Product Description
The Fagor FT-E905 L is a countertop electric griddle from the 900 Series range, fitted with a smooth mild steel cooking plate. It is designed for commercial kitchens that need a dependable, high-output griddling surface in a compact footprint — producing everything from breakfast items and burgers to fish and vegetables without the complexity of a gas installation.
The 20mm thick mild steel plate is well suited to sustained, high-temperature cooking. Mild steel holds and distributes heat evenly across the surface, which matters during a busy lunch or dinner service when the plate is loaded continuously and recovery time between batches directly affects throughput. A 7.5kW three-phase supply drives rapid initial heat-up and helps the plate return to temperature quickly after cold product is placed on it — reducing the risk of uneven cooking or stalling during peak periods.
From an operational standpoint, the smooth plate configuration offers a few practical advantages over ribbed alternatives:
- Flat surface handles a wide variety of proteins, vegetables and bread products without marking
- Easier to clean down during and after service compared to grooved plates
- A high-capacity grease drawer reduces how often staff need to interrupt service to empty waste
- Stainless steel construction holds up well under daily kitchen conditions and resists corrosion
- Countertop format fits onto existing prep surfaces or Fagor 900 Series stands where bench space is at a premium
Installation requires a three-phase electrical supply — this is worth confirming before ordering, as sites with single-phase power only will need an alternative. At 75kg the unit is substantial for a countertop appliance, so bench strength and the practicalities of positioning should be considered. The 400mm wide plate makes this model most practical for kitchens with moderate griddling demand; for sites running continuous high-volume griddle work across a full service, a wider or higher-capacity unit may be worth considering.
This griddle is a practical choice for hotels, pub kitchens, cafés and contract catering operations where reliable griddling output is needed without a full-scale range installation. It integrates cleanly into a Fagor 900 Series suite if you are building out a modular cooking line.
If you are unsure whether the plate width or power configuration is right for your service volumes, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, the FT-E905 L runs on a three-phase electrical supply. Before ordering, it is worth confirming with your electrician that your site can support this — kitchens with single-phase power only will need a different model.
- For moderate griddling demand — a café breakfast run, a pub lunch service or a hotel kitchen with controlled covers — the 400mm plate handles the workload well. If your operation requires continuous back-to-back griddling across a long service or at high volume, a wider plate unit may give you more headroom.
- Mild steel is the standard choice for most commercial griddle work — it builds up a seasoned surface over time, holds heat effectively, and copes well with high-temperature searing. Chrome plate tends to be better suited to delicate products or where a very precise, consistent surface temperature is needed; for general-purpose commercial griddling, mild steel is the more practical and cost-effective option.
