Waldorf RNL8616GEC 800 Series 900mm Gas Range Electric Convection Oven Low Back Version

The Waldorf RNL8616GEC is a heavy-duty 900mm gas range with electric convection oven from the renowned 800 Series, engineered for the demands of busy commercial kitchens. The cooktop combines two 28MJ/hr open burners with a 600mm smooth griddle powered by two 20MJ/hr griddle burners, while the underbench 2/1 GN electric convection oven delivers consistent, fan-forced results across a temperature range of 150 to 300°C. Constructed from 304 stainless steel and made in New Zealand, this low back version is built to perform reliably day after day.

Thoughtful design details make the RNL8616GEC practical for high-volume operations. Flame failure protection is fitted to all burners for safety, removable cast iron burners and vitreous enamel pot stands simplify cleaning, and the oven cavity is welded and lined with vitreous enamel for durability and hygiene. Adjustable feet plus two additional rollers allow straightforward positioning and levelling on the kitchen floor, while reinforced control knobs and a cool touch stainless steel door handle withstand the rigours of continuous professional use.
