Design and Features

The Miele KM7201FR is a well-designed induction hob that stands out from the crowd with its stainless steel surround, protecting the side of the hob from chipping. The four cooking zones are versatile, catering to pans of various sizes, and the TwinBooster mode allows for impressively fast heat-up times.

Performance

Thanks to its powerful TwinBooster mode, the Miele KM7201FR can deliver impressive heat-up times, even when cooking with multiple pans at once. The hob is also incredibly efficient, able to heat a 1.5-liter of water from 20°C to 90°C in just over two minutes with a total 3650W of power.

Additional Features

The Miele KM7201FR comes with a range of clever features, including Power Boost and TwinBooster modes, which can be activated by tapping the number nine setting twice and thrice respectively. There’s also a Keep Warm mode, which can be accessed by pressing the gap between the ‘0’ and ‘1’ controls, and a feature that allows you to switch to maximum power and then return to the original established mode after a set amount of time.

Conclusion

If you’re looking for a powerful induction hob with tons of extra functions, the Miele KM7201FR is a great choice. However, be wary that you don’t forget about all of those hidden features, as they can be difficult to access.
