Waldorf Bold RNB8609E-B 900mm Electric Griddle Cooktop – Bench Model

The Waldorf Bold RNB8609E-B is a 900mm electric cooktop bench model built for high-volume commercial kitchens. It features a full 900mm griddle configuration with three 3.6kW griddle elements, 12mm thick mild steel griddle plates, and a 50–320°C thermostat per 300mm griddle section, giving operators precise, zone-by-zone temperature control across the entire cooking surface.

Constructed with a welded 304 stainless steel hob and heavy-duty aluminised steel internal components, the RNB8609E-B is engineered for durability and ease of maintenance. The bench model stands on four 63mm diameter stainless steel legs with adjustable feet offering 80–105mm height adjustment, plus two additional rollers for easy repositioning. Default finish is black with other colour options available, and optional hot plate or open radiant elements allow the unit to be configured for broader cooking requirements.
