Fagor FT-G905 R 900 Series Countertop Ribbed Gas Griddle

The Fagor FT-G905 R is a countertop gas griddle with a ribbed mild steel cooking plate, designed for use in professional kitchens where consistent, high-volume cooking of meat, fish, and vegetables is a daily requirement. It sits within Fagor’s 900 Series range — a line built to a commercial standard and intended to integrate with other appliances in the same suite.

In practice, the ribbed plate delivers the charred finish and defined grill marks that operators need for a range of menu items, from steaks and chicken to fish fillets and griddled vegetables. The 9.25kW gas output supports fast heat-up from cold and reasonable recovery between batches, which matters when a kitchen is working through a sustained lunch or dinner service. The 20mm plate thickness helps the surface hold temperature under load — a thinner plate tends to drop quickly when cold product is placed down in volume.

From an operational standpoint, the unit offers a number of practical advantages:

• Push-button ignition simplifies startup at the beginning of service
• Stainless steel construction supports regular cleaning without surface degradation
• A high-capacity grease collection drawer reduces the need for interruptions during busy service
• Countertop format keeps the footprint compact on cramped pass or prep areas
• Compatibility with other Fagor 900 Series units allows consistent suite configuration

As a countertop gas appliance, the FT-G905 R requires a natural gas connection with appropriate pipework and a certified gas installer for commissioning. Ventilation must comply with local extraction requirements, and at 70kg the unit will need two people to position safely on a suitable surface. The 400mm cooking width suits small to medium kitchens; higher-volume operations cooking a significant proportion of grilled items through peak service may find a wider plate more appropriate to their throughput demands.

This unit is a practical choice for independent restaurants, pub kitchens, hotel operations, and similar sites with regular demand for grilled and charred dishes. It is best suited to kitchens where the griddle is one of several cooking stations rather than the primary workhorse of the entire menu. For operations with considerably higher throughput or continuous full-plate use across a long service, a heavier-duty or wider model may be worth considering.
