For those who dont know the brand name Gaggenau, I would put it in the most simplest comparison 'it is the Rolls Royce/Bentley of appliances'. Gaggenau has been around for many centuries and its name comes from a small town in Germany.
The range of appliances is vast including large capacity ovens built in ovens, steam ovens, coffee machine.....etc (the list is endless).
I came across Gaggenau appliances almost three years ago now and since then I have met many committed customers of Gaggenau who have had the appliances fitted for more than 20years.
Amongst the appliances is the 90cm gas burner hob KG491 210. Available in stainless steel with aluminium control knobs, but certainly for the serious cooks who love to cook on gas.
In total it has 5 burners (total of 17kW) including a large wok burner in the centre.
It has an amazing fast ignition autmatic with one hand operation.
The width of 91cm is perfect when cooking with large pots and pans as you can still use the surrounding burners.
Gaggenau also have introduced this gas hob to be used with bottled gas for them awkward situations.
