We recently bought a Bosch induction hob approx. £800. It arrived with the glass smashed, the supplier replaced the hob but surprisingly did not want the other one back. Out of curiosity I looked up the cost of getting a replacement glass from Bosch and the cost was £195 and it simply required 12 screws to fix it in place.

As far as I know there is one supplier that produces the majority of glass tops for manufacturers and I cannot imagine there will be a great variation how these things are attached so if you can get hold of one replacement should be quite straight forward.

Thanks - good to know. I might ask Smeg directly of they can provide one. Hope they don't send me to an 'authorised' service company.


I don't think they'll encourage DIY repairs... YMMV


The very problem I had with Liebherr when my fridge thermostat failed
about a month after the 2 year warranty expired. :-(
