Polar GD873-A U-Series 1 Door and 2 Drawer Counter Fridge 282Ltr

The Polar GD873-A is a commercial counter fridge from the U-Series range, combining a single solid self-closing door with two drawers to deliver 282 litres of refrigerated storage in a compact under-bench footprint. Built from easy-clean stainless steel with a flat countertop surface, it suits cafes, bars, restaurants and busy food service kitchens where bench space and organised ingredient access are equally important.

Forced air cooling with automatic defrost maintains a consistent temperature between -2°C and 5°C even during heavy service, while the digital temperature display gives all staff a simple, at-a-glance way to monitor and adjust settings. Lockable castor wheels allow straightforward repositioning around the kitchen, and the unit accommodates up to six full-size 1/1 GN pans across the drawer and door compartments, making it practical for structured mise en place.
