Roller Grill PID700 Dual Zone Induction Hob

The Roller Grill PID700 is a dual zone induction hob designed for professional use. It runs two fully independent cooking zones, each with its own digital power control, allowing a cook to manage two separate tasks simultaneously without either zone influencing the other. The unit connects to a standard 13A supply, which removes the need for hardwired electrical installation and gives it genuine flexibility in where it can be used.

In service, the PID700 holds up well during sustained periods of use. The 20-level power control on each zone gives cooks the precision to move between delicate sauce work and rapid boiling without overadjusting. Because induction heats the pan directly rather than the surface beneath it, the response when increasing or reducing power is immediate. Recovery after introducing cold product is prompt, and heat drift when power is reduced is minimal — both qualities that matter during a busy service. The vitro-ceramic glass plate is robust enough for regular commercial use, and the raised front edge provides a practical degree of pan retention.

This hob suits a number of operational settings particularly well:

• Front-of-house theatre cooking where a clean, compact unit is needed
• Supplementary cooking capacity during peak service periods
• Stations where gas is unavailable or not permitted
• Kitchens with limited extraction, as induction produces significantly less ambient heat than gas or radiant electric

The 13A connection is worth considering carefully. It removes the need for hardwiring, but it draws from a single socket circuit — so it is worth checking the electrical load in your kitchen before committing. The unit is light and compact enough to be repositioned between services, which gives it a flexibility fixed range equipment cannot match. For kitchens running continuous high-output cooking across multiple zones, a heavier-duty configuration may be more appropriate.

If you are unsure whether the PID700 fits your kitchen's electrical setup or want to compare it against other induction options, the team is happy to work through that with you.
