Overview

Waldorf CHL8450G-LS 800 Series 450mm Gas Chargrill Low Back Version with Leg Stand

The Waldorf CHL8450G-LS is a 450mm wide gas chargrill from the renowned 800 Series, designed for high-volume commercial kitchens that demand consistent, authentic char-grilled results. Manufactured in New Zealand from 304 stainless steel, it delivers 48MJ/hr (13.3kW) of output through a stainless steel burner, producing even, intense heat across the entire grill surface for perfectly charred meats, seafood and vegetables service after service.

Mounted on a leg stand with an undershelf for practical storage, this low back configuration suits kitchens where overhead clearance or sightlines matter. Thoughtful engineering details including reversible heavy-duty cast iron grates, a flare-reducing fin design and a front grease collection channel make it as easy to maintain as it is to cook on, while full pilot and flame failure protection per burner keeps operations safe and compliant.
