Waldorf GP8450G-CB 800 Series - 450mm Gas Griddle - Cabinet Base

Waldorf GP8450G-CB 800 Series 450mm Gas Griddle with Cabinet Base

The Waldorf GP8450G-CB is a compact yet high-performance 450mm gas griddle built on a cabinet base, forming part of Waldorf's respected 800 Series of commercial cooking equipment. At its core is a 40MJ thermostatic burner system paired with a 20mm thick griddle plate that delivers outstanding heat retention and consistent heat distribution across the entire cooking surface, making it ideal for busy breakfast services, burgers, seafood and everything in between.

Manufactured in New Zealand from 304 stainless steel with a welded hob surround and top weld sealed plates, this unit is engineered for the demands of high-volume commercial kitchens. The cabinet base provides enclosed storage, while practical features such as push-button piezo ignition, heavy-duty reinforced control knobs, a stainless steel grease drawer, and adjustable feet with two additional rollers make daily operation, cleaning and servicing straightforward.

Key Benefits

• Consistent, even heat across a 442mm x 530mm smooth cooking surface reduces hot spots and improves cook quality across the full griddle plate.
• Thermostatic temperature control between 100°C and 290°C allows precise adjustment to suit different proteins, batters and cooking styles without guesswork.
• The 20mm thick griddle plate retains heat effectively during high-volume service, recovering temperature quickly between loads and reducing cooking time variation.
• Push-button piezo ignition enables fast, reliable start-up without the need for a separate ignition source, keeping service flow uninterrupted.
• A dedicated stainless steel grease drawer channels fat away from the cooking zone and pulls out for quick emptying and cleaning, supporting food safety and faster turnaround.
• Top weld sealed plates and a welded hob surround eliminate gaps where grease and debris can accumulate, significantly reducing cleaning time and effort.
• Adjustable feet combined with two additional rollers make it easy to level the unit on uneven floors and reposition it during kitchen reorganisation or deep cleaning.
• Compatible with both natural gas and LPG, giving operators flexibility when installing in different venue configurations.
• Optional ribbed or chrome mirror plate inserts allow the same unit to handle a broader menu range, including char-style cooking or delicate items requiring a polished surface.
