Hoshizaki Premier K 2 SL DL DR C U 2-Door Saladette Counter

The Hoshizaki Premier K 2 SL DL DR C U is a two-door refrigerated counter unit with an integrated saladette worktop, designed to keep fresh ingredients close to hand during food preparation and service. Built around a 1/1 GN worktop configuration, it provides a dedicated cold-holding prep surface alongside useful undercounter refrigerated storage — a practical combination for kitchens where prep and service happen in the same space.

Hoshizaki equipment is well regarded in commercial kitchens for consistent temperature holding and reliable build quality, and this unit follows that pattern. The saladette format is commonly used in pizza operations, sandwich bars, salad-focused restaurants, and any kitchen where fresh toppings or prepared ingredients need to be within arm’s reach of the operator without leaving the ambient environment. The castors make it straightforward to reposition or move the unit for cleaning, which matters in kitchens where floor hygiene is closely managed.

From an operational standpoint, the key advantages of this format include:

• Cold ingredient access at the point of assembly, reducing movement and improving throughput
• Undercounter refrigerated storage that extends capacity without taking up additional floor space
• GN-compatible worktop that works with standard insert pans for organised mise en place
• Castors allowing repositioning for deep cleaning or layout changes
• Hoshizaki construction supporting reliable day-to-day performance in busy service conditions

In terms of installation, this is a self-contained refrigerated unit requiring a standard electrical supply and adequate ventilation clearance around the condenser. It should be positioned on a level, stable surface appropriate to its footprint and weight. As with any refrigeration unit, it should not be sited directly adjacent to high-heat equipment without appropriate separation or ventilation planning.

This counter is well suited to small to medium kitchens — pizza restaurants, cafés, deli counters, and similar operations where a compact, practical prep station is needed. For higher-volume sites or larger prep teams requiring greater pan capacity or extended worktop length, a larger model from the same range may be worth considering.
