Hi Dazz285.
           Could have been me, banging on about Induction Hob, I got the one from Lidl last year at £25, this Aldi offering looks a little better on spec.

Great for camping, as you can set the power level, so not to trip the EHU.

Andy.

So long as a magnet will stick to the bottom of the pan, then it will be OK on an Induction Hob.

TJ Hughes stores , were flogging of the "Anthony Worrel" pans, starting at £5 for 7" milk pan, the whole range was Induction compatible.

So pans for induction hob's don't need to cost a fortune.

Andy.

P.s. got my Induction Hob pans fron Wilkinsons.

I bought one last year but never got the pans. Just had a look on amazon and the Anthony Worrel" pans are out of stock. Is there some sort of sign that means they are ok to use with induction hobs?

Stainless steel won't work. Guess how I found out.

Heres a quote:


Not all cookware will work with induction stoves. Induction cooking requires ferrous (magnetic) cookware, because it is all about electro-magnetism. Grab a magnet and stick it to the bottom of the pan. If it sticks to it, it will work on an induction stove. Most cookware sold now has an induction symbol on the packaging if it is induction ready or it is clearly stated as a benefit. If in doubt, however, the magnet test will always let you know whether or not you can use it.



Some stainless steel will work but not all. Note copper pans will not work unless they have a steel insert, same for aluminium. Cast iron works brilliantly. We have an induction hob at home, would never change to a different one, very fast, a doddle to clean.

No, hob would just switch off straight away. Confused the hell out of me at first, though the two hobs I had bought were faulty.

Slightly of topic, but on the Gadget show the other day, they showed how electric cars can be kept charged up, from induction plates in the road, and also in parking bays.

Can't imagine trying to fry an egg in the middle of the fast lane on the M6 though, and worse still being run over by a Nissan Leaf, because I never heard it comming.

We bought one from Aldi last year it really is a fantastic hob, very fast. We use the Coleman pan set, it works really well.
