OCG705WX 75cm Gas Cooktop
Overview
The Omega OCG705WX is a 70cm five-burner built-in gas cooktop in 304 Grade Stainless Steel — a practical intermediate format between 60cm and 90cm, delivering the full complement of five cooking zones including a Triple Ring Wok Burner at 20 MJ/h within a 680mm wide footprint at $799 RRP. Five independently powered burners cover every everyday cooking scenario: the 20 MJ/h triple ring wok burner for high-heat stir-frying and searing; a 11.5 MJ/h rapid burner for fast boiling and high-heat cooking; two 6.9 MJ/h semi-rapid burners for everyday sautéing and simmering; and a 4.0 MJ/h auxiliary burner for delicate simmering and gentle sauce work. SafeSlide Design Cast Iron Trivets allow cookware to slide smoothly across the cooktop surface between burner positions without lifting; Removable Front Fluted Steel Control Knobs pair directly with the Omega Midnight oven range for a coordinated kitchen aesthetic; precise electric under-knob ignition lights each burner in a single one-hand twist; and Flame Failure Safety Devices on all five burners cut gas automatically if a flame is extinguished. Natural gas and LPG compatible, with an LPG conversion kit and Natural Gas Regulator included. Backed by a 3-year warranty.
Features
Triple Ring Wok Burner — 20 MJ/h
- A triple-ring concentrated burner delivering 20 MJ/h of output — the highest power zone on the cooktop and the dedicated position for wok cooking, searing, stir-frying, and any high-heat technique that requires intense, sustained flame
- The triple ring design concentrates flame under a wok base for more even heat distribution and faster temperature recovery when cold ingredients are added
- The most power-demanding cooking technique — authentic stir-frying — requires a burner that maintains temperature under load; the OCG705WX's wok burner is specifically engineered for this
Rapid Burner — 11.5 MJ/h
- High-output burner for fast boiling of pasta water, rapid heating of large pots, and high-heat everyday cooking tasks that require more power than a standard burner
- Positioned for primary everyday use alongside the wok burner for simultaneous high-output cooking
Two Semi-Rapid Burners — 6.9 MJ/h Each
- Two mid-range output burners covering the most common everyday cooking tasks: sautéing, pan frying, braising, and general stovetop cooking
- Both semi-rapid burners operate simultaneously for full multi-dish capacity during complex meal preparation
Auxiliary Simmer Burner — 4.0 MJ/h
- The lowest-output burner on the cooktop, designed for the most delicate heat-sensitive tasks: gentle sauce reduction, keeping a béchamel at a stable low simmer, melting chocolate, or holding a completed dish at serving temperature
- Gas simmering at 4.0 MJ/h provides more precise low-heat control than an electric element cycling on and off
SafeSlide Design Cast Iron Trivets
- Omega's SafeSlide trivets are engineered with a smooth, stable contact surface that allows pots and pans to slide across the cooktop surface from one burner position to another without lifting
- Reduces the risk of spills when repositioning heavy, full pots during cooking
- Cast iron construction provides durable, stable support for cookware of any weight, from small saucepans to large stockpots and woks
- Heavier and more stable than enamel-coated trivets
304 Grade Stainless Steel — 0.7mm Gauge
- 304 grade stainless steel is the premium standard for kitchen cooktop surfaces — highly resistant to corrosion, heat discolouration, and mechanical wear
- 0.7mm gauge thickness provides a robust, substantial surface that resists flexing and denting
- Wipes clean easily with a damp cloth; the continuous stainless steel surface has no frame gaps or raised borders to accumulate grease and food debris
Removable Front Fluted Steel Control Knobs
- Five removable knobs styled with the same Fluted Steel design used across the Omega Midnight oven range — providing a coordinated aesthetic when paired with an Omega Midnight oven
- Removable for thorough cleaning behind and around the knobs
- Front-positioned controls keep hands away from active burners during adjustment
Precise Electric Under-Knob Ignition
- The ignition system is integrated directly into each control knob — turn the knob to ignite in a single one-handed operation
- No separate ignition button to press; no matches or lighters required
- Simultaneous gas valve opening and spark generation for reliable, fast ignition at every power setting
Flame Failure Safety Device — All 5 Burners
- A thermoelectric safety valve on every burner automatically cuts the gas supply if the flame is extinguished — by boil-over, draught, or any other cause
- Gas cannot flow from any burner when no flame is present
- Continuous gas safety without user intervention, across all five zones simultaneously
Steel Heat Shield
- Included heat shield provides protection to surrounding cabinetry and benchtop surfaces during extended high-temperature cooking sessions
- Particularly important at the wok burner position where 20 MJ/h generates significant radiant heat
Natural Gas and LPG Compatible
- Configured for Natural Gas (NG) as standard
- LPG Conversion Kit included — a qualified gasfitter can convert the cooktop for LPG use without additional parts
- Natural Gas Regulator also included as standard

Benefits
Five Zones in 70cm — No Layout Compromise – A full five-burner complement in 680mm wide delivers every output level needed for complex multi-dish cooking without requiring a full 90cm footprint
20 MJ/h Wok Burner for Real Wok Results – The triple ring wok burner delivers the concentrated, sustained high heat that stir-frying and searing require — techniques where temperature recovery after adding cold ingredients is the difference between a restaurant-quality result and food that stews
Slide, Don't Lift – SafeSlide trivets allow full pots to slide smoothly across the cooktop surface between burner positions — the practical safety advantage that conventional trived designs don't provide
One-Hand Ignition, No Spare Hand Needed – Under-knob ignition activates with the same turn that opens the gas valve — no additional button, no matches, no lighter needed when both hands are occupied in the kitchen
Flame Off Means Gas Off – Flame Failure protection on all five burners eliminates one of the primary gas cooktop safety risks without any manual action required
304 Grade Steel Cleans in a Wipe – A premium continuous stainless steel surface with no frame gaps or raised borders makes the OCG705WX one of the easier gas cooktop surfaces to keep clean in everyday use
