Buffalo 600 Series Freestanding Electric Griddle with Convection Oven

The Buffalo 600 Series freestanding electric griddle and convection oven is a self-contained cooking station that combines two distinct cooking functions in a single floor-standing unit. The upper section is a dual-zone mild steel griddle plate, and the lower section houses a fan-assisted electric oven with a grill function. Both appliances operate independently and are hardwired for permanent installation.

In a working kitchen, this kind of combination unit earns its place by consolidating what would otherwise require two separate pieces of equipment. The griddle's dual-zone plate means you can run one side at full cooking temperature while using the other to hold food — useful during staggered service or when managing different menu items simultaneously. The 10mm plate thickness helps retain heat under load, which matters during busy periods when the surface is in constant use. Below, the convection oven's fan-assisted cavity delivers even heat distribution without the need to rotate shelves, keeping cooking consistent across the full capacity of the oven. The grill function adds further flexibility, allowing browning and finishing without a separate appliance.

The practical benefits for a kitchen operator include:

• Dual-zone griddle control allows simultaneous cooking and holding on one surface
• Fan-assisted oven reduces cooking times and delivers even results throughout the cavity
• Integrated grill function removes the need for a separate appliance
• Stainless steel construction throughout supports everyday cleaning and longevity
• Single footprint replaces two appliances, preserving kitchen floor space

This unit requires a hardwired electrical connection — it is not plug-and-play, and an appropriately rated supply with correct circuit protection will need to be confirmed with a qualified electrician before installation. At 72.1kg, delivery and positioning will need planning; access routes and final placement should be considered in advance. The 600mm width suits kitchens where space is limited but output requirements are moderate.

This combination unit works well in small to mid-sized operations — café kitchens, pub kitchens, hotel breakfast stations, and similar environments where a versatile cooking station needs to carry a reasonable volume of covers without occupying excessive floor space. It is not intended for the highest-volume operations running continuous, heavy griddle service across multiple sections; for those environments, a heavier-duty or wider unit may be more appropriate.

If you are unsure whether this unit suits your service volume or available electrical supply, we are happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.
