SKUWGR240X BrandWaring

The Waring WGR240X Electric Griddle

The Waring WGR240X is a 24-inch electric countertop griddle with a 24 x 16 inch grilling surface engineered for even heat distribution across the entire cooking area. Adjustable thermostat to 570°F covers everything from cracked eggs and pancakes at the low end to seared burgers and chicken at the high end. Sized for breakfast bars, diners, and small kitchens that need full griddle capability without the floor footprint.

24 By 16 Inch Grilling Surface With Even Heat

The 24-inch wide surface with improved even-heat distribution lets the operator cook eggs, hamburgers, fish, chicken, vegetables, and more without hot spots or cold zones. Improved heat distribution over earlier Waring griddle generations means more usable cooking area for the same plate size.

Adjustable Thermostat to 570°F

Continuous-range thermostat reaches 570°F at the high end, hot enough for sear duty on burgers and steaks. Power and Ready indicator lights confirm the unit is heating and at set temperature.

Oversized 21 Inch Removable Grease Tray

The 21-inch fully removable grease tray catches drippings across nearly the full 24-inch surface width. Removable for easy cleanup at end-of-shift.

Extra-Tall Splash Guards

Extra-tall steel splash guards with tapered front-ends protect against grease and spills, reducing back-of-counter cleanup and keeping splatter contained to the cooking surface.

Build

Brushed stainless steel housing. Heat-resistant handles stay cool during extended cooking. 240V/3300W operation.

The Waring WGR240X Electric Griddle

About Electric Griddles

Commercial electric griddles are built for kitchens that need a flat, even cooking surface but don't have a gas line. They're easier to install than gas models and deliver steady heat across the plate. These units handle breakfast, burgers, sandwiches, and high-volume menus. Countertop models come in a range of sizes to match your space and output needs.

Common Types and Configurations

Commercial electric griddle countertop: Sits on a prep counter and saves floor space. Available in several widths to fit your layout.
Commercial electric griddle 120V: Plugs into standard 120V outlets. Best for low volume or kitchens with limited electrical service.
Commercial electric flat top griddle: Smooth plate for eggs, pancakes, burgers, and sandwiches. Common in diners and breakfast spots.
Small commercial electric griddles: Compact units for low volume kitchens or as a backup station.
36 inch electric commercial griddle: Mid-size unit that fits most full service kitchens running steady volume.

What to Look at Before You Buy

Size and width: Match the griddle to your menu volume and counter space. Small units work for low volume. Larger units handle more output per service.
Voltage: Commercial electric griddles run on 120V or 240V. Higher voltage means faster heat recovery and better performance under heavy use. Check your kitchen's electrical capacity before you buy.
Plate thickness: Thicker plates hold heat better and cook more evenly. Thin plates heat up fast but lose temp under heavy use.
Plate finish: Smooth plates are standard. Grooved plates add grill marks and help drain grease.
Controls: Manual controls are simple and reliable. Thermostatic controls give you more precise temps across zones.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of griddle do restaurants use?

Most restaurants use gas griddles for faster heat-up and lower operating costs. Electric griddles are common in kitchens without gas, food trucks, and spots where precise temp control matters. The best commercial electric griddles give you even heat, steady temps, and easier installation than gas.

What is the difference between a gas and electric commercial griddle?

Gas griddles heat up and recover faster, and usually cost less to run in high-volume kitchens. Electric griddles are easier to install, give you more precise temp control, and work where gas isn't available. If you don't have gas or want a simpler install, go electric.

What size commercial electric griddle do I need?

It comes down to your menu and peak volume. Small commercial electric griddles work for low volume or as a backup. A 36 inch electric commercial griddle fits most full service kitchens. If breakfast or grilled items are a big part of your menu and you run high volume, go bigger to avoid bottlenecks.
