If you’ve ever dreamed of a kitchen that combines beauty, brains, and space-saving brilliance, your search ends here. The Empire 90cm Downdraft Induction Hob from Kaiser is more than just a statement piece — it’s a revolution in kitchen design. With integrated extraction, cutting-edge induction technology, and our signature Empire bronze accents, this is the only downdraft hob you’ll ever need to consider.
Why Choose a Downdraft Hob?
Let’s be honest — not every kitchen wants (or needs) a bulky extractor hood hanging overhead like a relic from the past. Whether you’ve gone open-plan, fitted a sleek island, or just value your clean sightlines, a downdraft extractor hob gives you the freedom to design without compromise.
Introducing the Empire 90cm Downdraft Induction Hob
Designed to Impress. Engineered to Perform. Clad in moiré anthracite glass ceramic and edged with solid bronze trim, the Empire downdraft hob balances timeless elegance with modern minimalism. But don’t let the looks fool you — under the surface lies an advanced induction system with four QuickHeat cooking zones, including two flexible Free-Zone areas for complete cooking freedom.
And when it’s time to extract? A powerful cylindrical hood rises smoothly from the hob surface, removing steam, smoke, and odours right at the source — before they have a chance to escape into the room.

Built for Real Kitchens
Beyond the showstopping design, every element of the Empire downdraft hob is built with real cooking in mind. Features like the residual heat indicator, pre-cook system, Safety Guard auto shut-off, and child lock give you peace of mind, while the independent timers for all four zones mean your meals are never a minute off.
The extractor’s metal grease filters and optional carbon filters allow for both ducted and recirculating setups, making it suitable for virtually any kitchen — from high-rise flats to countryside retreats.
A Touch of Empire
What truly sets this appliance apart is its design heritage. The Empire collection is inspired by the opulence of the early 19th century, reflected in the solid bronze mouldings that run along the hob’s edge. These aren’t just for show — they also make cleaning easier and give the appliance a tactile richness you won’t find elsewhere.
