There’s a new finish on the latest range of gas hobs from Whirlpool and it’s called iXelium. It acts as a barrier against chemical and mechanical agents, preserving the quality and natural shine of stainless steel over an extended period of time. It’s also easy to clean, as food residue doesn’t stick to the surface – simply wipe it with a wet cloth. Shown here is the AKT 725/IXL five-zone gas hob.
