Overview

Waldorf Bold GPLB8600G-B 600mm Gas Griddle Low Back Version Bench Model

The Waldorf Bold GPLB8600G-B is a 600mm wide bench-mounted gas griddle designed for high-output commercial kitchens. Built in New Zealand from 304 stainless steel, it delivers 53MJ/hr across two burners through a thermostatic control system, with a temperature range of 100 to 290°C, making it well suited to everything from breakfast service to burgers and grilled proteins.

The griddle features a 20mm thick cooking plate with top weld sealed construction for even heat retention and a smooth cooking surface as standard, with optional ribbed or chrome mirror plate configurations available. Push-button piezo ignition, heavy-duty reinforced control knobs, a stainless steel grease drawer, and adjustable feet with two additional rollers all contribute to straightforward daily operation and servicing. The unit ships in the Waldorf Bold range with default black finish, and alternative colour options are available to suit specific fit-out requirements.
