Avantco FFDS-1 Freestanding Infrared French Fry Warmer / Dump Station - 1000W, 120V, is working great so far! It had a little assembly required, but was very easy to put together and seems sturdy now. It came with a 2" deep base pan, I liked that I didn't have to purchase that separately!

This gets more use as a dump station than a warmer in my kitchen. It holds a huge amount of fries at once and will easily hold the contents of a 17" fryer basket. The longest our fries are held after coming out of the fryer is no more than 3-4 minutes. The warmer keeps the fries hot until served. A solid piece of equipment for your kitchen. Overall, I would purchase this again if needed. I use

These fry warmers work great! They keep the flies nice and hot. You can also use them for other things as well if you choose to. They do exactly what they say

Food warming makes it nice to not waste food. I can now prolong the life of my fries for a bit longer. Increasing hold times are important for food waste.

I bought this to help with keeping my take out orders warm and French fries. It takes a little time to warm up and really didn't stand up to my demands.

This infrared French fry warmer/dump station works great. It keeps the fries really warm without putting out a lot of unnecessary heat. A much needed item in a hot kitchen.

We have been using this for well over two years to keep the fries hot. Never had an issue. No bulbs to burn out. Easy to put together. Definitely prefer this to the inexpensive heat lamps with bulbs.

Avantco is the most popular brand and very quality product. I would recommend to everyone. Thank you so much. I am very happy to purchase this product.

What a great value. We added this to our restaurant and it is a huge help keeping things hot so all of the food goes out hot together. Has to be assembled but not hard if you have a drill.

I love this heat lamp. It is narrow enough to sit on a small shelf but large enough to hold lots of food. Heats up fast!

I love this. It gets warm fast and keeps everything at a nice temperature. Some things that you don’t want dried out should be covered. I used it for pretzels, popcorn and breakfast. I thought it was going be small but it’s a perfect size for my house.

We make our own spiral cut fries and this warmer insures that they are always hot and crisp. cant go wrong with one of these

Great product. Works great for keeping our fries and things warm while draining some access oil when taking them from the deep fryer. Works well like we imagined.

I’ve had this for about a year now, and it does the job great for when you get busy and need to hold some tots/fries, etc. Perfect for a medium volume eatery like ours.

This warmer does a great job holding my fried products for a few minutes at a time. It throws some pretty good heat, and it has a separate on-off switch for the heat lamp and the light

This unit is miles above any bulb unit you'll ever own. We had one of the twin bulbs, and although they are good, they don't last as long or put out the same amount of heat.

Great fry warmer for the price. Keeps some of our fried items warm and crisp. I would say it keeps food crispy for about 10-15 minutes before needing attention.

Second one we have purchased. They need to make it more accessible to replace elements when they burn out.
