Overview
The Kratos 29Y-005 is a 36-inch stainless steel commercial countertop griddle with three independently controlled burners delivering 90,000 total BTU, ETL certified for restaurant and food truck use.
Sitting a size below the 48-inch 29Y-006 in the same Kratos line, this model trades one burner and 30,000 BTU for a smaller footprint and a lighter 224-pound weight, worth checking against counter space before ordering. The gas hose kit is sold separately as item 29R-005.
- 36 in W x 30.42 in D x 15.16 in H, 224 lbs
- 3 burners, 90,000 total BTU
- ETL certified, 3/4 in gas connection
- 1-year commercial-use warranty
Who it's for
Fits a food truck, cafe, or diner that needs three cooking zones without committing to the full 48-inch model. Larger operations running high covers across four menu items at once should size up.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers running it in restaurants and on food trucks describe it as bigger and better built than the photos implied and mention easy cleanup, with one calling a minor hot spot an expected quirk rather than a flaw. One buyer had a unit arrive not working and said the seller never resolved the issue.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Three independently controlled 30,000 BTU burners
- ETL certified for commercial foodservice
- Adjustable legs and side splash guards
- Lighter and narrower than the 48-inch sibling model
- Gas hose kit sold separately
- Warranty is void if used outside a commercial setting
- Heavy enough that moving it solo is difficult
Performance notes
Three 30,000 BTU burners on a 3/4-inch polished plate give enough separation to run bacon on one zone and hash browns on another without one order holding up the next. Adjustable stainless steel legs and side splash guards are aimed at a commercial line, and the removable drip tray is the main maintenance point day to day.
