Hisense HHU60GAGR is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 24,400, a 60cm built-in gas hob with four burners and a 3.5kW wok burner. The Hisense HHU60GAGR arrives brand new and sealed, with a stainless steel top, cast iron pan supports, front-mounted control knobs and electric ignition. A flame failure device cuts the gas if a burner goes out. Combined burner output reaches 8.0kW across one auxiliary, two semi-rapid and one wok zone. Collect it from our store at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Designed for homeowners, landlords and kitchen fit-out contractors, the Hisense HHU60GAGR turns a plain counter into a fitted cooking station. Families cooking ugali, chapati and githeri every day need one strong burner and three gentler ones running together. The Hisense HHU60GAGR gives exactly that split, so a heavy sufuria boils on the wok zone while stew simmers beside it. Real estate agents and short-stay hosts furnishing apartments in Kilimani and Kileleshwa prefer built-in hobs because they look finished and clean quickly. Flat stainless steel leaves no hidden corners where spilt oil and grit can collect.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell hobs without guidance, Mascom International explains cut-out sizes and gas connection before you pay. Some budget hobs use thin wire supports and leave out flame failure protection altogether. The Hisense HHU60GAGR includes cast iron supports and safety valves as standard. Buyers throughout Kenya tell us front knobs are far easier to reach than controls tucked behind hot pots. Visit our Kimathi Street showroom to see the Hisense HHU60GAGR in person, or order by WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery to your door.
Common Questions About the Hisense HHU60GAGR
Is the Hisense HHU60GAGR worth KSh 24,400 in Kenya?
Yes, the Hisense HHU60GAGR gives you four burners, cast iron pan supports and flame failure protection for KSh 24,400 at Mascom International. Spread across two years of daily cooking, that works out to about KSh 33 per day, and the cost keeps falling every year after. You also get a 3.5kW wok burner for fast boiling and frying, which many entry-level hobs leave out. Hisense has an official presence in Kenya, so parts and service are easier to find than with unbranded imports.
Can the Hisense HHU60GAGR wok burner handle a large sufuria for ugali?
Yes, the 3.5kW wok burner on the Hisense HHU60GAGR is the strongest of its four zones and suits large sufurias and heavy pans. It produces twice the heat of each 1.75kW semi-rapid burner, so water for ugali or a family pot of rice boils faster. The cast iron pan supports hold a full sufuria steady while you stir stiff ugali with a mwiko. Meanwhile, the 1.0kW auxiliary burner keeps tea warm or a stew simmering gently beside it.
Can I light the Hisense HHU60GAGR by hand during a KPLC power cut?
Yes, the burners on the Hisense HHU60GAGR run on LPG, so cooking continues when KPLC power goes off. Only the electric ignition needs mains power at 220-240V. During an outage, hold a long match or gas lighter at the burner, then press and turn the knob. Keep the knob pressed for a few seconds so the flame failure device warms up and keeps gas flowing. Once lit, the burner behaves exactly as it does with power on, so a blackout never cancels supper.
Will the Hisense HHU60GAGR connect to a 13kg K-Gas or Total cylinder?
Yes, the Hisense HHU60GAGR is built for LPG, the bottled gas sold across Kenya by K-Gas, Total, ProGas and other refillers. Connect it to a 6kg or 13kg cylinder through a low-pressure regulator and an approved gas hose. Keep the cylinder in a ventilated spot and run the hose without kinks or sharp bends. A qualified fitter should test every joint with soapy water before first use. The hob is set up for LPG, so it is not meant for piped natural gas.
What happens if a draught blows out a flame on the Hisense HHU60GAGR?
The flame failure device on the Hisense HHU60GAGR shuts off gas to a burner whose flame goes out. A small sensor beside the burner stays hot only while the flame burns. If a boil-over, a draught from an open window or a curious child puts the flame out, the sensor cools and the safety valve closes. Unburnt gas stops leaking into the kitchen while you are away from the stove. For homes where house helps, children or elderly relatives cook, that protection matters daily.
Hisense HHU60GAGR or a tabletop gas cooker, which is better?
The Hisense HHU60GAGR is better for a fitted kitchen, while a tabletop gas cooker suits renters who move often. A tabletop cooker sits loose on the counter, collects grease underneath and often lacks flame failure protection. The Hisense HHU60GAGR drops into a 560 x 480mm opening, sits flush and wipes clean in one pass. Its cast iron supports usually outlast the thin wire grills found on many tabletop units. If you own your home or manage rental units, the built-in hob wins long term.
What countertop cut-out does the Hisense HHU60GAGR need?
The Hisense HHU60GAGR needs a countertop opening of 560 x 480mm. The top plate measures 600 x 510mm, and the whole unit stands 90mm tall, so leave clear space underneath for the gas inlet and ignition cable. Granite, quartz and laminated board counters all take it, provided the opening is cut cleanly and squarely. Share these numbers with your carpenter or fundi before cutting. Mascom International confirms the measurements on WhatsApp if your house in Ruiru or Kitengela is still under construction.
Who should buy the Hisense HHU60GAGR, and who should skip it?
Buy the Hisense HHU60GAGR if you are fitting out a kitchen counter and want four gas burners with a strong wok zone. It suits homeowners, landlords furnishing rental units and contractors finishing several apartments at once. Skip it if you need an oven and have no cabinet space for one, because this is a hob only. A Hisense freestanding cooker from Mascom International combines burners and an oven in a single unit instead. Short-term renters who cannot cut into the counter should also look elsewhere.
Technical Specifications
Burner Layout and Heat Output
- 3.5kW wok burner brings large pots of water to the boil quickly, cutting waiting time for family meals.
- Two 1.75kW semi-rapid burners handle everyday frying, stews and chapati on standard pans without scorching the base.
- 1.0kW auxiliary burner holds a gentle flame for simmering beans, warming milk or keeping a kettle hot.
- Combined output of 8.0kW lets all four zones run at once during busy weekend or holiday cooking.
- Four separate zones mean breakfast, lunch preparation and tea can share the hob without anyone waiting for space.
- Mixing burner sizes lets you match flame to pot, wasting less gas than running one oversized ring.
Ignition and Gas Safety Systems
- Electric ignition lights each burner with a press and a turn, so no matchbox needs to sit near the cooker.
- Flame failure device closes the gas supply when a flame dies, stopping unburnt gas from filling the kitchen.
- Safety valves protect children, visitors and house helps from leaks caused by boil-overs or strong draughts.
- Ignition runs on a 220-240V 50Hz supply, matching ordinary household mains with a socket fitted near the counter.
- Burners themselves need no electricity, so manual lighting with a match keeps cooking going whenever power drops.
- No electric hotplate means the hob draws almost no power, keeping monthly KPLC tokens for lighting and appliances.
Surface and Pan Supports
- Stainless steel top wipes clean of oil, tea spills and soot using a damp cloth and mild detergent.
- Cast iron pan supports carry heavy sufurias and cast iron pots without bending through years of daily use.
- Cast iron grids keep round-bottomed woks and small milk pans stable while you stir or flip.
- Stainless steel resists rust in humid kitchens far better than painted surfaces that chip and corrode over time.
- Burner caps and supports lift off for cleaning, so boil-overs never bake into corners you cannot reach.
- Heavy cast iron absorbs knocks from falling lids and spoons that would dent lighter enamel or wire grills.
Controls and Everyday Handling
- Front-mounted control knobs sit at the counter edge, so you never reach across a hot pot to adjust heat.
- One knob per burner keeps operation simple for every member of the household, from teenagers to grandparents.
- Flame height adjusts from full heat down to a low simmer, giving fine control over sauces and porridge.
- Clearly separated burner positions let large and small pans sit side by side without crowding each other.
- Flush stainless finish gives the counter a clean, built-in look that suits modern apartment and family kitchens.
Installation and Dimensions
- Top plate measures 600 x 510mm, fitting standard 60cm kitchen counters and cabinet runs without custom joinery.
- Countertop cut-out of 560 x 480mm lets your carpenter prepare the opening before the hob even arrives.
- Overall height of 90mm leaves usable cabinet space beneath for drawers, pots or cleaning supplies.
- Net weight of 7.1kg means one person can lift the hob into place during fitting.
- Packed carton of 640 x 555 x 145mm fits easily in a car boot for store collection.
- Gross packed weight of 7.9kg keeps delivery simple, even up stairs to an upper-floor apartment.
Gas Supply and Connection
- Factory set for LPG, the bottled gas used in most homes that have no piped gas supply.
- Connects through a low-pressure regulator and an approved gas hose, both bought separately from the hob.
- Gas inlet sits underneath, so the hose runs hidden inside the cabinet rather than across the worktop.
- A professional leak test with soapy water confirms every joint is sealed before the first meal is cooked.
- Not intended for piped natural gas, so confirm your supply is LPG before ordering.
