Why Choose Southbend Ultimate?

  • Durability first – all-stainless chassis, front rail & shelf withstand daily abuse and harsh cleaners.
  • Service simplified – standing pilots and front-accessible components keep downtime to a minimum.
  • Flexible workflow – open burners handle 14" stock pots while the extra-wide griddle cranks out breakfast or burgers.
  • Energy efficient convection – ½ hp fan motors move heat evenly for faster, more consistent baking & roasting.
Commercial Use Only. Installing on flooring other than quarry tile, cement or natural stone may require special accommodations. Oversized cookware (12"+ diameter) should be kept to the rear grates to avoid excessive heat in the front rail. See included manual and warranty sheet for full installation, operation and cleaning guidelines.
