The Buffalo Extra Wide Griddle is a countertop electric contact griddle with a 738x330mm flat steel cooking surface. It runs on a 2.9kW element and features two independently controlled heating zones, allowing different areas of the plate to be set at different temperatures simultaneously. Construction is in 430 stainless steel throughout, with side splash guards and a removable drip tray included as standard.
In a working kitchen, the independently zoned plate means you can hold cooked items at a lower temperature on one side while cooking fresh product on the other — useful during a busy breakfast or brunch service where timing across multiple items matters. The wide format suits kitchens running eggs, bacon, pancakes, or flat-bread items in volume, where a narrower griddle would create a bottleneck. Recovery after loading is reasonable for a unit at this power level, though operators with very high continuous throughput should factor that into their assessment.
Practical day-to-day advantages include:
- Two independent temperature zones for flexible simultaneous cooking
- Side splash guards protecting surrounding surfaces during shallow frying
- Removable drip tray making grease management straightforward between service periods
- Flat stainless steel plate that cleans down quickly with a scraper and cloth
- Countertop format requiring no fixed installation — plugs into a standard commercial socket
Being a countertop unit, installation is straightforward — no gas connection, no extraction requirement beyond normal kitchen ventilation, and no fixed electrical work if a suitable socket is already in position. At 32.5kg it is manageable to reposition if needed. The footprint is wider than a standard griddle, so bench space should be confirmed before ordering.
This griddle is well suited to cafés, hotel kitchens, and pub catering operations running regular breakfast or grill menus. It works well as a primary griddle in a smaller kitchen or as a supplementary unit in a larger operation. For sites running very high-volume continuous service, a heavier-duty model with a higher power rating may be a better long-term fit.
If you are unsure whether this unit matches your service volume or bench configuration, the team are happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
£222.00(£266.40 inc VAT)
The Buffalo steel plate electric griddle is a countertop cooking unit designed for frying, sealing, and griddling a wide range of food items in a commercial kitchen environment. It uses a solid steel cooking plate heated by an electric element, with a thermostat to set and maintain working temperature and a thermal cut-out for safety. The on/off switch gives straightforward control over the unit during service.
In practice, this griddle suits operations where consistent surface cooking is needed throughout a service period. The steel plate holds heat reasonably well for steady-volume cooking — think breakfast service in a café, a small hotel kitchen, or a compact restaurant producing grilled items to order. The thermostat range gives operators enough flexibility to work across different food types without the plate being locked to a single temperature setting.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:
- Simple thermostat control reduces the risk of overcooking during busy service
- Thermal cut-out provides an automatic safety layer if the unit overheats
- Solid steel plate is robust and straightforward to clean down between covers
- Countertop format keeps the footprint manageable in tighter kitchen layouts
- 430 stainless steel construction holds up to regular commercial use and cleaning routines
Installation is straightforward as a plug-in electric unit, but you should confirm your counter space and socket provision before ordering. The unit weighs 20kg, so positioning it sensibly at the start saves awkward repositioning later. It is not a high-output griddle intended for continuous heavy throughput — operators running a large breakfast operation or high-volume grill station may find a larger or more powerful unit better suited to the demand.
This griddle is a practical choice for cafés, small restaurants, hotel kitchens, and similar settings where moderate-volume griddling is a regular part of service. If you are unsure whether the cooking area or output matches your service volumes, it is worth having a conversation before you commit.

The Fagor FT-G910 LR is a countertop gas griddle from the 900 Series range, featuring an 800mm wide cooking surface divided equally between a smooth plate and a ribbed plate. The 20mm thick mild steel construction gives the cooking surface the thermal mass needed to hold temperature under load — an important practical consideration in any griddle intended for continuous service use.
In a working kitchen, the value of a half ribbed configuration is versatility without the footprint of two separate units. The smooth half handles eggs, fish, bacon and delicate items where direct contact matters; the ribbed side produces char marks on meat, burgers and vegetables where presentation is part of the dish. Both zones operate independently, which means the griddle can support two different sections of a menu at the same time during a busy service. At 18.5kW total output, heat-up is quick and recovery after a cold batch is fast enough to keep pace with steady throughput.
From an operational standpoint, this griddle offers several practical advantages:
- Split cooking surface handles varied menu items without a second piece of equipment
- Heavy mild steel plate retains heat well and recovers quickly between batches
- Push-button ignition reduces the time needed to bring the griddle into service
- High-capacity grease drawer extends the interval between empties during a long service
- Part of the Fagor 900 Series, so it aligns physically with other units in that range
Installation requires a natural gas supply with an appropriate regulator and a flexible connection compliant with current gas safety regulations — a Gas Safe registered engineer must carry out the connection. At 128kg this is a substantial piece of equipment; bench strength and load capacity should be confirmed before installation. The unit is countertop only, so a suitable stand or fabricated bench is required. Extraction or canopy ventilation is necessary to manage combustion gases and cooking fumes in line with kitchen ventilation standards.
This griddle is well suited to pubs, cafés, hotels and mid-sized restaurant kitchens running a varied grill menu across both service periods. The dual-zone surface makes it particularly practical where a kitchen needs flexibility from a single piece of equipment rather than two dedicated units. For very high-volume operations — large contract catering sites or high-turnover burger concepts — a larger or floor-standing model may provide more appropriate capacity.
If you are unsure whether this configuration is the right fit for your service volume or kitchen layout, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
£2,054.00(£2,464.80 inc VAT)
The Fagor FT-E910 L is a countertop smooth plate electric griddle from the 900 Series range. It uses a 20mm thick mild steel cooking surface across an 800mm wide plate, heated by a 15kW three-phase element. The smooth plate configuration suits a broad range of proteins, vegetables, and breakfast items where consistent, even contact heat is required throughout service.
In a busy kitchen, recovery time is one of the more critical factors on a griddle. The 15kW element supports rapid heat recovery after loading, which helps maintain consistent cooking temperatures when the plate is under steady pressure during a lunch or dinner rush. The mild steel plate retains heat well once at temperature, which is a practical advantage when cooking volumes are high and the plate is in near-constant use.
From an operational standpoint, the FT-E910 L is straightforward to work with:
- Smooth plate surface simplifies cleaning between covers and at end of service
- High-capacity grease drawer reduces the need for mid-service emptying
- Stainless steel construction withstands the demands of a professional kitchen environment
- Sits comfortably within the Fagor 900 Series suite if you are building out a modular cooking line
This is a three-phase appliance drawing 15kW, so it requires a suitable three-phase supply with appropriate isolation at the point of connection. At 137kg, positioning and installation will need to account for the weight of the unit, and adequate ventilation above the cooking surface is necessary regardless of whether a canopy or extraction system is already in place. This is a countertop model, so it will need a suitable stand or fabricated surface capable of bearing the weight — Fagor 900 Series stands are a common pairing.
The FT-E910 L is well suited to mid-to-high volume operations: pub kitchens, hotel breakfast service, busy cafés, or any site running a griddle continuously through service. If your throughput is more modest, a smaller or lower-powered model may represent a better fit. Equally, sites running very high volumes across multiple cooking zones may want to consider a wider or higher-output option.
If you are unsure whether this griddle matches the demands of your kitchen — in terms of capacity, power supply, or how it fits within an existing cooking line — our team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
£1,383.00(£1,659.60 inc VAT)
The Fagor FT-G905 L is a countertop natural gas griddle from the 900 Series range, fitted with a smooth mild steel cooking plate. It is a straightforward, practical piece of equipment designed to handle a consistent volume of griddled food throughout a busy service — from breakfast items and burgers through to fish, vegetables, and flatbreads.
The 20mm thick mild steel plate retains and distributes heat evenly across the cooking surface, which matters when you are cooking in batches under pressure. Recovery after loading is prompt, meaning the plate returns to working temperature quickly rather than dragging during a rush. Push-button ignition makes it easy to light and straightforward for any kitchen team member to operate without specialist training.
From an operational standpoint, a few practical advantages are worth noting:
- Smooth plate surface suits a wide variety of proteins, vegetables, and flatbreads
- High-capacity grease drawer reduces the need to stop and empty during service
- Stainless steel construction holds up well to daily cleaning routines
- Part of the Fagor 900 Series, so it aligns with other appliances in that suite if you are building a matched cooking line
- Countertop format keeps the footprint contained on prep or pass areas
Installation requires a natural gas supply with an appropriate flexible connection and isolation valve. At 70kg, the unit is substantial for a countertop griddle — the surface it sits on should be rated to take the load and be constructed from a non-combustible material. Ventilation above the unit via a suitable extraction canopy is a practical necessity in most commercial kitchen environments, and building regulations or local authority requirements may apply. This model runs on natural gas only; if your kitchen uses LPG, a different configuration would be needed.
The FT-G905 L is well suited to cafés, small restaurants, burger operations, and hotel kitchens running moderate to busy service volumes from a countertop setup. It performs reliably where a compact, single-zone smooth griddle is the primary requirement. For sites cooking at higher volume or needing a wider cooking surface, there are larger griddle options available within the range.
If you are unsure whether this griddle fits your service volumes or kitchen setup, the team is happy to talk through the detail before you commit to an order.
£2,054.00(£2,464.80 inc VAT)
The Fagor FT-G910 L is a countertop natural gas griddle from the 900 Series range, fitted with an 800mm wide smooth mild steel cooking plate. It is designed for commercial kitchens that need a reliable, high-output flat griddle for continuous service — cooking proteins, vegetables, eggs, and flatbreads directly on the plate surface without the fuss of additional cookware.
In practice, the 18.5kW gas output means the plate reaches working temperature quickly and recovers well between batches — an important consideration during a busy lunch or dinner service when throughput cannot afford to stall. The 20mm thick mild steel plate distributes heat evenly across its full width, reducing hot spots and giving operators consistent results across multiple portions cooking simultaneously. Mild steel is the preferred plate material in most professional griddle applications: it retains heat well, develops a seasoned surface over time, and handles the sustained high-temperature demands of a working kitchen.
From an operational standpoint, this griddle offers several practical advantages:
- Push-button ignition for quick, straightforward start-up at the beginning of service
- Full stainless steel outer construction, supporting durability and ease of cleaning between services
- High-capacity grease collection drawer, reducing the frequency of interruptions during a long service
- Countertop format keeps installation straightforward and preserves flexibility in kitchen layout
- Part of the Fagor 900 Series range, meaning it aligns with compatible suites and stands if a modular setup is planned
Being a countertop unit, the FT-G910 L requires a stable, heat-resistant surface rated to take its weight — at 128kg this is not a lightweight piece of equipment, and the worktop or stand needs to be assessed accordingly. It runs on natural gas and will require connection by a Gas Safe registered engineer prior to use. Adequate ventilation and extraction above the griddle position is essential. At 800mm wide, it occupies meaningful counter space, so kitchen planners should confirm clearances before ordering.
This griddle is well suited to cafés, hotels, school canteens, pub kitchens, and contract catering operations running structured service periods with consistent griddle demand. It is a practical choice where a smooth plate is preferred over a ribbed surface and where gas is the preferred energy source. Kitchens with lower griddle volumes may find a narrower model sufficient, while very high-volume sites running continuous all-day service might benefit from a larger or dual-zone unit.
If you are unsure whether the 800mm plate width is the right fit for your service pattern, or if you have questions about pairing it with other 900 Series equipment, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
£464.00(£556.80 inc VAT)
The Buffalo 600 Series Electric Griddle is a compact, smooth-plate griddle designed for consistent, controlled cooking across breakfast, brunch, and all-day service menus. It operates from a standard electrical supply and sits comfortably on a countertop, making it a practical addition to kitchens where space is at a premium but cooking versatility is still required.
The 10mm mild steel plate retains and distributes heat evenly across the cooking surface, which matters in practice — cold spots cause inconsistent results and slow service. The 3kW element brings the plate up to temperature quickly and supports reasonable recovery between batches, which is adequate for moderate-volume services. It is worth noting that at 400mm wide, this is a single-operator griddle suited to kitchens handling steady rather than high-intensity throughput. Sites running very busy griddle service across multiple covers simultaneously may find a wider unit more appropriate.
From an operational standpoint, the griddle offers several practical advantages:
- Even heat distribution across the mild steel plate for consistent results
- Built-in fat collection drawer makes mid-service cleaning straightforward
- Side and rear splash guards help keep adjacent surfaces cleaner during service
- Fully welded stainless steel construction withstands daily commercial use
- Compact footprint suits counter space where larger equipment would not fit
Installation is straightforward — the unit requires only a suitable electrical connection and adequate ventilation above the cooking area, as with any open cooking surface. It does not require a fixed water supply or gas connection. Ensure the countertop surface is stable and rated for the unit's weight before positioning.
This griddle is well suited to cafés, small hotels, pub kitchens, and catering operations running moderate breakfast or light lunch services. For higher-volume sites or operations where the griddle is a primary cooking station under sustained pressure, a heavier-duty or wider model would be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether the 400mm plate suits your service volumes or kitchen layout, we are happy to talk it through before you commit.
£12,555.00(£15,066.00 inc VAT)
The Vizu VICG450OCL is a freestanding smooth plate clam griddle designed for commercial kitchen environments where consistent, repeatable cooking results are a daily requirement. The unit uses upper and lower flat plates that close together to cook food from both sides simultaneously, with the smooth plate surfaces maximising contact between the food and the heat source for even, controlled results across the cooking area.
In a busy service environment, the clam format significantly reduces cook times compared to a conventional open griddle, which helps maintain throughput during peak periods. The flat plate arrangement delivers consistent results across batches, making it practical for kitchens that need to produce volume without sacrificing quality or consistency between covers. Recovery between consecutive loads is reliable, and the design keeps cooking output steady even under sustained demand.
The Fastron one-touch controller is a practical feature in an operational context. Programmes can be stored and recalled, removing the need for staff to adjust temperature and timing manually with each use. The top plate can be set to lift automatically at the end of a cook cycle, which reduces the risk of overcooking and means the unit can be supervised rather than watched constantly. Key operational advantages include:
- Programmable cook cycles reduce reliance on individual staff judgement
- Automatic plate lift helps protect food quality during busy service
- Dual-sided cooking reduces overall cook times and improves throughput
- Stainless steel construction is straightforward to clean and resists daily wear
- Consistent results across batches support reliable service output
At 105kg, the unit is substantial and will need to be positioned thoughtfully within the kitchen layout. It is freestanding, so it does not require built-in installation, but adequate worktop or floor space should be confirmed before ordering. At 9kW it draws a meaningful electrical load, and your electrical supply and distribution board should be assessed to confirm suitability before installation. Ventilation requirements should also be considered in line with your extraction setup.
This griddle is well suited to casual dining operations, burger restaurants, hotel kitchens, and contract catering environments where griddled items form a significant part of the menu. The programmable controls make it accessible to mixed-ability kitchen teams without compromising on output quality. For very high-volume operations running continuous service, it is worth discussing whether a heavier-duty or larger-footprint model would better match your throughput requirements.
If you have questions about whether this unit is the right fit for your kitchen — in terms of output, electrical supply, or workflow — our team is happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.
£19,258.00(£23,109.60 inc VAT)
The Garland XPE24 is a freestanding electric clamshell grill built for high-throughput cooking environments. It uses upper and lower grill plates that cook both sides of a product simultaneously, significantly reducing cook times compared with conventional single-sided grilling. The upper plate is power-driven, lifting and lowering automatically rather than relying on the operator to manage plate position manually.
In a busy service environment — think high-volume burger operations, QSR kitchens, or stadium and event catering — the clamshell format makes a material difference to output consistency. Because both surfaces apply heat at the same time, cooking results are more uniform across each batch, which reduces the likelihood of inconsistent product reaching the pass. The automated cycle controlled via the built-in digital touchscreen removes a significant source of human error: once a programme is set, the grill manages the process, freeing the operator to focus on other tasks during service.
Practical advantages in day-to-day use include:
- Automated plate lift eliminates manual timing and reduces operator dependency
- Programmable cook cycles via touchscreen, with menu updates loadable via USB
- Lower griddle plate in thick carbon steel, machine ground and polished for even heat distribution and durability
- Replaceable quick-release Teflon sheets on the upper plate reduce cleaning time and food adhesion
- Consistent product output across peak service periods with minimal intervention
The XPE24 is a three-phase electric unit. Installation will require a suitable three-phase supply and a qualified electrician to commission it correctly. At 290kg, placement needs to be planned carefully — floor loading and access routes should be confirmed before delivery. The 700mm width footprint is relatively compact for the output it delivers, but bench or counter positioning must be assessed for heat clearance around the unit.
This grill is well suited to operations running consistent, high-volume throughput of flat-cooked proteins — burgers, chicken fillets, panini, and similar products. It is most at home in a dedicated fast-food or QSR-style kitchen rather than an à la carte environment where varied cooking methods are required. For sites with lower throughput requirements, a single-plate or smaller clamshell unit may be a more proportionate choice. For significantly larger operations running multiple stations, it is worth discussing whether a higher-capacity configuration would better match demand.
If you are unsure whether the XPE24 is the right fit for your service volumes or kitchen setup, the team is happy to work through the detail with you before you commit.
£192.00(£230.40 inc VAT)
The Buffalo cast iron countertop griddle is a compact, electrically heated cooking surface designed for commercial kitchens that need a reliable, everyday workhorse for high-turnover cooking. It operates on a 2.8kW element and uses a smooth cast iron plate, making it suitable for a broad range of ingredients including eggs, bacon, burgers, fish, and vegetables.
Cast iron retains and distributes heat steadily across the cooking surface, which is particularly useful during sustained service when a consistent plate temperature matters more than a rapid initial heat-up. The front-mounted dial thermostat allows straightforward temperature adjustment without interrupting service, and the plate's thermal mass means it recovers reasonably well between successive loads — important when orders are coming in continuously during a busy breakfast or lunch shift.
From a practical standpoint, the griddle keeps day-to-day operation straightforward:
- Smooth cast iron surface suits a wide range of proteins and vegetables
- Front-mounted thermostat allows quick temperature adjustment mid-service
- Stainless steel base is durable and easy to wipe down
- Removable drip tray simplifies end-of-service cleaning
- Countertop format fits into tight kitchen layouts without structural changes
Installation is straightforward — the unit is plug-in electric, so no gas supply or specialist fitting is required. It will need adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation and safe operation, and should be positioned on a stable, heat-resistant surface. As with any countertop griddle, it is worth confirming your existing socket circuit can support the 2.8kW load before use.
This griddle is well suited to smaller cafés, pub kitchens, hotel breakfast operations, and snack bars where a full-size floor-standing griddle would be disproportionate. It works best as a dedicated station for a specific cooking task rather than the sole cooking surface for a high-volume main kitchen. For sites running larger volumes or longer continuous services, a heavier-duty model with a larger cooking area and higher power output may be worth considering.
If you're unsure whether this unit matches your service volumes or kitchen setup, we're happy to talk it through with you.
£124.00(£148.80 inc VAT)
The Buffalo cast iron countertop griddle is a compact electric cooking unit designed for light commercial use. It uses a flat, smooth cast iron cooking surface heated by a 1.8kW element, with thermostat control allowing the operator to dial in and hold a consistent cooking temperature. A thermal cut-out device provides an added layer of safety under sustained operation.
In a working kitchen, this unit is well suited to operations where griddle cooking forms a secondary or intermittent part of service rather than a continuous, high-throughput demand. It handles bacon, eggs, pancakes, halloumi, and similar items effectively during moderate service periods. Recovery after a batch cook is reasonable for the output class, though operators running back-to-back covers at volume may find the 1.8kW element reaches its limits during sustained peak demand.
Practical day-to-day advantages include:
- Cast iron surface retains heat evenly, reducing cold spots across the cooking zone
- Smooth surface is straightforward to scrape down and clean between service periods
- Stainless steel body wipes down cleanly and holds up well to kitchen conditions
- Compact countertop footprint requires minimal dedicated space
- On/off switch and thermostat give the operator direct, simple temperature management
Installation is straightforward — the unit is plug-in electric with no gas or water connection required. It will need to be positioned on a stable, heat-resistant surface with adequate clearance at the rear and sides. Check that your countertop power supply can support the 1.8kW draw alongside other equipment running from the same circuit.
This griddle is a practical choice for cafés, small kitchens, pop-up operations, or as a supplementary unit in a larger kitchen where occasional griddle output is needed without committing counter space to a full-size appliance. For kitchens running griddle cooking as a core part of a busy service, a heavier-duty unit with a higher power rating would be worth considering.
If you're weighing this against other options for your setup, we're happy to help you work through what suits your service best.
£3,703.00(£4,443.60 inc VAT)
The Mirror M650E is a heavy duty electric griddle built around an 18mm thick chromed cooking plate. Chromed plates differ from plain steel in that they offer a harder, smoother cooking surface that heats evenly and releases food cleanly — making them a common choice wherever presentation matters alongside throughput. The cooking surface itself is a practical size for a 650mm-wide unit, and the six heating elements work across the plate to maintain consistent temperatures rather than concentrating heat in zones.
In a busy service environment, recovery time after a cold batch is one of the more telling measures of a griddle's real-world value. The element configuration here supports prompt recovery, which helps operators maintain consistent cooking times during back-to-back service. The two independent thermostats mean the plate can be divided into separate temperature zones — useful when cooking different products simultaneously, or when one zone is idle during quieter periods to save energy.
From a practical standpoint, the M650E is designed to be straightforward to operate and keep clean:
- Side and rear splash guards contain grease splatter during service
- Removable grease drawer simplifies end-of-service cleaning
- 304 stainless steel body is robust and easy to wipe down
- Height-adjustable legs allow stable positioning on uneven surfaces
- Independent zone control supports flexible cooking during varied service periods
Installation is straightforward for a hardwired electric griddle of this class, though an 8kW load will require a suitable single-phase or three-phase supply depending on your site configuration — this is worth confirming with your electrician before installation. The unit sits on a countertop and the adjustable legs give some tolerance on worktop surfaces that aren't perfectly level.
The M650E is well suited to fast food operations, mobile catering units, and front-of-house cooking stations where a reliable chromed plate griddle is needed without a large footprint. It is also a practical choice for smaller restaurants and cafés handling moderate to heavy griddle volumes. For sites running continuous high-volume service across a full kitchen shift, a larger or more powerful unit may be worth considering.
If you're weighing this up against other options for your setup, our team are happy to talk through what would work best for your service style and kitchen configuration.
£611.00(£733.20 inc VAT)
The Buffalo 600 Series dual zone electric griddle is a 600mm countertop cooking unit designed for continuous use across breakfast, lunch and dinner service. It runs on a single-phase supply, making it accessible for kitchens that cannot accommodate three-phase power, and connects via a hardwired installation. The smooth mild steel cooking surface is divided into two independently controlled zones, allowing the operator to run different temperatures across each side simultaneously.
In a working kitchen environment, the griddle handles the kind of sustained throughput you'd expect from a busy café or small restaurant. The 10mm mild steel plates hold heat well under load, recovering quickly between batches rather than losing temperature when cold product hits the surface. Even heat distribution across the plate helps avoid the hot spots that lead to inconsistent results during a busy service.
The dual zone setup offers practical flexibility during quieter periods — one side can be powered down entirely while the other remains active, which helps reduce running costs without switching off the unit altogether. Day-to-day cleaning is straightforward: the fully welded plate construction avoids recessed joins where grease can accumulate, and a removable fat collection drawer beneath the surface simplifies the end-of-service clean-down. Side and rear splash guards keep the surrounding cook line reasonably contained.
- Independent zone control allows simultaneous cooking at different temperatures
- Powering down one zone during quiet periods reduces energy consumption
- Smooth welded plate surface is quick to clean and resists grease build-up
- Single-phase connection suits kitchens without three-phase infrastructure
- Part of the 600 Series line-up, designed to integrate with other units in the range
This griddle is well suited to small restaurants, cafés, hotel breakfast operations and pub kitchens running moderate service volumes. It is a practical choice where counter space is limited and versatility across meal periods matters. For higher-volume operations with continuous back-to-back service demands, a larger or more powerful unit would be worth considering.
If you're unsure whether this griddle is the right fit for your kitchen layout or service volume, our team is happy to talk it through with you.
£2,298.00(£2,757.60 inc VAT)
The Mirror Z1 is a single zone, heavy duty gas griddle built around a thick, fully chromed steel plate. Chromed plate griddles are a common choice in commercial kitchens where surface temperature consistency and ease of cleaning are priorities — the chrome finish distributes heat evenly across the cooking surface and releases food cleanly, with less residue than a plain steel plate. The Z1 is designed for counter or range top installation and occupies a relatively compact footprint, making it practical where bench space is at a premium.
In service, the griddle performs reliably across a broad range of applications — from breakfast items such as eggs, bacon and pancakes through to searing burgers, pressing panini or cooking fish. The single zone format means the entire plate operates at one temperature at a time, which suits kitchens running a focused menu or a single service style rather than those needing simultaneous high and low temperature zones. Recovery after loading is reasonably prompt for a unit of this class, and the piezo ignition means a reliable start each service without the need for a separate lighter.
From an operational standpoint, the chromed plate offers a few practical advantages worth noting:
- The smooth chrome surface is straightforward to scrape down and clean between services
- Splash guards to the sides and rear help protect adjacent workstations and reduce cleaning time
- The removable grease tray simplifies daily maintenance and keeps drainage clear
- Heavy duty stainless steel construction holds up well under continuous use
As a gas appliance, the Z1 requires connection to a suitable gas supply by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and adequate ventilation or extraction above the cooking position. It is worth confirming your existing supply pressure and pipework capacity before installation, particularly where multiple gas appliances are already in use on the same run. The unit is designed for bench-top use and will need a stable, heat-resistant surface.
The Z1 is well suited to small to medium catering operations — cafés, hotel breakfast stations, small restaurants, or contract catering kitchens running moderate throughput. The single zone configuration and 350mm plate width make it most practical where one temperature setting covers the majority of the menu requirement. For kitchens that need to cook across different temperature zones simultaneously, or where significantly higher throughput is required, a wider or multi-zone model would be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether the Z1 is the right fit for your kitchen layout or service volume, the team at Advantage Catering Equipment is happy to talk it through before you commit.
£655.00(£786.00 inc VAT)
The Buffalo 900mm natural gas griddle is a counter-top flat-top cooking unit designed for sustained, high-output service in commercial kitchens. Three independent burners distribute heat across the full width of the cooking surface, with each zone controlled separately so chefs can run different temperature areas simultaneously — useful for kitchens that need to sear, sauté and hold without moving food between pieces of equipment.
The polished steel cooking plate is substantial in thickness, which matters in a busy service environment. A thicker plate retains and recovers heat more reliably after cold product is placed down, reducing temperature drop and maintaining consistent cooking results across a full lunch or dinner service. The three-burner configuration across 900mm of cooking width gives a meaningful amount of usable surface for multi-item cooking or parallel menu execution.
From an operational standpoint, the griddle is straightforward to work with during service and to clean down afterwards:
- Independent burner zones allow simultaneous cooking at different temperatures
- Battery-operated impulse ignition for reliable lighting without external tools
- Flame failure protection adds a layer of safety during busy shifts
- Removable front grease tray speeds end-of-service clean-down
- Stainless steel splash guard helps contain splatter around the cooking zone
Installation requires a natural gas supply and appropriate ventilation overhead — a canopy or extraction system rated for the burner output is standard practice. The unit sits on adjustable legs for counter-top use, so a level, stable surface with adequate load-bearing capacity is needed. This is a natural gas model; kitchens with LPG supplies or electric-only infrastructure will need to consider alternatives.
The 900mm width suits mid-sized to busier kitchens — gastropubs, casual dining restaurants, hotel operations, and similar sites where flat-top cooking forms a regular part of the menu. Smaller operations with lighter throughput may find the capacity exceeds their need, while very high-volume sites running continuous service across multiple covers may want to consider a heavier-duty or wider unit.
If you're unsure whether this griddle matches your service volume or you want to talk through your gas supply and extraction setup before ordering, the team is happy to help you work through it.

The Mirror Z2 is a heavy duty gas griddle fitted with a fully chromed cooking plate and divided into two independent temperature zones. The chromed surface is well suited to high-volume cooking where consistent, even heat distribution matters — breakfast service, burger operations, and fast-paced grill menus all place significant demand on a griddle, and the Z2 is built to handle that load across a sustained service period.
The two-zone configuration is the key operational distinction on this model. Being able to hold different temperature profiles across the plate at the same time allows a kitchen to run, for example, proteins on one side and bread or vegetables on the other without compromising either. During quieter periods, one zone can be turned down or off entirely, which helps manage gas consumption without shutting the whole unit down. Piezo ignition means the unit lights cleanly and reliably without the need for a match or separate lighter.
In practical terms, the chromed plate offers some real advantages over plain steel in a commercial environment:
- Chromed surface reduces sticking and speeds up cleaning between service covers
- Retains surface temperature well under continuous loading
- Independent zones allow simultaneous cooking at different heat levels
- Removable grease tray simplifies end-of-service cleaning
- Side and rear splash guards protect adjacent workstations
For installation, this is a gas-fired unit and will require connection to a suitable gas supply by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Adequate ventilation above the griddle — typically via a canopy extraction system — is a requirement in a commercial setting and should be confirmed before installation. The unit is freestanding on a countertop, so bench strength and available worktop depth should be checked as part of the setup process.
The Z2 is a practical choice for operations running a breakfast menu, a dedicated grill section, or any service where a split cooking surface adds workflow flexibility. If your volume is higher or your menu requires a wider cooking area, it is worth considering a larger model before committing. Equally, if you only need a single temperature zone, a simpler single-zone unit may be more appropriate.
If you are unsure whether this griddle suits your kitchen layout, gas supply, or service volume, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you order.

The Mirror M1000E is a heavy duty electric griddle built around an 18mm thick smooth chrome cooking plate. Chrome plate griddles are commonly used where consistent, even surface heat is a priority — the plate holds temperature well and produces a clean, controlled cook across the full surface area, making it a practical choice for high-throughput operations running continuous service.
In a busy kitchen environment, heat recovery is one of the most important performance factors on any griddle. The M1000E's thick chrome plate helps maintain surface temperature when cold product is loaded, which matters during peak periods when items are going on and off the plate in quick succession. Nine heating elements spread across the cooking surface support even heat distribution, reducing the likelihood of hot spots or uneven results under pressure.
Three independent thermostats allow the plate to be divided into separate temperature zones, which adds a useful degree of flexibility during service. Operators can run different temperature profiles across the plate simultaneously — useful where a mixed menu requires different cooking conditions at the same time. Practical day-to-day features include:
- Integrated splash guards to contain grease and reduce surrounding surface contamination
- Removable grease drawer for straightforward end-of-service cleaning
- Height-adjustable legs for stable positioning on varied surfaces
- 304 stainless steel body construction for durability and ease of maintenance
The M1000E requires a hardwired three-phase electrical supply at 12kW and should be positioned with adequate clearance for ventilation and grease extraction. It is not suitable for connection to a standard single-phase domestic-style socket. Before installation, it is worth confirming that your existing electrical infrastructure can support the load, particularly if other high-draw equipment is running on the same circuit.
This griddle is well suited to fast food operations, mobile catering trailers, and front-of-house live cooking stations where a large, reliable cooking surface is needed throughout the day. For lower-volume sites, a smaller footprint model may be a more practical fit; for very high-output operations running multiple sittings, it is worth considering whether a wider or dual-plate configuration would better match your throughput requirements.
If you are unsure whether the M1000E is the right match for your kitchen setup or service volume, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
£7,661.00(£9,193.20 inc VAT)
The Mirror M1300E is a large-format electric griddle built around an 18mm thick, mirror-finish chrome cooking surface. Chrome plate is a well-established choice in commercial kitchens where consistent heat distribution and ease of cleaning are priorities. Unlike standard steel plates, the mirror-chrome finish is less porous, which means fats and residues sit on the surface rather than bonding to it — a meaningful difference at the end of a busy service.
At 20kW across twelve heating elements, the M1300E is engineered to maintain cooking temperature under continuous load. Four independent thermostats allow the plate to be divided into separate temperature zones, which is practically useful when running a varied menu — searing proteins on one side while holding or finishing items at a lower temperature on the other. Recovery after loading the plate is strong, which matters in fast-paced service where the griddle rarely gets a rest.
Day-to-day operation is straightforward. The features that make the most difference in practice include:
- Four independent temperature zones across the full cooking surface
- Removable grease drawer for clean, quick end-of-service cleardown
- Integrated side and rear splash guards to contain splatter
- Height-adjustable legs to level the unit on uneven floors
- 304 stainless steel body construction throughout
Installation requires a suitable three-phase electrical supply to handle the 20kW load — this is not a unit that will run from a standard single-phase socket, and electrical infrastructure should be confirmed before ordering. The footprint is substantial, so bench space and clearance around the unit for ventilation and safe working should be assessed as part of any installation plan.
The M1300E is well suited to fast food operations, high-throughput cafés, pub kitchens, and mobile or event catering set-ups where a large, reliable cooking surface is the centrepiece of the kitchen. For smaller operations or lower-volume sites, a more compact griddle in the range may be a better fit. Conversely, sites running very high covers continuously may want to consider whether a double-deck or modular configuration would give them more flexibility.
If you are unsure whether this griddle matches your service volume or your electrical supply, we are happy to work through the detail with you before you commit.
£6,363.00(£7,635.60 inc VAT)
The Mirror Z4 is a 1200mm wide, four-zone heavy duty gas griddle fitted with a fully chromed steel cooking plate. The chrome surface distinguishes it from plain steel griddles — it retains heat evenly across the plate, produces a clean finish on delicate proteins and breakfast items, and is considerably easier to maintain hygienically during and after service. Four independently controlled burner zones across the 1200mm width allow different areas of the plate to be held at different temperatures simultaneously, which matters in a busy kitchen where a cook may be searing red meat on one end and holding eggs or fish at a lower temperature on the other.
In practice, this griddle performs well in sustained high-volume service. The chromed plate reaches working temperature efficiently and holds it reliably under continuous loading — a meaningful consideration during a busy breakfast or all-day brunch service where the plate rarely has a chance to recover. The four-zone layout also reduces wasted energy during quieter periods, since operators can hold back zones that are not in active use rather than running the full plate throughout.
Key practical advantages for kitchen operators include:
- Independent zone control reduces energy waste during partial-load service
- Chromed plate provides an even, non-reactive cooking surface suited to high-throughput griddling
- Removable grease tray simplifies end-of-service cleaning considerably
- Side and rear splash guards help protect adjacent workstations and reduce cleaning spread
- Piezo ignition allows reliable, consistent starts without external ignition tools
Installation requires a natural gas or LPG supply rated to match the burner output, a stable level surface capable of supporting the unit's weight, and sufficient working clearance to the rear and sides for ventilation and safe operation. As with any gas appliance in a commercial kitchen, installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and the unit will need to be included in the kitchen's ventilation assessment. The 1200mm footprint is well suited to a mid-to-large kitchen range suite but is worth measuring carefully into a tighter or pre-fitted space before ordering.
This griddle is well suited to high-volume operations where a large, evenly performing chromed surface is a daily requirement — restaurants running full breakfast service, hotel kitchens, and busy café kitchens are typical applications. For sites with lower throughput or tighter space constraints, a narrower two-zone model may be a more proportionate fit. For very high-volume operations running extended service across multiple sittings, it is worth discussing whether a larger or higher-output configuration would be more appropriate.
If you are unsure whether the Z4 is the right specification for your kitchen layout or service volume, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
£403.00(£483.60 inc VAT)
The Buffalo 600mm natural gas griddle is a counter-top flat plate griddle designed for continuous commercial use. It operates on natural gas via two independently controlled burners, producing a combined output of 15kW across a polished steel cooking surface. The plate thickness supports even heat retention, and the dual-zone configuration allows different cooking tasks to run simultaneously without interference between them.
In a busy kitchen environment, the ability to separate heat zones is a genuine operational advantage. Chefs can hold cooked items on one side whilst searing on the other, which helps maintain throughput during peak service without repeatedly adjusting a single temperature across the whole plate. The battery-operated impulse ignition and flame failure protection support consistent, safe lighting at the start of every shift — useful in environments where griddles are fired up repeatedly throughout the day.
From a practical standpoint, the griddle is built to hold up under the demands of regular service. Key operational features include:
- Independently controlled dual burners for simultaneous multi-temperature cooking
- Polished heavy-duty steel plate for even heat distribution and durability
- Stainless steel splash guard to contain splatter and protect the surrounding work area
- Removable front grease collection tray to speed up end-of-service clean-down
- Adjustable legs for stable, level installation on varied counter surfaces
As a natural gas appliance, this griddle requires a hard-piped gas connection by a Gas Safe registered engineer before use. It is a counter-top unit, so sufficient worktop depth and a suitable non-combustible surface are required. Depending on the volume of fat and smoke generated during service, local ventilation requirements should be considered — a canopy extract above the cooking line is standard practice in most commercial kitchens. The 600mm footprint suits smaller counters and is a common choice where space is limited but griddle capacity is still needed.
This griddle is well suited to cafés, breakfast-focused operations, burger kitchens, and smaller restaurant kitchens where flat plate cooking is a regular part of service. It handles moderate-to-high daily throughput reliably, though sites running very high-volume griddle cooking throughout extended service periods may find a heavier-duty or wider unit more appropriate for their needs.
If you are unsure whether this model fits the demands of your specific kitchen or service style, the team is happy to talk through your requirements before you commit.
£4,745.00(£5,694.00 inc VAT)
The Mirror Z3 is a three zone, heavy duty gas griddle fitted with an 18mm thick fully chromed steel plate across a 900mm cooking surface. The chrome finish distinguishes it from standard mild steel griddles — it distributes heat more evenly across the plate, reduces surface sticking, and makes it notably easier to keep clean during and after service. Each zone is independently controlled, allowing the griddle to run at different temperatures simultaneously, which is a practical advantage when cooking a mixed menu of proteins, eggs, and delicate items alongside one another.
In a busy kitchen environment, the Z3 performs reliably across extended service periods. The three independent burners provide good thermal coverage across the full width of the plate, and the ability to zone temperatures means operators are not wasting energy blasting unused sections at full heat. Recovery after loading cold product is steady, and the plate thickness helps maintain consistent surface temperature under continuous use rather than spiking and dropping between batches.
From an operational standpoint, the chromed plate brings several day-to-day advantages:
- Independent zone control reduces energy use during quieter covers or partial-menu service
- Chrome surface minimises residue adhesion, cutting cleaning time between and after service
- Piezo ignition provides reliable, tool-free starting across all burners
- Removable grease tray and splash guards support straightforward daily cleaning routines
- Heavy duty stainless steel construction withstands the physical demands of a professional kitchen environment
The Z3 is a freestanding gas appliance and will require a suitable gas supply and appropriate connection by a Gas Safe registered engineer before use. Adequate ventilation and extraction above the cooking position is essential. At 900mm wide, it occupies a substantial section of a cooking suite, so confirming available space, service positions, and extraction capacity before ordering is worth doing. The unit is built for commercial use and is not suitable for domestic installation.
This griddle is well suited to restaurants, hotel kitchens, pub catering operations, and contract catering sites running regular full-service periods with a varied menu. The three zone configuration is particularly useful where breakfast service runs alongside à la carte, or where grill throughput needs to be managed across different product types at once. For smaller kitchens with lighter throughput, a single or dual zone unit may be a more proportionate fit; for very high volume operations, it is worth considering whether additional cooking width would better serve the pace of service.
If you have questions about whether the Z3 is the right specification for your kitchen layout or service volume, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
£534.00(£640.80 inc VAT)
The Buffalo 790mm dual zone chrome plated griddle is an electric countertop griddle designed for busy commercial kitchens where menu variety and service pace demand flexible cooking. The cooking surface is divided into two independently controlled zones, each with its own thermostat, allowing the operator to run different temperature profiles simultaneously — useful when a single service requires both gentle warming and high-heat searing at the same time.
In practice, the 15mm thick chrome plate is the detail that makes the most difference during a busy service. Thicker plate retains heat more effectively when cold product is loaded, which helps maintain consistent surface temperatures and reduces the recovery time between batches. For kitchens turning over high volumes of eggs, pancakes, burgers, or fish, that consistency matters — uneven heat across a thinner surface is one of the more common causes of inconsistent cook results and slower throughput. The wide operating temperature range gives operators the flexibility to use the griddle across a broad range of menu items without moving product between appliances.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:
- Two independently controlled zones allow simultaneous cooking at different temperatures
- Thick chrome plate supports strong heat retention and faster recovery under load
- Wide temperature range covers delicate warming through to high-heat searing
- Removable oil collection drawer simplifies cleaning between and after service
- Built-in overheat protection adds a safety baseline during sustained use
Installation is straightforward for a countertop electric unit — the griddle requires a suitable electrical supply and adequate worktop space to accommodate the footprint and allow safe access around the unit. As with any griddle, ventilation above the cooking position should be considered, particularly in enclosed kitchen environments. This model is well suited to small to medium operations — cafés, pub kitchens, hotel breakfast operations, and similar — where service volume justifies a dedicated griddle station but does not require a full floor-standing unit. For higher-volume sites or larger kitchen brigades, a heavier-duty or larger-format model may be worth considering.
If you're unsure whether this griddle suits your service volume or fits your existing countertop setup, our team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
£384.00(£460.80 inc VAT)
The Sammic SPG-601 is a gas-fired contact grill built for continuous use in commercial kitchens. It uses a 6mm thick steel cooking plate, which retains and distributes heat evenly across the surface — an important characteristic when grilling consistently through a busy lunch or dinner service. Twin independent burners with individual igniters give operators control over heat zones, which is useful when throughput varies or when running the grill at partial capacity during quieter periods.
In practice, a steel plate of this thickness performs reliably under sustained use. It holds temperature better than thinner alternatives and recovers more quickly after cold product is placed on the surface, which keeps service moving without the inconsistency that can come from slower recovery times. The titanium-coated stainless steel burners are a practical detail — they resist the corrosive effects of grease and moisture, which extends serviceable life in a kitchen environment.
From an operational standpoint, the SPG-601 offers several advantages worth noting:
- Independent burner control allows flexible use during varying service volumes
- Removable fat collection tray simplifies end-of-service cleaning
- Perimetral splashback helps contain grease and reduces surrounding surface contamination
- Stainless steel construction supports routine cleaning without surface deterioration
- Steel plate construction provides durable grilling surface resistant to warping under heat
Being a gas unit, it requires a suitable gas supply connection and should be installed in a properly ventilated kitchen or under an appropriate extraction canopy. Siting and connection should be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. It is worth confirming that your existing gas supply has sufficient capacity before installation, particularly if other gas appliances are running simultaneously.
The SPG-601 is well suited to cafés, sandwich bars, pub kitchens, and smaller restaurant operations where consistent grilled output is needed without the footprint of a larger range unit. For higher-volume operations or sites requiring a larger cooking surface, a heavier-duty model within the contact grill category may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this unit fits your service style or kitchen setup, we are happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.
£819.00(£982.80 inc VAT)
The Sammic SPC-601 is a gas-fired contact griddle built around a hard chromium-coated steel cooking plate. Hard chromium is a well-established surface choice in commercial grilling — it offers greater resistance to wear and corrosion than bare steel, holds heat evenly across the cooking surface, and is considerably easier to clean than standard cast iron or plain steel alternatives. The result is a griddle plate that stays in reliable working condition under the kind of sustained daily use a busy kitchen demands.
With two independently controlled burners, operators can run different temperature zones across the plate simultaneously — useful during varied service periods when you might be grilling proteins on one side while finishing lighter items on the other. The titanium-coated stainless steel burners are a practical detail: titanium coating adds resistance to the heat cycling and grease exposure that shortens burner life in heavy-use environments. Each burner has its own igniter, so a single ignition issue does not take the whole unit out of service.
From an operational standpoint, the SPC-601 offers several practical advantages:
- Hard chromium surface reduces food adhesion and speeds up between-service cleaning
- Independent burner zones allow flexible temperature management during service
- Removable fat collection tray simplifies daily cleaning and reduces grease build-up risk
- Perimeter stainless steel splashback protects surrounding surfaces and supports hygiene
- Safety valves on each tap provide a meaningful safeguard in gas-powered equipment
As a gas unit, the SPC-601 requires a suitable gas supply connection and should be installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer in line with current UK regulations. Adequate ventilation above the cooking position is essential — a canopy extract system positioned correctly over the unit is the standard approach. The splashback provides some protection to adjacent surfaces, but clearance distances to walls and other equipment should be confirmed at the planning stage.
This griddle is well suited to cafés, small to mid-sized restaurants, burger concepts, and sandwich bars where grilling forms a regular part of service. It handles consistent throughput across a standard service period without the complexity or footprint of larger modular griddle ranges. For kitchens running very high volumes continuously — particularly where the griddle is the primary cooking workhorse — a heavier-duty or larger-surface model may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether the SPC-601 matches your service volume or want to talk through gas installation requirements, our team is happy to help you work through it before you order.
£508.00(£609.60 inc VAT)
The Sammic SPG-801 is a gas-fired contact griddle built for continuous use in commercial kitchens. It uses a solid steel cooking plate heated by three independently controlled burners, giving operators the flexibility to work across the full plate surface during peak service or isolate zones during quieter periods to manage gas consumption. The perimetral splashback keeps grease contained, and the fat collection tray removes easily for cleaning between service periods.
In practice, this type of flat-plate gas griddle suits kitchens that need consistent, even heat across a broad cooking surface — breakfasts, burgers, bacon, fish fillets, and similar high-throughput items that benefit from direct contact cooking. The independent igniters on each burner mean the plate can be brought up in sections, which is useful in operations where service demand varies across the day. The titanium-coated stainless steel burners are built to withstand the thermal cycling and grease exposure that comes with regular commercial use.
Key practical advantages include:
- Three independently controlled burners allow zone management during quieter service periods
- Solid steel plate provides even heat distribution across the cooking surface
- Titanium-coated burners offer durability under the demanding conditions of daily commercial use
- Removable fat tray simplifies cleaning and helps maintain hygiene standards
- Stainless steel construction throughout is practical for commercial kitchen environments
This griddle is suited to mid-sized operations — cafés, pubs, hotel kitchens, and similar sites with moderate to high breakfast or grill service volumes. For very high-volume operations running continuous service across multiple shifts, it is worth considering whether a heavier-duty or larger-format model would better match demand before committing to this size.
If you are unsure whether this griddle is the right fit for your kitchen layout, gas supply, or service volume, the team is happy to talk through the options with you.
£1,025.00(£1,230.00 inc VAT)
The Sammic SPC-801 is a heavy-duty gas griddle built around a hard chromium-coated steel cooking plate. The hard chrome surface is harder and more resistant to wear than standard mild steel, and it distributes heat more evenly, which matters during sustained service when you need consistent results across the full cooking area. The plate sits on a stainless steel body with a perimeter splashback, giving the unit a practical, cleanable profile that holds up in a working kitchen environment.
Three independent gas burners run beneath the plate, each with its own igniter and safety valve. Independent control means different zones of the plate can be held at different temperatures simultaneously — useful when you are cooking a mix of proteins and vegetables at the same time, or managing varying order volumes across service. The titanium-coated stainless steel burners are designed to resist the thermal cycling that comes with daily commercial use.
From an operational standpoint, the SPC-801 offers several practical advantages for a grill station:
- Hard chrome surface resists scoring and maintains a consistent cooking finish over time
- Zone control across three burners supports mixed-menu cooking without temperature compromise
- Removable fat collection tray keeps cleaning straightforward at the end of service
- Safety valves on each burner tap provide reassurance in a busy kitchen setting
- Stainless steel construction throughout supports hygiene and durability
This is a gas-fired unit, so it requires a suitable gas supply connection and must be installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Adequate ventilation above the cooking line is essential. The plate dimensions make this a mid-to-large footprint piece of equipment — confirm you have the bench or range space available before ordering, and check the gas type (natural gas or LPG) matches your supply, as configuration requirements can vary.
The SPC-801 is well suited to pub kitchens, burger restaurants, hotel banqueting operations, and any site running a consistent grill menu at volume. It is a practical choice where durability and surface longevity matter more than a budget price point. For very high-throughput operations running continuous double-shift service, it is worth discussing whether a higher-output model would better suit the demand.
If you are unsure whether this griddle is the right specification for your kitchen setup or gas supply, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
£634.00(£760.80 inc VAT)
The Sammic SPG-1001 is a gas-fired contact griddle built for continuous use in commercial kitchen environments. It operates across a wide plate surface using three independently controlled burners, each with its own igniter, giving the operator precise zone management across the cooking area. The plate itself is constructed from solid steel, which absorbs and retains heat effectively — a characteristic that matters when cooking volumes increase and the plate is under consistent demand.
In a working kitchen, the independent burner zones mean you can run a portion of the plate at lower temperatures for items that need gentler heat while keeping the rest at full working temperature for high-throughput cooking. This kind of flexibility is useful during variable service periods where not every section of the griddle needs to be running at capacity. The titanium-coated stainless steel burners are designed to withstand the thermal cycling and moisture exposure typical in professional kitchen settings.
From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the SPG-1001 is straightforward to maintain. Key practical points include:
- Three independently ignited burners for flexible zone control
- Solid steel plate with good heat retention under continuous load
- Removable fat collection tray simplifying end-of-service cleaning
- Perimetral splashback reducing mess to surrounding surfaces
- Stainless steel construction throughout supporting hygiene and durability
As a gas appliance, it will require a suitable LPG or natural gas connection — confirm which gas type you need before ordering, as burner configurations differ. The unit will also need adequate clearance to surrounding surfaces and appropriate ventilation above the cooking position, typically via a canopy extraction system. Installation should be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
The SPG-1001 is well suited to cafés, bistros, hotel kitchens, and event catering operations where griddle cooking forms a regular part of service. It is a practical mid-range option for kitchens that need reliable output without the footprint or cost of a larger double-section unit. For very high-volume operations or sites running extended uninterrupted service, a higher-output model may be worth considering.
If you're unsure whether this griddle suits your service volumes or gas supply setup, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
