High quality induction cooktop with seamless glass top and touch interface
Another addition to the kitchen with induction cooktop from this brand, and coming from HD4928, this is definitely an upgrade with touch buttons, elegant design, and full glass top. All my HD4928's malfunctioned due to water seepage inside from the joint between glass and control panel. This particular model, HD2938 with full glass top addresses the issue to some extent.•••••••••••••••••••🎁 INSIDE BOX•••••••••••••••••••→ Induction cooktop→ Safety leaflet→ User ManualCord length: 1.5 m approxMax power: 2100 wattsWarranty: 1 Year••••••••••••➕ PROS••••••••••••1. Stylish & durable cooktop for the kitchen with full glass top2. Works great with lots of preset options for cooking3. Works with a good range of iron/magnetic base cookware, bottom diameter 12-20cm4. Touch buttons are easy to operate and red led above each button indicates the option selected5. Manual mode in any induction is kind of a blessing to have full control over the cooking process. This ones the most used mode in my kitchen6. Many preset modes can also be adjusted as per the required temperature and cooking time.7. +/- can be used to adjust both temperature and timer8. Childlock feature, which can be used to prevent accidental presses. This thing is a blessing for lets say milk boiling, to prevent spillage due to accidental press and high power leading to sudden rise of milk levels9. Theres direct shortcut to sim/boil/reheat milk or water••••••••••••➖ CONS••••••••••••1. This model slips a lot on the platform as there are no rubber shoes on the 4 legs. I don't understand the reason behind omission of such an important thing. Brands PMs really need to think through.2. Didnt like the red LEDs above all buttons, it could have been made more aesthetic for such a premium device. Theres a big tranparent zone for every LED on the glass top and you can actually see those 10mm Red LEDs, which actually looks ugly. In this era of SMDs, they are still using 10mm ones.3. Price is on the higher side for not much of feature upgrade from HD4928. Could have been better designed.For these cons deducting one star. So a 4-star ★★★★ device.•••••••••••••••USAGE TIPS•••••••••••••••→ Use utensils with induction base only. Normal steel utensils also work but are very less efficient. Aluminium ones won't work here.→ The glass plate gets hot during usage. Handle it with caution. The residual heat indicator remains on to show the status of heat.→ Use child lock to prevent accidental touches, which may lead to improper cooking or even a disaster. These touches are not just limited to children.→ Keep vents clean and have sufficient space around induction, for it to have proper forced air circulation. It's an important process to keep the internals cool as its all electronics inside.•••••••••••••••••••••IMPORTANT ADVICE•••••••••••••••••••••→ Never ever let liquid spill on the induction. It's the major cause of failures in the cooktops. Even though they have addressed that issue in this model, by having full glass top, but still theres a small overlap of 5-7m on both ends of glass, which may lead to water or liquid seepage and damage the electronic circuit there.••••••••••••••••🏆 VERDICT••••••••••••••••This goes by the name and will not disappoint wrt quality and performance of the product. Its one of the best inductions in the market, both looks and functionality wise.

Over all - Good product
This is one of the best inductions on the market with a powerful 2100W max capacity. I’ve used it for a year without any issues, but after that, I started noticing some vibration and increased noise during use. Despite this, the product still works fine.It also comes with a good variety of options and presets, which add to its versatility. A tip: try buying this product during a sale, as the price on regular days tends to be on the higher side.If the vibration or noise worsens, I’ll reach out to Philips and update my experience here.
