I like the round design too. I didn't expect the 'bonus' pan to be much
good, but was very pleasantly surprised! I don't know how well the hob
and pan will last, but so far, I'm pleased with my purchase.

The highest wattage I've seen for a single induction hob in the UK, is
2000. I noticed a double at 2800w on Amazon.co.uk.
