Description

Star Pro-Max 2.0® 14" Grooved Cast-Iron Sandwich Grill

Model PGT14I • replaces legacy CG14I / CG14IB

Built in the USA for day-in, day-out commercial abuse, the Pro-Max 2.0® 14" sandwich grill delivers authentic panini marks, rapid recovery, and rock-solid consistency thanks to its dense cast-iron platens and industry-leading torsion-spring hinge. Just dial in your temperature (175 – 550 °F), drop the lid, and turn out perfectly pressed sandwiches, steaks, chicken, wraps and more—no babysitting required.

Built for High-Volume Kitchens

  • Heat retention that pays off: Cast iron weighs 3× more than aluminum and rebounds 5× faster, so your 30th sandwich looks as good as your first.
  • Even cooking edge-to-edge: The platen’s torsion hinge keeps consistent contact across thick or uneven products.
  • Compact footprint: Just 16.5" wide—fits the space of a standard 1/3-size sheet pan.

Included With Your Grill

  • Pre-wired 6-ft cord & plug (see electrical options above)
  • Stainless grease drawer
  • Operator’s manual & quick-start guide
  • 1-year parts & labor warranty certificate
