Samsung CTR164NC01/XTR Ceramic Electric Built-In Cooker

Samsung CTR164NC01 60cm Built-In Ceramic Electric Hob

▶ Reliable Ceramic Cooking from Samsung

The Samsung CTR164NC01 is a 60cm built-in ceramic electric hob that delivers reliable, everyday cooking performance in a clean, modern format. Samsung's engineering expertise, best known from its consumer electronics, extends to kitchen appliances — and this ceramic hob reflects the same commitment to quality and user-friendly design that characterises the brand's wider product range. With its smooth flat surface, intuitive controls, and durable ceramic glass construction, the CTR164NC01 is a dependable choice for households that want a straightforward, low-maintenance cooking surface backed by a globally trusted brand.

▶ Four Cooking Zones for Everyday Flexibility

The CTR164NC01 features four cooking zones of varying sizes to accommodate a range of pot and pan diameters simultaneously. Whether you are boiling a large pot of pasta, frying in a wide pan, simmering a small sauce, or warming a single portion, each zone can be set to the appropriate heat level independently. The different zone sizes allow you to match the heated area to the base of each pot for efficient energy use and more even cooking. This flexibility across four zones makes the CTR164NC01 well suited to family cooking, where multiple dishes often need to be cooked at different temperatures at the same time.

▶ Easy-to-Clean Smooth Glass Surface

One of the most practical advantages of a ceramic hob is the ease of cleaning. The CTR164NC01's smooth, flat surface has no raised edges, burner grilles, or recessed areas where food can accumulate — making post-cooking clean-up quick and simple. Spills cool and dry on the surface without burning on firmly, and can be wiped away easily with a damp cloth or ceramic hob cleaner. Regular, quick cleaning after each use keeps the surface looking pristine and ensures consistent heat transfer across each cooking zone. For households where kitchen maintenance time is limited, the low-effort cleaning of this hob is a genuine daily benefit.

▶ Residual Heat Indicators for Safety

For safety in the kitchen, the CTR164NC01 is equipped with residual heat indicators for each cooking zone. These indicators illuminate on the hob surface when a zone is still hot after the hob has been switched off, providing a clear visual warning that the surface should not be touched or used for placing items. The indicator remains lit until the surface has cooled to a safe temperature, ensuring that adults and children alike have a clear signal that the hob is safe to approach. This important safety feature reduces the risk of accidental burns and provides reassurance in any kitchen environment.

▶ Precise Heat Settings for Every Cooking Task

The CTR164NC01 offers multiple heat settings for each cooking zone, allowing you to select the exact level of heat required for each dish. From a barely perceptible warmth for keeping food at serving temperature to full power for bringing water rapidly to the boil, the available settings cover the full range of everyday cooking needs. The ability to set each zone independently allows you to cook different dishes simultaneously at their ideal temperatures — something that makes a significant difference when managing a complex meal with multiple components cooking at different rates.

▶ Seamless Built-In Installation

The CTR164NC01 is designed for integrated built-in installation, fitting flush into a standard worktop cut-out to create the clean, level surface that characterises modern kitchen design. The flat ceramic glass surface sits at worktop height, creating a seamless and spacious-feeling cooking area. This style of installation is popular because it makes the kitchen feel larger and more cohesive, with the hob and surrounding worktop forming a continuous, uninterrupted surface. Installation requires a standard electrical connection, and the hob's dimensions conform to widely used cut-out specifications.

▶ Samsung Quality for Long-Term Reliability

The Samsung CTR164NC01 benefits from Samsung's considerable investment in research, materials, and manufacturing quality control. As a global technology leader, Samsung applies rigorous standards to its home appliance range, and this ceramic hob reflects those standards in its construction, performance, and longevity. Whether you are fitting out a new kitchen or replacing an existing hob, the CTR164NC01 offers the combination of brand reliability, practical performance, and clean modern design that makes it a confident choice for any household. Backed by Samsung's after-sales support, this is a purchase you can make with complete peace of mind.
