Flexible induction cooking for larger dishes
With three MultiZones, this Smeg induction hob creates generous cooking areas by joining two contiguous zones together. This makes it ideal for large cookware, griddles and oversized dishes, while maintaining precise and responsive heat control.
Induction technology heats quickly and accurately, helping with everything from intricate cooking to gentle simmering. Heat is generated only when a pan comes into direct contact with the selected cooking zone, improving safety around children and optimising power consumption by heating the pan itself rather than the surrounding hob surface.
Induction cooking is faster than gas, taking only a little over a minute to boil a pint of water. As the hob surface remains easier to clean, splashes are less likely to burn onto the top and can be wiped away with ease.
AutoPot detection and Auto-Vent convenience
AutoPot detection identifies exactly where your pot is positioned and activates the correct zone instantly, helping you cook with effortless precision every time.
The Smeg SIM3864N also connects with a compatible hood via Bluetooth. The hob and hood work in sync, adjusting automatically as you cook for a more convenient kitchen experience.
Elegant Evo Slider controls
The Evo Slider controls are backlit with refined white LEDs and remain visible only when needed. This creates a sleek, uncluttered finish when the hob is not in use, while providing discreet visibility and fast, intuitive operation during cooking.
Grill function with rapid preheating
The dedicated grill function provides even heat distribution and requires just two minutes of preheating, helping you achieve grilled results quickly and consistently.
Timeless Smeg design
With its strict design form and simple classic aesthetic, the Smeg SIM3864N fits easily into both contemporary and traditional kitchens. It forms part of a co-ordinating collection of appliances, including ovens, coffee machines, hobs, extractor hoods, dishwashers and wine coolers, with matching controls and handles.
