BlueStar introduces its first-ever 48” Induction Range, expertly crafted to enhance the home cook's experience with groundbreaking features and exceptional power.
This innovative 48” Induction Range boasts the largest cooking surface in its class, featuring six oversized cooking zones for maximum versatility. Two expansive 11" zones, the largest in the industry, and four 9" zones offer ample space, while a bridge function creates the most powerful zone on the market, reaching 7,400 watts for oversized cookware like roasting pans and griddles. The unit includes two bridges. The 11" zones provide 2,600 watts of power, the 9" zones deliver 2,100 to 2,300 watts, which can increase to 3,700 watts through the power boost function for rapid boiling or intense searing.
The highly responsive induction technology offers 12 heat levels in each cooking zone, all controlled by precision knobs. BlueStar’s induction system manages and optimizes the power to ensure that cooking will not be disrupted. The advanced Power Optimization System redistributes power smartly across each zone and prevents the cooking process from stopping on any of the zones. A gentle keep-warm and simmer function are also available to maintain low, even heat across the surface. Safety is paramount, with features like automatic pan detection, quick-to-cool surfaces, and a child-safety lock for peace of mind.
Designed for durability, the range features an industry-first matte-finish cooktop. This stunning and durable textured matte black surface is the first of its kind in the industry and is scratch-, stain-, and fingerprint-resistant, which keeps the glass looking newer for longer. This revolutionary cooking surface is 80% less reflective than the standard induction glass surface—creating its warm yet soft appearance. The new cooktop receives 80% fewer scratches, ready to stand up to everyday wear and tear from pots, pans, and utensils. The top is heat resistant up to 1,300°F without expanding or contracting. Its smooth surface and inherent durability allows for easy cleaning.
A BlueStar exclusive, each cooking zone is equipped with a patent-pending Power Level Indicator Light, the dynamic red light power bar provides a visual cue to the intensity of the heat level and which zones are in use. LED indicators are at the center of the range, displaying power levels, power boost, bridge function, hot surface alerts, safety locks, and more. Additionally, the intuitive display will show graphics to inform non-compatible cookware.
The 48" Induction Range also features two True Convection ovens, including one full-size oven accommodating commercial 18" x 26" baking sheets. With eight cooking modes—including Bake, Convect Bake, Roast, Convect Roast, Convect, Broil, Proof and Dehydrate. The extra-large True Convection oven allows for consistent, multi-rack cooking, while the 90-minute express clean cycle and ContinuClean™ technology simplify cleaning. The user-friendly 7" color touchscreen allows for QuickStart(™) cooking in 3 easy touches.

The Design Process
BlueStar reviewed induction products from around the world to blend the strengths of cultures and technologies into an innovative range that redefines induction cooking in the US.
Performance has always been at the core of the BlueStar brand. As the US market adapts more and more to induction cooking, our goal is to aid in the transition of the overall cooking experience. To provide an enhanced visual cue of the heat level on each zone, a groundbreaking feature was developed. A power-level indicator light bar replicates the visual cue of a traditional flame. This cooking solution pairs the precision, safety, and speed induction is known for with the sense of visual control home cooks are accustomed to. Additionally, to enhance the overall design and cooking experience, knobs were chosen to control the power output for each zone. The knobs provide a tactile experience for adjusting the levels of heat, and additionally, they can be customized with the option of endless colors or ten plated metal options.
To maximize cooking, our unique power optimization system intelligently distributes power across all six zones, ensuring optimal performance and energy efficiency. This technology allows for precise, real-time power adjustments for maximum efficiency without compromising the cooking experience.
We chose premium materials to ensure durability and elevate the overall user experience.
The matte black glass surface was a deliberate choice, combining aesthetic appeal with practical benefits. This finish not only adds a sleek, modern look but is also resistant to scratches, glare, fingerprints, and damage from cookware.
