Overview

Benchstar GH-550E Max~Electric Griddle

The Benchstar GH-550E Max~Electric Griddle is a robust benchtop flat grill built for demanding commercial kitchen environments. Its 12mm polished mild steel cooking plate delivers rapid, even heat across a 546 x 348mm hotplate surface, while a stainless steel body and durable internal heating elements ensure long-term reliability through continuous service in cafés, restaurants, canteens, and catering operations.

Running on a 240V, 3kW, 13A single-phase supply, the GH-550E reaches cooking temperatures between 50°C and 300°C via an adjustable thermostat, giving chefs precise control whether griddling eggs and pancakes at breakfast or searing burgers and steaks during a busy lunch service. A compact footprint of 550 x 496 x 270mm makes it equally at home on a crowded service bench or in a mobile catering setup, and thoughtful design details including a removable oil collector, deep drawn drainage hole, and surrounding splash guard keep cleanup fast between sittings.

Key Benefits

• Fast heat-up and strong heat recovery keep service moving during high-volume periods, minimising wait times between consecutive orders.
• Adjustable thermostat from 50°C to 300°C gives chefs full control over cooking temperature, suitable for delicate items like eggs through to high-heat searing of steaks and seafood.
• The 12mm polished mild steel plate retains and distributes heat evenly across the entire 546 x 348mm cooking surface, reducing hot spots and producing consistent results every time.
• A removable stainless steel front oil collector combined with a deep drawn drainage hole simplifies grease management and speeds up end-of-service cleaning.
• The 2mm stainless steel splash guard around the plate contains spatter and protects surrounding equipment and bench surfaces.
• Blue power and yellow heating indicator lights give operators an immediate, clear visual status of the griddle at all times, improving safety and workflow.
• Anti-slip rubber feet keep the unit stable on the bench during busy service, reducing the risk of movement or tipping.
• Compact dimensions suit smaller kitchens, food trucks, and pop-up catering environments where bench space is limited.
• Backed by a 1-year parts and labour warranty for commercial peace of mind.
