2x2300W induction zone with booster; 3200W. 1x1800W induction zone with booster; 2500W. 1x1400W induction zone with booster; 1800W. Bridge function allows you to connect 2 cooking zones into 1 large one when needed. All works as described, well.

We have had this hob for 4 years now. [Ordered 2013-04-19 for £500 including delivery and VAT.] I have never used the bridge function, but it may be useful for others. It heats up quickly, so am not waiting for water to boil for very long for things like pasta etc. It cleans very well. You have to manage the setting slightly if you want to simmer as even on some of the lower settings 3, 4, 5 it can still bubble too much. I don't think I would go back to a gas hob, as this is much quicker to cook with. I would recommend.
