About the Product and Brand
Benchstar ES-5600L Electric Salamander
The Benchstar ES‑5600L Electric Salamander is a premium commercial finishing station engineered for high‑efficiency performance in professional kitchens, cafés, and catering operations. With a powerful 5.6 kW electric heating system and a wide 790 mm cooking surface, it delivers intense, even radiant heat ideal for broiling, toasting, grilling, melting cheese, and adding perfect colour and texture to a wide range of dishes. The unit’s adjustable grill height (up to 140 mm) and proportional temperature control knobs give chefs precise control over heat and finishing results, helping elevate presentation and speed up service during peak hours. Its durable stainless‑steel construction, cool‑to‑touch handles, and anti‑slip feet make it built to withstand the rigours of daily commercial use while remaining safe and stable on busy kitchen benches
Designed with both performance and practicality in mind, the ES‑5600L also features a removable wire grid and stainless‑steel drip tray for easy cleaning and maintenance, keeping operations smooth and hygienic. The recessed front panel protects controls from radiant heat, and the overall robust build ensures lasting reliability. Whether you’re finishing steaks with a perfect char, caramelising gratins, crisping sandwiches, or quickly re‑heating plated dishes just before service, this electric salamander enhances kitchen workflow and helps deliver consistently high‑quality results that will impress customers and boost efficiency.
