Why this countertop chargrill earns its place
Real chargrill cooking is about one thing: lava rocks. They distribute heat evenly across the cooking surface, absorb fats as they render, and give you that genuine charred crust without the smokiness that transfers between different proteins. The CGS600 sits at 600 mm wide — enough for serious cover during service — and combines that lava rock performance with genuine control over what you're cooking.
Two independently controlled star burners let you run different heat zones simultaneously. Cook steaks at high temperature on one side while burgers rest at medium on the other. Three adjustable cooking levels give you fine-tuning within each zone. That means you're not fighting the grill or babysitting each item — the heat is where you want it when you need it. The cooking surface itself runs at 8600 W overall, with enough grunt to recover heat quickly after placing cold meat and to hold consistent cooking without lag.
Build is stainless steel frame at 420 mm high and 515 mm deep — a solid, professional footprint. 25 kg weight means it's stable on a line without bolting down, but it's not so heavy that repositioning for deep clean is a nightmare. Propane gas powers the whole thing, and the two-year parts and labour warranty gives you peace of mind that parts are available and support is a phone call away.
