Product Description

Product Overview:

The Bosch PVS831HC1H is an 80cm Series 6 induction cooktop finished in black ceramic glass with a frameless surface-mount design suited to contemporary kitchen installations. Featuring four induction cooking zones with Bosch CombiZone flexibility, it allows compatible zones to combine into a larger cooking area for oversized cookware, roasting dishes, and griddles.

DirectSelect Multitouch+ controls provide fast access to cooking zones, power levels, timers, and additional cooking functions through a front-mounted touch interface. With 17 power levels available per zone and integrated Power Boost functionality, the cooktop delivers responsive induction performance with rapid heat-up capability for boiling, searing, and high-output cooking.

PerfectFry Plus continuously monitors pan temperature during frying to help reduce scorching and overheating. Home Connect compatibility allows additional functionality through the Bosch Home Connect app, including Favourite button personalisation and remote monitoring support.

Extra Information:

The PVS831HC1H is compatible with induction-ready cookware only. Cookware must contain a magnetic base to activate the induction zones. Cookware manufactured from glass, aluminium, or copper without a magnetic base will not function on the induction surface.

Bosch induction technology heats cookware directly rather than heating the cooktop surface itself, helping provide faster response times, improved efficiency, and easier post-cooking cleaning. The smooth ceramic glass surface allows spills to be wiped away more easily due to reduced residual surface heat compared to conventional electric cooktops.

The Home Connect platform enables additional connected functionality through compatible smart devices, including custom Favourite button configuration and appliance status monitoring.

Included Products / Accessories:
