Geepas GIC6131 Double Burner Infrared Cooker, 3600W Ceramic Hob with 99-Minute Timer, 9 Heat Settings & Child Lock — Black

The Geepas GIC6131 is a twin-zone infrared cooktop that solves a problem most UAE kitchens run into sooner or later: you want
the speed and control of an electric hob, but you do not want to replace every pot you own.
That is the practical difference between infrared and induction, and it is worth understanding before you buy anything in this
category.
Infrared vs induction — the part most listings skip
An induction cooker only works with magnetic cookware. If your pan does not stick to a fridge magnet, induction will not
heat it. That rules out most aluminium degchi and patila, clay handi, copper, glass and ceramic pots — which is a genuine problem
in a lot of UAE households.
Infrared works differently. The ceramic surface itself heats up and transfers that heat to whatever sits on it. So the GIC6131
works with every kind of cookware you already own — aluminium, stainless steel, glass, ceramic, clay, copper, cast iron. There
is also no magnetic field, so no concerns about magnetic radiation.
If you cook with a mix of pots and pans, or you use traditional cookware, infrared is almost always the right choice.
Is this the right cooker for you?
Best for: Apartments and studios without a built-in gas hob, bachelor accommodation, staff housing, offices and pantries, holiday
homes, and anyone who wants a second cooking surface for Ramadan, large family cooking or entertaining. Also a strong choice if
you cook with aluminium or clay pots that induction cannot handle.
Not ideal for: Anyone wanting the instant heat-up and instant cut-off of induction — infrared takes longer to warm and, because
the glass retains heat, it stays hot for a while after switching off. It also needs a dedicated high-load socket; do not run it through a
light-duty extension lead. If you want maximum speed and you already own magnetic cookware, an induction model may suit you
better.
Key features
Two independent cooking zones — a 1800W main zone and a 1800W second zone, each with its own control, so you can boil
rice on one while simmering curry on the other 
Works with all cookware — aluminium, stainless steel, glass, ceramic, clay and copper. No need to buy special pans
No magnetic radiation — infrared heating produces no magnetic field
9 temperature settings — enough range to move from a gentle simmer for sauces and milk through to a hard sear or a fast
boil
99-minute programmable timer — set it and walk away; the cooker switches off on its own
Soft finger-touch controls — a flat, sealed panel with no knobs to trap grease. Wipe it clean in one pass
2-digit LED display — clear readout of your setting and remaining time
Child lock — locks the panel so settings cannot be changed by accident. Worth having in any family kitchen
Four-way safety protection — overheat protection, over-current protection, and both high and low voltage protection. The
voltage protection matters in the UAE, where supply fluctuation in older buildings and labour accommodation is a real cause of
appliance failure
Toughened glass cooking surface, 280 × 560 mm — high temperature resistant, easy to wipe down, and it sits flat on any
worktop
Portable — no installation, no gas connection, no fitting cost. Plug it in and cook
