Product Information

A neat and energy-efficient 2 hot plate electric cooker from the 500 Series range, designed for compact commercial kitchens where space and simplicity are key. With 3kW of power delivered through two cast iron boiling rings and three heat settings, it provides precise control for a variety of cooking tasks. The stainless steel body keeps it robust and easy to maintain, making it a practical addition to any kitchen setup. Three-position heat control allows kitchen staff to quickly and accurately adjust temperatures without any complicated settings or digital interfaces — straightforward operation that reduces the risk of errors during a busy service. Cast iron boiling rings are well-regarded in commercial kitchens for their ability to retain and distribute heat evenly, ensuring that cookware heats consistently and cooking results are reliable across different dishes and preparation methods. The stainless steel body is both hygienic and hard-wearing, resistant to the moisture, heat, and cleaning chemicals that are part of everyday kitchen life. At just 8kg, the unit is light enough to reposition as needed, adding to its overall versatility. For kitchens in need of a dependable, low-maintenance electric cooking solution that won't take up valuable space, the 500 Series 2 Hot Plate is a smart, practical choice.
