The Bora Basic is a ceramic hob and the Pure is Induction.

Induction hobs are faster to heat up and cool down meaning it’s easier to control your cooking. However some people with pacemakers avoid induction hobs and prefer ceramic hobs. Ceramic hobs are normally cheaper.

Latest advice appreciated on the best big induction downdraught hobs please (Berbel, Bora, Gaggenau, Siemens, Bosch or others). We want best steam and fat clearance rates, quietest motors, easy-clean (unsure re self-clean, ducted or recirulated air). Berbel's FaceBook page features lots of customer complaints regarding after-sales service and spare parts, but some seem due to Covid delays which we think is unavoidable; another mentions guests sitting "in a haze" from the recirculated air and obviously nobody wants that! We need to order very soon but definitely don't want ceiling extraction. Many thanks for prompt replies!

BORA X Pure v BORA Pure

Ive had two Bora Basics so far. Both times when purchasing ive looked at the competition and other options. If im honest the Bora represents value for money compared to those other options. Especially if you dont want an extractor in your eyeline over your island/peninsula, or a flush mounted ceiling extractor. A decent induction hob + the costs assassociated with buying and fitting a flush ceiling extractor will be at least as expensive as the Bora Pure. The fact it’s a beautiful looking bit of kit is just a bonus!! PS im now looking at my third Bora (due to a flood) and for me its still the best option. Currently trying to convince my wife we need the X Pure!

Help - venting induction hobs
Q
Comments (14)
A recent kitchen I supplied, the customer purchased an Elica (Nikola Tesla about 1400.00) and the kitchen fitter was so impressed with it he bought one for his own new kitchen. Always best to duct out and the bigger the pipework (ie 6 inch) the better and the least amount of bends means the less resistance, the more efficient it works and the least noise. So a 2.5m run shouldn't be a problem if done properly. If you fit only 4 inch pipework then its not going to work as well and be noisy. Extraction is governed by building regs Part F which covers new builds, extensions and conversions, for an existing kitchen re fit you can't make the extraction worse than the original kitchen. The difference between combi/bridge and flex for hobs is that 2 zones can be combined, for bridging its just both zones on but with flex induction it has more heating zones and the hob senses the shape/size of the pans and just works in those zones. Venting hobs are like icebergs, very little on show but you can lose 2 drawers underneath to fit it all approx 200mm+ needed (including worktop thickness), then you have the ducting to fit down the back even for recirculating to vent at floor level. All ducted hobs only have 1 filter which is the grease filter and this is suitable for a dishwasher (haven't come across a disposable grease filter for years and then they were a paper filter for integrated extractors), for recirculating you need a carbon filter to clean the air, some of these can be 'recharged' by putting in an oven, others need replacing with a new filter, the manufacturers operating instructions will advise.
