What price would you be looking at for something more suited to a commercial kitchen then?

Most heavy duty induction hobs seem to be in either twin plate or quad plate size. They are around £1500-£3000 for a twin and £2500-£6500 for a quad. Electrolux do some heavy duty use ones for about £2000 for a twin and £3500 for a quad. A friend of mine told me this and they have 2 Electrolux quads in there kitchen, being very pleased with the reliabilty.

You could pay anything up to these sort of figures, but you can get a good commercial induction hob for around £600 - £700 or so. For £1500+ you would be getting some seriously heavy duty kit which would be over kill really!

I have seen one of the Electrolux twin hobs and it was a very nice bit of kit. Not the sort of thing we would buy due to volumns but was ideal for the large hotel restaurant it was in.

Induction is great to cook on...
I got the stellar 700 pans too which induct and look nice...
go for it!
