Overview

Waldorf GPL8600E-CB 800 Series 600mm Electric Griddle Low Back Cabinet Base

The Waldorf GPL8600E-CB is a 600mm electric griddle from the 800 Series, mounted on a fully enclosed cabinet base for a clean, professional kitchen finish. Powered by 7.2kW heating elements and fitted with a 20mm thick machined griddle plate, it offers a single temperature control zone across a 50 to 300°C thermostat range, making it well suited to high-volume breakfast service, burgers, and other flat-top cooking applications.

Constructed throughout in 304 stainless steel, the GPL8600E-CB is built for long-term durability and straightforward daily maintenance. The fully modular cabinet base integrates neatly into matched suite configurations, while top-weld sealed plates, overlapping plate edges, and a stainless steel grease drawer all contribute to fast, efficient cleaning between service periods. Optional ribbed or chrome mirror plate finishes allow the unit to be specified for a wider range of menu requirements. Manufactured in New Zealand and backed by a 24-month warranty.

Key Benefits

• Single temperature control zone with a 50 to 300°C thermostat range gives operators precise, consistent heat management across the entire cooking surface.
• 20mm thick machined griddle plate retains and distributes heat evenly, reducing hot spots and supporting high-throughput cooking without temperature recovery delays.
• Plate edges that overlap at both the front and rear channel grease efficiently away from the cooking surface, simplifying end-of-service cleaning and reducing turnaround time between shifts.
• Stainless steel grease drawer collects runoff in a contained, removable tray, keeping the work area tidy and making waste disposal quick and hygienic.
• Fully modular cabinet base constructed with a two-layer 304 stainless steel shell integrates neatly into a matched suite and provides robust, insulated storage beneath the cooking surface.
• Adjustable feet and two additional rollers make installation, repositioning, and routine servicing easier without requiring special equipment.
• Optional ribbed plate sections or mirror-finish hard chrome plates extend the unit's versatility to grilled meats, fish, and presentations that benefit from sear marks or a non-stick surface.
• Heavy-duty reinforced control knobs with easy-view settings and indicator lights for power and heating status support accurate operation even in fast-paced, busy kitchen environments.
