Bora Induction Hob - Recessed
I recently had a new kitchen installed including a Bora X Pure induction hob, which is fantastic. I’d paid the worktop company extra to have the hob recessed into the worktop.
I’ve been left with an expansion gap that is bigger on one side than the other. Some parts of the expansion gap have had a rubber seal fitted but not the whole way round. Both the rubber seal and the surface of the hob are not flush with the worktop, meaning that a lot of very small bits of food are being caught in the gap.
Wondering if anyone can offer some advice as to whether this is to be expected or the result of poor installation?
Thanks so much
Sarah

To put hob on kitchen island or not to put hob on kitchen island?
Comments (28)Hi amfork, I went ahead & put the hob on my island & am delighted I did. I find it really is so much nicer looking out at the kids/my husband & being able to chat to them while I prepare meals as opposed to facing the wall with my back turned on everyone. I put a 4 ring induction hob on the island & put a 5 ring gas hob on counter facing wall. I did this as I have a large extended family & we frequently have get togethers. It’s great for catering for big events. However, I use the 4 ring induction hob on a daily basis. Hope this helps! Best of luck with your project, Claire...See MoreHouzz Live Chat - Designing a Dream Kitchen, 1 pm, 15 July 2016
Comments (80)A15) @Dara Cooke: If you can't afford a quartz or granite worktop from day one then I would recommend using a laminate worktop as a temporary solution. If you don't put tiles up as a backsplash then replacing the worktops can be relatively easy in a couple of years....See MoreExtractor in meat free house?
Comments (7)Hi Ed I was struck by the similarity with our new kitchen layout. We recently renovated and I absolutely did not want either an overhead extractor (because I wanted to raise the ceiling), but also did not want to cut expensive quartz for a pop-up extractor which all seem to give trouble eventually and basically don't work! The solution was a German-made Bora induction hob with the downdraft in the middle of the hob. I have to say that it was the best investment we made! Ours could not be ducted outside (which is always the best option) without losing too much efficiency so we went for a filtration system. It works even better than I thought removing all smells and grease! It was really well worth the money. ...and no ugly hood blocking the view out! Watch the videos on the website - it actually does work exactly like that! They also do different options where you have gas on one side and induction hob on the other with the extractor in a panel between the two. Definitely an investment! You really do need extraction though as Fiona said. Strong cooking smells will will be absorbed into your furniture and soft furnishings in an open plan area. The best of luck with your project. I hope you love the end result as much as we love ours....See MoreBora Induction/Extractor Hob
Comments (0)Hi All, I am trying to decide on a recirculating extractor and the kitchen company I am going with are really selling these Bora basic extractor hobs for the kitchen island. They seem like a good idea and look great but I am finding it very hard to find online reviews from people who actually have them & use them in their homes. Could someone please let me their experiences with this product? https://www.bora.com/en/bora-products/bora-basic/...See More
