Product Description
The Buffalo 600 Series 2 Ring Electric Hob is a compact, hardwired countertop cooking unit built for commercial use. It carries two independently controlled solid plate rings — a smaller and a larger element — giving an operator two simultaneous cooking zones on a 400mm-wide footprint. It is straightforward in purpose: controlled heat across two positions, built to the standards expected of professional kitchen equipment.
In a working kitchen environment this hob earns its place as a reliable secondary or supplementary cooking station. It suits sites where gas is unavailable or unsuitable, or where a compact electric option is needed to extend an existing cook line without significant infrastructure changes. The sealed, pressed hob top resists spillage penetrating the unit and simplifies cleaning at the end of service — a practical advantage in a fast-paced environment where cleaning time matters.
Key operational advantages worth noting:
- Two independently controlled cooking zones for simultaneous tasks
- Sealed hob surface reduces cleaning time between and after service
- Compact 400mm width fits tight countertop positions or sits neatly on matching 600 Series cupboard bases
- Hardwired connection supports stable, consistent power delivery
- Part of the 600 Series range, allowing a uniform cook line alongside other Buffalo 600 Series appliances
Installation requires a hardwired electrical connection — this is not a plug-in appliance, so a qualified electrician will need to commission it. The 400mm width is well suited to smaller kitchens, serveries, and prep areas, though for sites running sustained high-volume service across multiple cooking tasks, a broader or more powerful multi-ring unit would be worth considering.
This hob is best suited to cafés, small restaurants, staff canteens, and hospitality operations where a compact secondary cooking station is needed. It also works well in catering units or mobile kitchens where space and electrical load are both constrained. For operations requiring a higher cooking output or more zones, a larger model from the same series or a heavier-duty range may better meet the demand.
If you are building out a 600 Series cook line or want to discuss whether this unit suits your site's electrical supply and service requirements, our team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
- This hob is hardwired and requires a dedicated electrical connection installed by a qualified electrician. It is not a plug-in appliance, so that installation cost and access to a suitable supply should be factored in before purchase.
- It works well as a secondary or supplementary cooking unit, or as the primary hob in lower-volume operations such as small cafés or staff canteens. For kitchens running sustained high-output service across multiple dishes simultaneously, a unit with more rings or a higher combined power output would generally be more appropriate.
- It can be used as a freestanding countertop appliance or positioned on top of a compatible Buffalo 600 Series 400mm cupboard base. Either way, make sure the surface is stable, heat-resistant, and that the hardwired supply can be routed safely to the installation position.
