Electric hob with powerful Hi-Light heaters and a refined and durable glass-ceramic coating. The model is positioned by the manufacturer in an affordable price segment and can serve as a good choice primarily for those users who are looking for just a good electric model from a trusted manufacturer. Thus, the Whirlpool AKT 801 NE hob is equipped with a quartet of Hi-Light type burners, which are distinguished by an increased heating rate, which is as close as possible to those of conventional gas models.

The device allows you to use the burners on a timer, there is a separate button for quickly blocking the touch panel. The manufacturer also provides a residual heat indication system. The total power of the heating zones reaches 6.2 kW. This stove is capable of cooking in dishes of completely different sizes, from small to large. The glass-ceramic coating of the working surface makes it much easier to clean the device. This material is easy to clean and resistant to rough mechanical stress.

Model overview based on user reviews  
The Whirlpool AKT 801 NE electric hob features a sleek black glass-ceramic design with four Hi-Light burners of varying sizes, offering touch controls and safety features like a child lock. Users appreciate its stylish appearance and the safety it provides for families with young children. However, the hob requires a powerful 6 kW connection, which may necessitate electrical upgrades at home. Maintenance can be challenging, as the surface quickly shows marks and requires special cleaning products. While some users report satisfaction with its performance, others have faced significant issues, including burner malfunctions and poor customer service, leading to frustration and attempts to return the product. Overall, while the hob has potential, its reliability and service support are areas of concern.

Stylish, powerful and fairly fast electric hob

Both my wife and I liked the glass-ceramic hobs with rapid, or, as they are also called, highlight heaters. These models look very stylish and modern.
I was afraid that such heaters would heat up much more slowly. There is indeed a difference, but it is not at all that great and, in the end, not very noticeable. All burners are of different sizes and have three degrees of maximum power. Heating control - touch buttons on the panel, which is located in the right near corner. The touch panel itself almost does not heat up during operation of the surface and has a blockage from playful children's fingers. My toddler is growing up, who is already a year old, and this purchase has become another step towards a child-safe kitchen. Neat Italian assembly. 24 months of a full warranty, while most manufacturers are limited to one year, give reason for cautious optimism.
To connect, you need a power of 6 kW, which means that no home wiring can withstand this. We had to make a separate powerful input to connect it. The dark glass-ceramic surface looks very good, but it needs careful care. Gets dirty quickly, any drop of water leaves a noticeable mark. Products that have fallen on a hot surface must be removed immediately, because if they burn and char, it will be much more difficult to clean. A scraper for cleaning is included, but you should spend money on special and expensive household chemicals.
I do not recommend the equipment of this office!!! Horrible!

Not detected. We are trying to return it, but the technician refuses to issue a defect report due to factory fault!
In a few days, it completely malfunctioned. It stopped responding to any commands.
We called the service numbers, they told us to unplug it and plug it back in. We have a dedicated breaker for the stove - tried about 10 times, it didn’t work.
We're trying to call the technicians, but they hang up!!!
Problematic model! I do not advise.
