APW Wyott CW-2Ai X*PERT Classic Insulated Countertop Cooker/Server, 22 Qt., Full-Size 12" x 20"
Description
A full-size countertop cooker/server that rethermalizes refrigerated or frozen pre-cooked food and holds it at serving temperature.
The APW Wyott CW-2Ai is an X*PERT series insulated countertop cooker/server with a 22 qt. full-size 12" x 20" well. Serpentine-shaped high-wattage elements spread heat evenly, a steel element support reflects heat toward the well, and 1" fiberglass insulation keeps heat in the food and off the counter. It takes full-size or fractional steam table pans, or round insets with adapter plates. Thermostatic control and knob guards are standard.
