Hi all,

Sorry for this kinda of stupid question.

Will be collecting keys for my resales flat soon.

Think won't be doing much reno for the kitchen since it is in good condition but will be changing hood & hob.

As per topic, how do i go about taking measurement for the hob so that I can get a new one that fits?

Thanks.

since there's already an existing hob then take that measurement. It'll also be good to take down the make and model of that hob and get the specification from the respective website of the manufacturer, if any.

Visual size does not count. It's the size of the cutout that matters. If the existing hole is already squarish, and the preferred design has big circular edges, then even the countertop also need to change. Hob and hood has zero lead time, so no need to rush this replacement.

Hi hello88

Thanks for your advice, finally got the dimensions from the manufacturer.

Hi yoongf, Pls correct me if I am wrong, what you mean the most imptly is the dimension of existing hole, cutout and the shape of the hole? for the visual part as long as the dimensions is greater than the cutout dimension will do?
