Fagor Kore 700 Benchtop Chrome Electric Griddle FT-E710CL

The Fagor FT-E710CL is an 800 mm-wide benchtop chrome electric griddle from the Kore 700 series, built for high-volume hotel, quick-service and bistro cooklines that want fast, even heat with the quickest possible clean-down between services. Its smooth mirror-chrome plate is driven by a 10 kW, 415V three-phase element under 100–300°C thermostatic control, on a deep-drawn AISI-304 stainless steel body rated IPX5 and weighing 137 kg net.

Why operators choose the FT-E710CL

• Mirror-chrome cooking surface — reflects heat for fast, even cooking and wipes clean between services, so product changeovers are quick.
• 10 kW three-phase element — rapid heat-up and recovery keep the wide chrome plate at temperature through peak service.
• Thermostatic 100–300°C control — two front knobs set the surface temperature, backed by a safety thermostat.
• Front grease trough and tray — the forward-tilted plate sends fat to a collection tray at the front of the unit.
• 1.5 mm AISI-304 deep-drawn top — rounded edges and hidden screws leave nowhere for grime to sit during clean-down.
• IPX5 water protection — wash-down-ready build with front access to components for servicing.

Specifications

Venue suitability

The FT-E710CL suits hotels, clubs, quick-service restaurants and busy bistros running long breakfast and grill services across a full-width flat-top, with the chrome surface cutting scrape-down and wipe-out time between rushes. It requires a 415V three-phase supply, so it is not the right fit for single-phase-only sites, and kitchens chasing maximum sear on red meat may lean towards the thick mild steel plate of the FT-E710L instead.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Why choose the chrome FT-E710CL over the mild steel FT-E710L? A: The chrome plate releases food cleanly and wipes down faster between services, which suits high-volume mixed menus and frequent product changeovers. The FT-E710L instead carries a thick 12–15 mm mild steel plate aimed at heavy searing and browning. Both share the 800 mm-wide, 10 kW three-phase format.

Q: Is the FT-E710CL gas or electric? A: It is fully electric — 415V three-phase at 10 kW. The "NG" in some legacy listings is a naming artifact on an electric model; no gas connection is required.

Q: How is the plate temperature controlled? A: Thermostatic control adjusts the chrome surface between 100°C and 300°C via two front knobs, with a separate safety thermostat fitted.

Q: What are the dimensions and weight? A: The griddle measures 800 × 730 × 290 mm (W×D×H) and weighs 137 kg net, packing to 822 × 840 × 535 mm for transport.

Q: How does it handle grease during service? A: The plate is tilted forward so fat runs to a front trough and removable collection tray, and the IPX5-rated body stands up to full wash-down at close.

Q: What warranty is included with the FT-E710CL? A: 2 years parts & labour plus 2 years parts only, with product registration within 14 days of invoice.
