Mine lasted for a few years, but now both grills won’t hold a pilot light and there doesn’t seem to be a replacement in the parts section for these units. Now they are WAY more expensive than they were when I originally purchased 2 of these.

We purchased this unit for use in our restaurant approximately one month ago. Immediately upon attempting to use the flattop after installation, it became apparent the left side pilot light would not remain lit on a consistent basis and the left side of the unit would not retain a consistent temperature. We would like to file a warranty claim for the repair and/or substitution of a new product. Please advise.

Have had issues with this griddle less than six months of use. Low flame at first, but remedied. Like many others reviews, right burner/pilot will light, but goes off after first cycle during service. LP pressure and regulators have been checked by a certified tech. Very discouraging, Researching new brands.

Thank you for your review, James! Our Customer Solutions team has been in touch with you about this griddle. If you have any further questions, please contact Customer Solutions.
