is bad. SO the best thing is to google and read up yourself. Though i specialize in gas hobs, i google to get info on electric hobs and conclude tat induction is better as it is safer and save electricity bill. Did u notice that most restaurants will use induction instead of ceramic like those steamboat restaurants? If u ask me, ofcoz gas is better as eletrical stuff tend to spoil faster

nowadays young house owners prefer electric hobs as their are more trendy and easier to clean. They dont really cook much. For me, gas is always my first choice but if u wan me to choose electric hobs, i will go for Induction.

Copied from this web

To date no specific studies of the effect of induction hobs on health have been carried out

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there is no compelling evidence of medium-frequency magnetic fields having long-term effects on health.

Like i said earlier, there are no research showing tat induction hobs are bad for health, those selling ceramic hobs salesman just talk rubbish and show the test pen to scare consumers

1) u can put it on top of ur table without making a hole for it.
2) YOu will need to prepare 15amp -20amp for the hob, make sure your wiring can support the load.

u should check the product spec and c the power rating, like how many watt, then consult ur wiremen. They are the specialist, nth will go wrong.

Eg: ceramic hob with left zone 1.8kw and rite zone 2.2kw total = 4kw. 4000w/240v = 16.7amp. (calculation is based on info from the internet, i don guarantee it is 100% correct)
