Overview

Waldorf Bold CHLB8450G-LS 450mm Gas Chargrill Low Back Version with Leg Stand

The Waldorf Bold CHLB8450G-LS is a 450mm wide commercial gas chargrill mounted on a leg stand, designed for high-volume professional kitchens that demand consistent, authentic char-grilled results. Constructed from 304 stainless steel with a single 48MJ/hr stainless steel burner delivering 13.3kW of output, it provides even, intense heat across cast iron grates to produce the characteristic sear marks and flavour expected from a commercial chargrill.

Engineered in New Zealand as part of the Waldorf Bold range, this unit prioritises both cooking performance and ease of maintenance. The inclined grate arrangement channels grease into a front collection trough while a flare-reducing fin design minimises flare-ups, and the lift-out radiants, burners and grease tray baffles make thorough cleaning straightforward without specialist tools. Available in the default black finish or customised colours to suit kitchen fit-out requirements.

Key Benefits

• Authentic char marks and high searing temperatures suit a wide variety of proteins and vegetables for restaurant-quality results.
• Flare-reducing grate fin design with inclined positioning directs grease away from the flame into a front collection channel, significantly reducing unwanted flare-ups during service.
• Full pilot and flame failure protection per burner enhances operational safety and complies with commercial kitchen safety requirements.
• Reversible heavy-duty cast iron grates extend service life and allow the cooking surface to be flipped for continued use, reducing replacement costs.
• Lift-out radiants, burners and grease tray baffles allow rapid, thorough cleaning between services with minimal downtime.
• Variable high-low temperature control gives chefs precise heat management across different menu items and cooking stages.
• Heavy-duty, heat-resistant reinforced control knobs withstand the rigours of a busy commercial environment and remain comfortable to operate at high ambient temperatures.
• Leg stand configuration provides a stable, self-contained installation option without requiring a separate equipment base.
• Accepts both natural gas and LPG via a 3/4 BSP male connection, offering flexibility across different site gas supplies.
