"This heat strip works great for keeping foods hot on our pass thru window. It came really quick and was pretty easy to install since we knew how to hard wire it in."

Ultimate Heating Power

This strip warmer uses a durable metal sheathed element to provide 1200 watts of heating power, hot enough to maintain peak serving temperatures but gentle enough to prevent drying or overcooking. Metal guards support the heating element without affecting heat distribution. This unit can be hardwired or powered using a compatible cord and plug (sold separately), and requires a 120V electrical connection for operation.

Infinite Controls

Side-mounted infinite controls allow you to make adjustments to the heat level so that you can choose what works best for the food you are serving.

Medium-Duty Housing

The warmer’s medium-duty stainless steel housing provides durability and corrosion resistance at an exceptional value, making it ideal for a busy kitchen environment. For your convenience, mounting brackets are included to make installation as easy as possible.

This product sparked and shorted after being used for only 3 weeks. Webstaurant then offered to do nothing as the warranty is only applicable "inside the continental United States", so buyer beware if you live elsewhere and this things goes to toast.

We appreciate your review, Nathan. We wish this Avantco 60 inch High Wattage Strip Warmer with Adjustable Infinite Controls - 120V, 1550W would have worked out for you. Our Customer Solutions team will remain in contact with you about this.

Bought two of these for a lightly used station. More than 1" clearance above unit. Used for a little over a year, not daily by any means. The electrical connectors inside the unit melted. This product is a waste of money to purchase and a bigger waste to have to have them ripped out and a better quality unit installed in its place. Avoid!

Thank you for your review, Nelson! We are sorry this product has not worked well for you. A Customer Solutions Representative will contact you soon!

Bought three of these and the control knob has gone out of two of them. Already purchased one replacement and now that has gone out. Be careful about how you mount these because they will not honor the warranty if you do not have the proper clearance above and below the warmer.

We appreciate your review, Stuart. We wish this product would have worked out for you. Our Customer Solutions team will remain in contact with you about this.

2nd one in 2 years, switch is defiantly the weak link in this unit. Ill see if I can buy the switch separately before I buy a 3rd

Thank you for your feedback! We’re sorry you did not prefer this product. For recommendations, please contact our Customer Solutions team.

We love having this warmer on our serving line. We bought it in April 2019 and the control burned out 5 months later. We contacted customer service and they promptly shipped us a replacement. If not for need for replacement, I would have given 5 stars. Note that lamp does NOT produce much if any visible light. This makes it easy to forget that is on.
