What is the difference between a warmer and a rethermalizer?
Warmers are designed to hold food that has already been heated to the appropriate serving temperature of 150 degrees Fahrenheit or higher. Rethermalizers, on the other hand, reheat chilled foods through the HACCP "danger zone" to a safe serving temperature within a controlled timeframe. To meet industry acceptance criteria, rethermalizers must be capable of heating contents from 40-165 degrees Fahrenheit within 120 minutes and maintaining a temperature of 150 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.
What types of pans fit with this food warmer?
This food warmer is compatible with full size and fractional size food pans (sold separately). Please note that fit may vary by brand, and some gaps could be present depending on the pan used.

This product keeps my food warm without drying it out. I am happy to use it, but you can never use 2 of them in the same socket (upper and lower). It breaks the socket and costs you a serious electrician expense.
Love having the extra room for a full and 1/3 pan or (4) 1/3 pans. We did have to take it apart and tighten the bolts since they came off after a few months. Heats up fast and keeps constant temperature. A decent product for the price.
I've been using this for a couple months now. When you tip it upside down to empty it there is a lot of banging around and you could hear something sliding back and forth. I removed the bottom plate and a number of bolts had come off. I replaced all the bolts and used some lock tight to hopefully keep them in place. The only question is how to secure the metal heat shield so it doesn't keep floating around. It has four studs and bolts that I'm guessing were tack welded to the bottom?
Thank you for your review, Nathan! We are sorry this product has not worked well for you. A Customer Solutions Representative will contact you soon!
