The Adande VCS2/CW is a two-drawer counter refrigeration unit that operates across a wide temperature range, allowing each drawer to be set independently anywhere between frozen and chilled. Unlike conventional undercounter fridges, the drawer format keeps contents accessible without requiring staff to bend into a deep cabinet or disturb adjacent prep work. The solid worktop provides a usable preparation surface directly above the stored product.

In a busy kitchen environment, point-of-use refrigeration makes a measurable difference to service speed and food safety. Having chilled or frozen stock held directly at the station — whether that is a meat prep section, a larder, a pastry bench, or a fry station — reduces the number of trips to a main cold room and keeps ingredients at the correct temperature right up to the moment they are needed. The VCS2/CW is well suited to high-turnover service periods precisely because the drawer system allows quick access without leaving a large cold volume exposed to warm air.

From an operational standpoint, the unit offers several practical advantages worth noting:

  • Independent drawer temperature control supports mixed storage — chilled and frozen simultaneously
  • Drawer configuration minimises cold air loss compared with a door-opening equivalent
  • Solid stainless steel worktop integrates into a prep counter without additional surface work
  • R600a refrigerant carries a very low global warming potential, supporting sustainability reporting
  • Energy rating of B reflects efficient running costs relative to capacity for a unit in continuous service

The unit runs on castors, which aids positioning and allows it to be moved for cleaning or repositioning during a kitchen reconfiguration. At 163kg it requires careful handling during installation, and the floor beneath should be checked for levelness and load capacity. As a refrigerated unit, it will need connection to a suitable power supply and adequate ventilation clearance around the condenser — your installation contractor should confirm site-specific requirements before the unit is sited permanently. The climate class 5 rating means it is designed to operate in ambient kitchen temperatures up to 40°C, which is relevant in hot kitchens or those without mechanical ventilation.

This unit is a strong fit for restaurants, hotel kitchens, and catering operations where prep sections benefit from dedicated chilled or frozen storage at the workstation. It is particularly practical in larder, deli, pastry, and high-volume fry station setups. For larger operations needing greater storage volume across multiple stations, higher-capacity multi-drawer configurations are available. For smaller sites or tighter budgets, a single-drawer alternative may be sufficient.

If you are weighing up whether this configuration suits your kitchen layout and service volumes, our team is happy to talk through the options before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

Can each drawer be set to a different temperature independently?

Yes — one of the key operational advantages of the Adande VCS2/CW is that each drawer can be set to a different temperature within the -22°C to 15°C range. This means you can run one drawer as a chiller and the other as a freezer simultaneously, which is particularly useful at combination stations such as a fry section where you need both frozen product and chilled garnishes to hand.

What are the installation requirements for this unit?

The VCS2/CW requires a suitable mains power connection and adequate ventilation clearance around the condenser — your installer should confirm exact requirements for your specific site. The unit weighs 163kg, so floor load capacity and levelness should be checked before final positioning. The castors allow for repositioning once installed, but initial placement should be planned carefully, particularly in tightly fitted kitchen runs.

Is this unit suitable for a high-temperature kitchen environment?

The VCS2/CW carries a climate class 5 rating, meaning it is designed to operate reliably in ambient temperatures up to 40°C. This makes it well suited to kitchens without mechanical ventilation or those that run particularly hot during peak service, where a lower-rated unit might struggle to maintain consistent temperatures.
