P.O.APrice on application — every exceptional kitchen begins with a conversation
The professional gas cooktop at the heart of the Vario 400 system — solid brass burners on heavy cast supports, engineered for the cook who wants flame, precision and presence in equal measure.
- Full 100 cm professional gas cooking surface
- Solid brass burners machined for clean, controllable flame
- High-output centre burner for searing and wok cooking
- Heavy cast pan supports for the largest cookware
- Precision controls for true low-simmer accuracy
- Composes flush with other Vario 400 modular elements
The Vario 400 gas cooktop is Gaggenau at its most uncompromising: a full 100 cm of professional cooking surface built around solid brass burners, each machined for a clean, controllable flame and set on substantial cast supports that take the weight of the largest cookware without complaint. It is the choice of cooks who want the immediacy of gas and the theatre of an open flame, expressed in Gaggenau's austere stainless-steel design language.
The burner array spans gentle simmer to a powerful high-output centre burner for searing and wok work, with precise controls that make the fine adjustments serious cooking demands. As the anchor of the Vario 400 range, it is designed to sit flush alongside other Vario elements — an induction surface, a teppan yaki, a deep fryer or a steamer — so a cook composes exactly the cooking suite they want, edge to edge, like a professional line.
This is the philosophy that defines Gaggenau's flagship series: the kitchen as a workshop, assembled from precision instruments rather than bought as a single compromise. Burner configuration, gas type and surrounding modules are specified during consultation.
