Product Description
The Roller Grill PSR 400E is a compact countertop electric griddle built around a solid steel cooking plate. It is designed for direct-heat cooking of burgers, bacon, sausages, eggs, and similar short-order items in a commercial setting. A single heating zone keeps operation straightforward, making it a sensible choice where simplicity and day-to-day reliability matter more than multi-zone temperature control.
The steel plate delivers consistent, even heat transfer across the cooking surface, which helps maintain steady throughput during continuous service. Incoloy heating elements distribute heat evenly across the plate, reducing the likelihood of cold spots that can slow cooking times or produce uneven results during a busy breakfast or lunch run. Welded steel walls to the rear and sides of the plate help contain food on the cooking surface and retain heat around the working area.
From an operational standpoint, the PSR 400E offers a number of practical advantages:
- Even heat distribution across the steel plate supports consistent cooking results throughout service
- Welded rear and side walls keep food contained and help hold cooking heat
- Front-opening grease drainage drawer simplifies daily cleaning and grease removal
- Single heating zone reduces complexity and keeps staff training straightforward
- Compact footprint suits countertop deployment where worktop space is limited
Being electric, the unit requires no gas supply or flue connection, which can simplify installation considerably where gas infrastructure is limited or absent. As a countertop unit, it should be positioned on a stable, heat-resistant surface with adequate clearance on all sides. Ventilation above the cooking area remains important even with electric equipment, particularly in enclosed or poorly ventilated kitchens.
The PSR 400E is well suited to cafés, snack bars, hotel breakfast services, and similar operations managing moderate volumes of grilled items. It is a single-zone unit, so kitchens running high throughput or requiring separate temperature zones across a wider plate may find a larger or multi-zone model a better fit for their needs.
If you are weighing this up against other options or want to talk through whether it suits your service volume and setup, the team is happy to help before you make a decision.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The PSR 400E is well suited to moderate-volume operations such as cafés, snack bars, and breakfast services. For sites turning over a high volume of grilled items continuously through a busy lunch period, a larger cooking surface or a multi-zone model is likely to be a more practical choice, as the single-zone plate on this unit has limits to how much it can handle back-to-back without affecting recovery and cooking consistency.
- The unit is electric, so there is no gas supply, gas safety checks, or flue connection required. It should be positioned on a stable, heat-resistant countertop surface with adequate clearance around the unit. Extraction or ventilation above the cooking area is still advisable, even with electric equipment, to manage steam and cooking vapours — this is worth factoring in before positioning the unit in a fixed location.
- Steel plate griddles are generally better suited to high-fat cooking such as burgers, bacon, and sausages, where the surface benefits from a degree of seasoning over time. Chrome plate surfaces tend to be preferred where delicate items or lower-fat foods are being cooked, as chrome is smoother, easier to clean, and less prone to staining. If you are unsure which plate type suits your menu, it is worth discussing your typical service items before ordering.
