Overview

Benchstar MME-500H-S Heavy Duty Electric Steamer Display Cabinet 1.2kW

The Benchstar MME-500H-S is a heavy duty electric steamer display cabinet designed to keep pies, pastries, hot meals and similar products at safe serving temperatures in busy commercial environments. Running on a standard 240V/10A outlet at 1.2kW, it suits cafes, bakeries, takeaways, restaurants and convenience outlets where consistent hot food presentation is essential. Note: this unit is designed to hold food warm, not to cook food.

The cabinet combines a double-glazed display with halogen downlights to maximise product visibility while retaining heat effectively. A humidity water reservoir keeps the interior moist to preserve food quality, while the easy-clean stainless steel interior, one-piece moulded anti-leak water tank and mechanical controls make daily operation and maintenance straightforward for front-of-house staff.
