Where to buy the Kaiser KCT 6745 FI ElfAD hob
🏆 Review & price summary
The Kaiser KCT 6745 FI ElfAD is a 59cm built-in induction hob designed around flexible pan placement rather than four conventional fixed circles. Its two adaptable cooking areas, booster heating, individual timers and full-touch controls give it a strong everyday specification, while the ivory Art Deco styling makes it particularly suited to period-inspired kitchens.
✓ Key strengths
- ✓ Two flexible cooking areas can accommodate rectangular cookware or be divided into smaller sections
- ✓ Fast, responsive cooking
- ✓ Good day-to-day control
- ✓ Child lock, residual-heat indicators and automatic safety shut-off are included

Worth considering

Design and installation
The Kaiser KCT 6745 FI ElfAD is a 59cm built-in induction hob with an ivory ceramic-glass surface and antique-gold metal trim. Its overall dimensions are 5.5cm high, 59cm wide and 52cm deep, with a stated cut-out of 5cm high, 56cm wide and 49cm deep.
The flat glass surface should be straightforward to wipe clean, but installation is not a plug-in job: the 7kW electrical load and the manufacturer's requirement for qualified installation mean the kitchen's electrical supply should be checked before fitting.
Cooking flexibility
The has four induction cooking zones, including two flexible areas. Each flexible area can operate as a 200 x 400mm rectangular zone or as two 200 x 200mm sections, giving more freedom than a conventional fixed-circle layout.
Power-function boosting is available, and the induction design provides responsive heat control for boiling, frying and simmering. The four-zone layout is practical for everyday family cooking, although larger five-zone hobs can accommodate more pans simultaneously.
Controls and safety
Full-touch electronic controls are paired with POWER SLIDE adjustment, while each cooking zone has its own timer or minute counter. The hob also includes a keep-warm function and electronic precise simmer control, which automatically reduces heating after the selected temperature is reached.
Safety features include a child lock, separate residual-heat indicators and Safety Guard automatic switch-off. The residual-heat indicators remain illuminated until the relevant zone falls below 60°C.
Efficiency and everyday use
The manufacturer's EU product information gives a cooking-surface energy consumption figure of 194.15Wh/kg. Induction heating transfers heat directly to suitable cookware and the residual heat can be used for warming dishes, but actual energy use will depend on pan choice, cooking time and settings.
This is a design-led hob whose strongest practical advantages are its flexible cooking areas, booster function and comprehensive controls. Its main compromises are the need for appropriate electrical installation, the absence of integrated extraction and the four-zone rather than five-zone capacity.
