Very pleased with the purchase will protect my cooker from scratches

This comes folded in very basic packaging however it did flatten fairly well once on the induction hob. Initial few days usage was great - I was impressed. However after 5 days there are patches appearing where the black coating has come off with a simple wipe down in lots of areas. The edges were frayed on arrival and have gradually worsened - see last photo where I’ve folded it over to show the fraying. Overall a great idea but the quality is poor after hardly a week of very little usage. Will be returning. If anyone knows of a good quality one please let me know!

Fits exactly on hob.

For reference; my induction hob is atop my BEKO BD16C65K cooker, and this mat cost me £35.71. I bought this for the advertised translucency and nearly sent it back upon discovering that it blocks maybe 80% of light, so although technically translucent, there's no practical benefit allowing the subtle markings etched on my cooker's hob to be visible through it. If your hob has very high contrast markings and you have very bright lights in your kitchen, or if the markings are actually emitting light, you might be able to see something through it. Why this matters; induction hobs and cookware should be well matched and aligned for good results. A small pan on a large ring, a large pan on a small ring or any pan not properly aligned with any ring is not ideal, so seeing the ring markings on the hob is desirable. I searched for more translucent, or preferably transparent options and found none before getting tired of scrolling through pages of the things, so kept this as it functions no differently to the non-translucent options. I solved the problem of not being able to see where the rings are, by cutting the mat such that a segment of each of the rings' edge is echoed by the mat, while maintaining as much protection for the hob glass as practically possible (see image). With other functionality in mind: 1) it does give real protection to the hob glass and seems to have no effect on the efficiency of the hob, so that's great. 2) the touch controls of my hob can be operated through the mat, and the segmented LED display is actually just about visible, although I can't see the etched markings for the buttons around the LED display, so that's really not helpful, so I cut that section out (see image). 3) it's very grippy, which keeps pans practically glued in place, but also grabs and holds onto every tiny spec of dust floating near it. It can be wiped with a damp cloth to keep it reasonably clear, but let it air dry, since wiping it with a dry towel will render it practically furry! A thorough cleaning is easy with dish soap and water but air drying is essential to avoid the fur. 4) it arrived folded and vacuum packed, so I doubt the kinks will ever fully disappear. It does however lie flat enough (not perfectly) to forgive that. Other orders may be packed differently. Summary: unless (as mentioned above) your hob has very bright markings, I would suggest ignoring the translucency aspect of this mat, and therefore maybe find a cheaper non-translucent alternative that will do the same job in all other respects.

Perfect cover for Induction Hob..

really good
