Overview

Waldorf GPL8900E-B 800 Series 900mm Electric Griddle Low Back Bench Model

The Waldorf GPL8900E-B is a 900mm electric griddle from the 800 Series, designed for high-volume commercial kitchens that demand consistent, reliable cooking performance. Built in New Zealand from 304 stainless steel, this bench model features a 20mm thick machined griddle plate powered by 12kW heating elements, delivering even heat across the full cooking surface for everything from breakfast items to burgers and proteins.

The GPL8900E-B offers a single temperature control zone with separate left and right heat zones, each governed by a 50-300°C thermostat, giving operators precise control over different cooking tasks simultaneously. A stainless steel grease drawer, top weld sealed plates, and overlapping plate edges at the front and rear make cleaning fast and thorough, while optional ribbed or chrome mirror plate configurations provide versatility to suit varying menu requirements.

Key Benefits

• 20mm thick machined griddle plate retains and distributes heat evenly, reducing hot spots and improving cook consistency across the full 900mm surface.
• Separate left and right heat zones with independent thermostats allow different foods to be cooked at different temperatures simultaneously, maximising cooking flexibility.
• Overlapping plate edges at the front and rear channel grease efficiently into the stainless steel grease drawer, speeding up cleaning between service periods.
• Top weld sealed plates prevent grease and food debris from penetrating joints, making the cooking surface easier to maintain and more hygienic.
• Heavy-duty heat-resistant reinforced control knobs with easy-view settings reduce the risk of misreading temperatures during busy service.
• Adjustable bench legs with a height range of 80mm to 105mm and two additional rollers allow precise positioning and easy repositioning for cleaning or reconfiguration.
• Optional ribbed plate sections or hard chrome mirror plates provide configuration flexibility to match different menu styles without requiring a separate unit.
• Indicator lights for both power and heating status give kitchen staff an at-a-glance confirmation of operational readiness.
