The BORA M Pure is one of the newest additions to the growing lineup of BORA cooktop extractor systems. It combines two types of induction cooking in a single, compact unit — one side with zone induction for small pots and pans, and one side with surface induction for larger cookware. But what does that mean for real life? Kitchenfinder takes a closer look.
How the Bora Cooktop Extractor Works
On the left side, the zone induction cooktop is designed for small pots, espresso makers, and day-to-day cooking. On the right, two square induction zones can be combined to create a single large zone — helpful for roasters or big pans.
The entire system is controlled by a slider control panel with clear white LEDs — designed to be intuitive and minimal, just like other BORA cooktop extractor models.
For those who want a little color, the air inlet nozzles can be swapped out for different colors like orange, jade green, or sunshine yellow.

Advantages
- Versatile for daily cooking: Small pots, large pans — the dual induction zones adapt to how you cook.
- Compact design: The BORA M Pure doesn’t take up much space — a plus in small kitchens or open layouts.
- Effective ventilation: Like all BORA cooktop extractor systems, steam and odors are pulled down immediately at the source.
- Small design accents: The replaceable nozzles let you add a subtle personal touch without going overboard.

Possible Drawbacks
- Not plug-and-play: This system needs to be professionally installed and planned — it’s not a quick fix for an existing kitchen.
- Takes getting used to: Switching between zone and surface induction can take some adjustment, especially if you’re used to classic electric or gas cooktops.
- Premium price point: Like most BORA cooktop extractor systems, the M Pure is an investment — it’s worth weighing how much you’ll really use the extra flexibility.
Kitchenfinder Tip
If you like hosting or have a big family, the bridging function on the surface induction can be really useful for bigger pots or grill pans. But for daily meals, the simpler zone induction might be more than enough.
It’s always worth checking out a working display at a local showroom. Seeing how the zones switch in real time can help you decide if it’s the right fit for your style of cooking.

Kitchenfinder Thoughts
The BORA M Pure isn’t about flashy looks — it’s about quiet performance and flexibility. It’s well-suited for homeowners who want a minimalist, open kitchen that still adapts to different types of cooking.
But it’s not for everyone. If you’re a casual cook or mostly use one or two pans at a time, a simpler induction setup might be easier to justify. For those who like to experiment and want their kitchen to feel integrated and calm, the BORA cooktop extractor system in the M Pure brings both versatility and subtle design touches.
