Overview

Waldorf GPL8600G-B 800 Series 600mm Gas Griddle Low Back Bench Model

The Waldorf GPL8600G-B is a 600mm bench-mount gas griddle from the trusted 800 Series, engineered for high-volume commercial kitchens requiring consistent, reliable performance across breakfast service, burgers, seafood and more. Built in New Zealand from 304 stainless steel, it features a 20mm thick smooth griddle plate with top weld sealed construction, delivering even heat retention and a robust cooking surface that handles the demands of continuous service.

Powered by a 53 MJ/h thermostatic burner system across two burners, the GPL8600G-B offers precise temperature control between 100 and 290°C, ensuring consistent results across the full plate. Push-button piezo ignition, a stainless steel grease drawer, heavy-duty reinforced control knobs and adjustable feet with two additional rollers all contribute to a unit that is straightforward to operate, clean and maintain. Optional ribbed or chrome mirror plate configurations are also available to suit different menu requirements.
