IMC Pot Boy Mechanical Cookware Scrubber
£4,783.00(£5,739.60 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The IMC Pot Boy is a wall-mounted mechanical scrubbing unit designed to remove burnt-on food, grease, and stubborn residue from pots, pans, trays, and large cookware that cannot pass through a dishwasher. A rotating scrubber head does the heavy work, while a foot-operated switch keeps both hands free to safely handle and manoeuvre the item being cleaned.
Manual pot washing is one of the most physically demanding tasks in a commercial kitchen, particularly at the end of a long service when staff are already tired and the pile of heavy-gauge pans is at its deepest. The Pot Boy substantially reduces both the effort and time involved. Scrubber heads are available in nylon and Magicut formats to suit different cleaning requirements, and both are replaceable when worn — which keeps ongoing costs modest and removes the need to replace the whole unit.
From an operational standpoint, the unit offers several practical advantages:
- Foot-operated switch leaves both hands free for safe handling of heavy cookware
- Wall-mounted design keeps the pot wash area clear of worktop and floor space
- Replaceable scrubber heads help contain long-term running costs
- Compatible with a separately available trolley for in-situ cleaning of fixed equipment such as griddles, brat pans, and ranges
- Low power draw relative to the manual labour it replaces
Installation is straightforward. The unit mounts to a wall at the pot wash station — typically above or beside a sink — and requires a standard electrical connection. It takes up no floor or worktop space, which makes it practical even where the pot wash area is tight. If you intend to use it for cleaning fixed equipment in-situ, the compatible trolley should be factored into your layout from the start.
The Pot Boy suits kitchens that handle a consistent volume of heavy cookware each service. Pubs, restaurants, school kitchens, and contract catering operations tend to find it earns its place quickly. At very high-throughput sites where pot washing is a persistent bottleneck, it is worth considering whether a supplementary approach would serve you better.
If you would like to talk through how the Pot Boy fits your particular setup, the team is happy to help before you commit.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Pot Boy suitable for all types of heavy cookware?
It is well suited to pots, pans, gastronorm trays, roasting tins, and similar large items that cannot pass through a dishwasher. For very large or irregularly shaped items, the optional trolley attachment extends its usefulness to fixed equipment such as griddles and brat pans cleaned in-situ.
What are the installation requirements for the Pot Boy?
The unit mounts to a solid wall, typically at the pot wash station above or beside a sink, and requires a standard electrical connection. It occupies no worktop or floor space, making it practical in compact pot wash areas. If you plan to use the trolley accessory for in-situ equipment cleaning, allow for that in your layout from the outset.
How often do the scrubber heads need replacing, and what types are available?
Replacement frequency depends on usage volume and the type of residue being tackled, but the heads are designed for regular commercial use and are straightforward to swap out when worn. Nylon heads suit general-purpose scrubbing, while Magicut heads are better suited to heavier, more stubborn soiling — your choice of head should reflect the cookware and soiling types typical in your kitchen.
