Roband GT700 Commercial Electric Griddle Toaster Combination (725mm)

The Roband GT700 Commercial Electric Griddle Toaster is a heavy-duty, high-capacity countertop combination appliance engineered specifically for high-volume Australian commercial kitchens, busy cafes, takeaway venues, breakfast stations, pubs, clubs, and catering facilities. Measuring 725mm Wide x 541mm Deep x 374mm High, this versatile dual-function benchtop unit features a large 700mm x 400mm griddle plate situated directly above a spacious toasting compartment—allowing chefs to sear steaks, bacon, eggs, and burger patties on top while simultaneously toasting bread, buns, or melting cheese below.

Designed and manufactured in Australia for demanding foodservice operations, the GT700 features an 8mm thick steel griddle plate paired with superior compacted heating elements for rapid thermal recovery and precise temperature control. Built with an independent dual-element system, the GT700 allows separate control of the griddle and toasting functions. For maximum energy efficiency during off-peak trading shifts, the larger GT700 features independent left and right zone controls for both the griddle surface and toasting cavity. Housing a full-size 25mm deep Gastronorm pan inside its lower compartment, this 5.96 kW unit operates on single-phase, 2-phase, or 3-phase (+N) electrical supplies (26A) and is backed by a 12-Month Commercial Warranty.

Why Choose the Roband GT700 Commercial Griddle Toaster?

Choosing the Roband GT700 Griddle Toaster equips busy commercial kitchens with a space-saving, dual-action cooking station engineered to maximize food throughput during peak breakfast and lunch rushes.

Key reasons commercial kitchen operators specify the Roband GT700 include:

• Dual-Function Space Saver: Combines a high-output top hotplate griddle with a dedicated lower toasting cavity, allowing kitchen staff to execute complete breakfast and burger orders from a single benchtop footprint.

• 8mm Solid Steel Griddle Plate: 8mm thick heavy-duty steel plate provides superior heat retention, preventing surface temperature drop when loaded with cold burger patties, steaks, or bacon.

• Independent Dual-Element Architecture: Separate heating element systems power the top griddle and lower toaster independently, ensuring optimal cooking performance without compromise.

• Dual Left/Right Zone Operation: Features independent left and right zone switching for both the griddle and toaster compartments—allowing operators to shut down one side during quiet trading periods to cut electricity overheads.

• Full-Size Gastronorm Pan Compatibility: The spacious toasting compartment comfortably accommodates a full-size Gastronorm pan (1/1 GN, 25mm depth) for large-batch toasting and cheese melting.

• Dual-Skin Forward Grease Collection Box: Integrated, forward-positioned grease box features a dual-skin design for lower touch temperatures, minimizing spill risks while conserving benchtop depth.

• Precision Thermostatic Temperature Control: Thermostatically regulated griddle elements deliver fast thermal recovery and exact plate temperature control.

• Removable Crumb Tray & Wire Rack Assemblies: Includes a removable stainless steel crumb tray for easy cleaning, alongside a heavy-duty wire rack with integrated rack stops and bun stops to prevent food items from falling.

• Durable Brushed Stainless Steel Cabinet: Built from commercial-grade stainless steel with a stylish brushed finish that resists corrosion and wipes down easily.

• Flexible Phase Connection Options: Can be hardwired by an electrician for Single Phase, 2-Phase (+N), or 3-Phase (+N) electrical supplies to balance power loads across kitchen sub-boards.

Operating & Cleaning Guidelines

1. Installation & Hardwiring: Have a certified electrician hardwire the GT700 to your kitchen power supply (3-phase wiring recommended). Position the unit on a flat, level, heat-resistant workbench.

2. Dual-Zone Operation: Switch on either the left, right, or both sides depending on service demand. Set the griddle thermostat to your target cooking temperature and allow the 8mm steel plate to pre-heat fully before adding meats or eggs.

3. Simultaneous Toasting: Place slices of bread, burger buns, or cheese-topped pans onto the wire rack inside the lower compartment while cooking on the top plate. Use the integrated rack stop to slide items in and out safely.

4. Daily Hygiene & Maintenance: At the end of trading shifts, scrape grease from the top hotplate into the forward-mounted grease box. Empty and wash the dual-skin grease box and removable crumb tray in warm soapy water. Wipe down stainless steel exterior surfaces with a soft microfibre cloth and mild food-safe sanitiser.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Does the Roband GT700 come with a power plug?

No. Due to its heavy 5,960W (26A) power draw, the GT700 must be hardwired directly into your building's electrical mains by a licensed electrician.

2. Can the Roband GT700 be connected to 3-phase power?

Yes. The GT700 is engineered for versatile electrical setup and can be wired for Single Phase, 2-Phase + Neutral, or 3-Phase + Neutral. Electricians generally recommend 3-phase wiring for commercial kitchens to evenly balance power loads across phases.

3. How does the dual-zone function save energy?

The GT700 features independent left and right heating controls. During quiet trading hours, kitchen staff can turn off one half of the machine completely, saving electricity while keeping a active 350mm cooking zone ready for orders.

4. What fits inside the lower toasting cavity?

The lower toasting area accommodates multiple slices of bread, buns, or garlic bread, and is large enough to fit a full-size 1/1 Gastronorm pan (25mm depth) for high-volume batch melting or warming.

5. What warranty is included with the Roband GT700?

This commercial griddle toaster combination comes standard with a 12-Month Commercial Parts and Labour Warranty.
