Why choose the Kaiser KCT 4146 FI induction hob?
Choose the Kaiser KCT 4146 FI if you want responsive induction cooking in a compact 45cm, three-zone layout.

Compact 45cm Induction Hob with 3 QuickHeat Zones
The Kaiser KCT 4146 FI features three QuickHeat induction zones for fast, responsive cooking. Each zone includes a Power Boost function, allowing you to rapidly increase the heat output when required for tasks such as boiling, searing or preparing meals quickly.
Induction technology applies heat directly to compatible cookware, helping to improve energy efficiency while giving you precise control over cooking temperatures.
Full-Touch Slider Controls and Intelligent System
A full-touch slider control panel with LED display provides simple and intuitive operation. Kaiser’s Intelligent System allows you to manage cooking times, use timers with acoustic alerts and regulate heat levels for consistent cooking results.
The built-in cooking electronics can also bring the cooking zones to maximum temperature quickly before reducing the heat to the selected level, providing greater control during food preparation.
Integrated Safety Features for Everyday Cooking
Safety features include residual heat indicators for each cooking zone, helping you identify when the surface remains hot while also allowing residual heat to be used for more energy-efficient cooking.
A child lock helps prevent accidental operation, while the Automatic Safety Guard shut-off system provides an additional level of protection during use.
Premium Black Glass Ceramic Finish
The black glass ceramic cooktop is finished with faceted edges for a clean, refined appearance. As well as complementing modern kitchen designs, the smooth surface and edge treatment help reduce build-up around the hob and make cleaning more convenient.
With its compact dimensions, three-zone layout, responsive induction technology and integrated intelligent controls, the Kaiser Grand Chef KCT 4146 FI is a practical choice for kitchens where available space is at a premium.
