Description
A 36.5-inch electric countertop griddle with a 1/2-inch steel plate and 2 independently controlled heat zones.
The Wells G19 is a G-Series electric countertop griddle with a 34.25" x 18.3" cooking surface (625 sq. in.). Enclosed tubular elements are clamped to the bottom of a 1/2" thick steel plate, and 2 positive-off thermostats each control a 17-inch-wide section from 200°F to 450°F.
