Description

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

Model PGT14IT • replaces GR14IT / GR14ITB

Turn out perfectly pressed panini, juicy chicken breasts, burgers, quesadillas and more—fast. Star’s Pro-Max 2.0® puts a full 14.5 × 14.2 inch smooth cast-iron surface in a low-profile, countertop footprint, giving busy kitchens the searing power of a heavy grill without sacrificing space or speed.

Key features & benefits

  • Smooth cast-iron plates retain heat for rapid recovery and superior caramelization.
  • Performance torsion-spring hinge tested to millions of cycles delivers even pressure from front to back without crushing product.
  • Ergonomic curved handle stays cool and gives operators full control during peak rushes.
  • Analog thermostat 175 – 550 °F with easy-read dial plus an integrated digital timer for repeatable results.
  • 3-inch “flat landing” opening accommodates over-stuffed sandwiches and burritos without squeezing out the fillings.
  • Stainless-steel exterior wipes clean fast and stands up to commercial abuse.
  • Removable front-mounted grease drawer simplifies daily cleaning.
  • 2.5″ adjustable metal legs level the unit and provide clearance for countertop sanitation.
  • Pre-wired 6-ft cord with NEMA plug—just set, plug and cook.
  • cULus & UL EPH Classified • Made in the USA.

Why cast iron?

  • Holds heat 3× longer than aluminum for quicker bounce-back between orders.
  • Ideal for protein-heavy menus (chicken, steak, burgers) that demand consistent surface temps.
  • Seasoned surface develops natural non-stick characteristics over time.
