this chef base is always a good deal when it comes to needing a place to put your griddle or flat top on. Easy access with the ability to put 4 full size pans in it and 6" pans. Make sure to buy the 4" deep pans only or it won't close

Love this refrigeration unit!! We keep only meat in it and it works so well!! We have our roaster and friers on either side and a very small kitchen. It keeps temperature well and is so convenient that all the meats we use regularly are kept right under where they are cooked! We have had it over a year now and we are not sure how we lived without it!
