Induction cooking is rapidly gaining popularity among Malaysian households, thanks to its advanced technology and user-friendly features.
Unlike traditional gas or electric stoves, induction cookers heat food more efficiently and safely by using electromagnetic fields to directly warm your cookware. Let’s explore the key benefits that make induction cooking a smart choice for your kitchen.
1. Power and Speed: Cook Faster Than Ever

Induction cooking heats up much faster than traditional methods. Because it transfers energy directly into your cookware, you can bring water to a boil in just 2–3 minutes.
This is perfect for busy households where every minute counts, especially when preparing quick meals on hectic weekdays.
Designed for professional-grade power and performance, the Electrolux Induction Hob can boil 1 litre of water in just 3 minutes. So you can enjoy tasty meals in no time.
2. Precise Temperature Control
Unlike gas stoves, which are harder to fine-tune, induction cookers offer exact, responsive temperature control. Whether you're simmering delicate sauces or searing meat, you get consistent results every time.
This precision helps avoid overcooking and gives you greater control over flavor and texture.
Electrolux precise temperature control allows you to go from high to low heat instantly so you never undercook or overcook again.
3. Energy Efficiency
Induction cookers are incredibly energy-efficient. Up to 90% of the heat generated is transferred directly to the food, compared to only about 40–50% with gas.
Because cooking is faster and there’s less heat loss, induction helps lower your electricity usage, saving money in the long run.
4. Easy to Clean

Induction cooktops have a smooth glass-ceramic surface that stays cool during cooking, preventing spills from burning or sticking. This makes cleaning quick and easy — a simple wipe with a soft cloth is enough, without the hassle of removing grates or burners.
Electrolux induction hob’s cool, smooth, and flat surface ensures spills do not stick or burn, making it effortless and safe to clean as you cook, while its sleek design enhances the modern look of your kitchen.
5. Cool Touch Surface and Built-in Safety
Induction cooktops stay relatively cool because only the pan gets hot. This makes it safer for families with children or elderly members.
Additional safety features include:
- Auto shut-off when no pan is detected
- Child lock functions
- Residual heat indicators
Electrolux Induction Hob heats the cookware directly while the cooktop stays cool and safe, eliminating worries about accidental burning or a hot cooking environment.
6. Easy to Use
Don’t let the sleek look fool you—induction cookers are beginner-friendly. With intuitive touch controls and pre-set functions, anyone can master them quickly.
You also don’t need to worry about lighting a flame or adjusting knobs. It’s just plug, set, and cook.
7. Sleek, Modern Design

Induction cooktops offer a minimalist, flush design that fits seamlessly into any modern kitchen.
They look premium, are easy to install, and free up visual clutter compared to gas stoves with burners and racks.
8. Cooler Kitchen Environment
Because induction doesn't generate ambient heat like gas, your kitchen stays cooler—especially helpful in tropical climates like Malaysia.
Less heat also reduces strain on your air conditioner, making your home more energy-efficient overall.
From faster meal prep to easier cleanup, the benefits of induction cooking make it a smart upgrade for modern homes. Whether you're saving energy, simplifying your routine, or making your kitchen safer, induction offers a better way to cook.

FAQs
-
Do induction cookers use a lot of electricity?
No. Despite being electric-powered, induction cookers use less energy due to faster cooking and minimal heat loss. Most households see no major increase in their electricity bill.
-
Can any pan be used for induction cooking?
Induction requires cookware with magnetic bases—cast iron, stainless steel, or specially marked "induction compatible" cookware. If a magnet sticks to the bottom, it’s good to go.
-
Can you use a wok on an induction cooker?
Yes, but it should be a flat-bottomed wok made of induction-compatible materials. Traditional round-bottom woks won’t make full contact with the hob surface, reducing performance.
-
Is induction safe for kids and elderly users?
Absolutely. Since the surface stays cool and the cooktop only activates with compatible pots, it's safer than both gas and traditional electric stoves. Auto shut-off and child lock features add extra safety.
-
Is induction cooking suitable for daily use?
Yes. It’s reliable, durable, and fast—perfect for everything from quick breakfasts to elaborate weekend meals.
