Product Description
The Parry 1872 is an electric salamander grill designed for everyday commercial kitchen use. It operates via solid heating elements that deliver even heat across the grill surface, and it can be wall mounted or positioned on a counter, giving operators flexibility to work around their existing kitchen layout.
Salamander grills earn their place in a working kitchen through versatility — finishing dishes, glazing, toasting, browning, and holding food at temperature through a busy service. The solid elements on the 1872 reach working temperature quickly, which matters when service demand picks up without warning and there is no time to wait on equipment. Even heat distribution across the grill base means food finishes consistently without the need to keep repositioning it. The stainless steel construction is straightforward to clean and stands up well to daily kitchen use over time.
Practical advantages for operators include:
- Quick element heat-up reduces downtime at the start of service
- Even heat spread supports consistent finishing across the full grill surface
- Wall or counter mounting options to suit different kitchen configurations
- Stainless steel construction for durability and ease of daily cleaning
- Supplied with a grill pan and toasting rack as standard
Installation requires a suitable electrical supply and adequate clearance above and around the unit for safe heat dissipation — particularly worth planning carefully if wall mounting in a confined space. As with any overhead grill, good kitchen ventilation is recommended.
The 1872 is well suited to smaller commercial kitchens, cafés, pub kitchens, and independent restaurant operations where a dependable finishing grill is needed without the footprint of a larger overhead broiler. Sites running very high throughput or keeping a salamander in near-continuous use throughout service may find it worth discussing whether a higher-output model would be a better long-term fit.
If you would like to talk through whether this unit suits your kitchen setup, the team is always happy to help you think it through before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The 1872 is well suited to cafés, pub kitchens, and smaller restaurant operations where the salamander is used regularly but not under constant, unrelenting demand. Sites running very high covers or requiring a salamander in near-continuous use throughout a long service may be better served by a heavier-duty model with greater output — it is worth discussing your service volume with the team before deciding.
- The unit requires a suitable electrical supply and a wall structure capable of supporting its weight when mounted. You will also need to ensure adequate clearance above and around the unit for safe heat dissipation, and that the kitchen has sufficient ventilation — an extraction canopy above or nearby is the normal arrangement for any overhead grill.
- Salamanders are used across a wide range of finishing tasks — glazing sauces, grilling and browning, toasting bread and buns, melting cheese, and holding plated dishes at temperature during a busy service. The 1872 comes with a grill pan and toasting rack as standard, which covers the most common day-to-day applications from the outset.
