Why Choose the Ultimate Series?

  • Lifetime-clog-free burners and fully porcelain-enameled oven cavities keep maintenance costs down.
  • Front gas shut-off and pull-out crumb trays simplify daily closing procedures.
  • Modular platform lets you add salamander or cheesemelter mounts without changing equipment lines.
Installation note: For combustible floors, a 6″ leg or caster base is required. Oversized cookware (12″ dia.+) should be kept to rear burners to prevent excess heat on the front rail.
