Comparison Bosch PGH 6B5 O90R stainless steel vs Bosch PBP 6B5 B80 stainless steel

The number of gas burners in which the flame is located not in one, as in standard burners, but in two (or three) rows — in other words, in the form of two (three) rings, one inside the other. Burners with this design have more power than conventional single-row ones and heat the bottom of the pan more evenly, which can be especially useful when frying. In addition, it is believed that such heaters are best suited for wok pans. At the same time, for most tasks, such increased power is unnecessary. Therefore, most models with this function have only one turbo burner.

The control panel is located not on the front but on the side — usually on the right. Side controls not only gives the device an original appearance, but can also be convenient from a practical point of view. In particular, this arrangement makes it possible to reduce the size of the panel in-depth, which can be useful when the depth of the tabletop itself is narrow.

The material from which the grates on the gas burners of the hob are made. Electric hotplates do not require grates.

— Steel. Steel grates have a relatively low weight, good strength and at the same time — low cost. For aesthetic reasons and for additional protection they are usually covered with a special heat-resistant enamel. Contaminants are quite easily cleaned from such enamel, but it is undesirable to process it with rough methods — otherwise, chips and scratches may appear on the surface. In general, despite their general practicality, steel grates are considered less advanced than cast iron grates and are somewhat less commonly used in hobs. However, if you do not load the hob with large pots, buckets, etc., the difference is not critical, and the service life of steel grates is often comparable to the “life span” of the hob itself.

— Cast iron. Cast iron grates look more nice and massive than steel ones, and they weigh much more. It can be attributed to the advantages — in the case when the grilles can be removed: a large weight contributes to stability. In addition, such structures are strong, durable and tolerate even high loads. They cost a little more than steel ones. As a result, cast iron is a more popular material for grates than steel. It is worth noting some difficulty in cleaning from pollution; on the other hand, cast iron grates usually do not have additional c...oatings, and you can not be afraid to spoil them with wire sponges or abrasive products.

General dimensions of the device in width and depth. Depth, in this case, refers to the distance from the leading edge to the trailing edge (when viewed from the user's side). Note that the external dimensions of the hobs are often larger than the dimensions for embedding (see below).

The country in which, according to the manufacturer, this or that model is manufactured. Despite the fact that most of the manufacturers are concentrated in China, European factories for the production of household appliances have not disappeared. And certain models can be produced on them. In general, such a division into a Chinese or European plant should not particularly affect the quality of products, but still the stereotype of a reliable European assembly ( Germany, Spain, Italy, Poland, Turkey) is present in us. However, it is possible that the model may have a country of manufacture, for example, Poland, and in the store under the same article you will meet China.
