Item #: 177HDS175
An excellent addition to snack bars, stadiums, vending carts, and concession stands, this Avantco HDS-175 hot dog steamer is a great way to add hot dogs to your menu and boost impulse sales! The unit's spacious design steams and holds up to 175 pre-cooked hot dogs and 40 buns so you are always ready to feed hungry customers. The temperature can be adjusted from 65 - 215 degrees Fahrenheit so that dogs are cooked to perfection and buns are always kept warm and ready to serve.
This hot dog steamer comes with an extra-large 8 qt. water pan for all-day steaming and easy maintenance. Simply fill the pan at the start of the day and set the temperature and humidity to keep your pre-cooked hot dogs warm and juicy! If the water level dips below the minimum, a low water indicator light will come on and an automatic shutoff feature will turn the steamer off to prevent damage. And since it comes with a 3/4" drain valve you can let excess water run off into a sink or other disposal area when you're done using it.
A corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel housing gives the steamer a sleek look with the durability needed for high volume snack stands, while the tempered glass front and back give customers a clear view of your products. Two glass doors offer easy access for loading and unloading, and a side hook gives you a convenient place to keep tongs. This model requires a 120V electrical connection for operation, and it has a 55 1/8" power cord.

I bought this as part of my children's party business. I used it at the office holiday party it was such a huge hit people wanted to rent it. It held the max amount of Nathan's hotdogs cooked evenly. Don't put your bread in too early but I love my investment. Cost reasonable too.
We have been selling steamed hot dogs since the 1970's using Star steamers. 2 years ago we switched over to Avantco steamers. We own 4 of them. This steamer is much more affordable and the replacement parts are very reasonably priced. As long as you follow the instruction and have some knowledge of how a hot dog steamer works this one will work just fine. If you run it on high (175) all day you will burn out the electronics and element. After it heats up just turn it down to 150 and you'll be fine. Putting 100 hot dogs in at a time I would not recommend. The middle ones take for ever to heat up. We use 50 at a time. If your drain plug leaks than you most likely put it on too tight.
this hot dog machine is great for any business hold 200 hot dog and 48 buns i have rented almost very weekend its so easy to clean and use
We rent this machine. Such a great value and price. Not to mention free shipping. We will be buying another over the winter for our business.
This item is the second one that i had purchased. It is of the best quality and very easy to operate and clean. I would highly recommend this product
This hot dog steamer is an A++++ It works amazing and your hot dogs are going to taste great! And you can put a huge amount in at once which is nice
This is the perfect hot dog steamer at this price point! The flexibility with the steam on the bun side to get the perfectly soft buns without getting soggy is great! Perfect for our shop!
We serve coneys in our diner and this warmer/steamer makes all the difference. Before we would keep our hot dogs in water to stay warm and they would turn an awful color. Now hot dogs are steamed perfectly and kept warm inside this cute display. The buns come out so warm and soft as well. This machine helps us make the best coneys around. Thanks
This steamer is fast. From cold to serving in 20 minutes. Easy to disassemble and clean. Thermostat is handy when working with different kinds of buns. Recommend.
We use this at all of our events. Heats up quickly and provides ample amount of food. Easy setup and clean up. Easy setup and storage.
Above expectations, I use this as a part of my small party catering business. Usually for kids parties and this steamer worked like a charm, very easy setup and clean up which is very important to me. And more importantly it kept the hot dogs and buns nice and warm so I did not have to constantly be making more and more to be served hot cause this machine does it for me. May have to upgrade to the bigger steamer soon.
Avantco HDS-200 200 Dog / 48 Bun Hot Dog is truly a great addition, It is fast, effective, compact and just a really great purchase. It is everything you would ever need. Nice warm buns and hot- hot dogs :)
We have used this and like it as far as functionality and ease of use/cleaning. The only thing I wish is that the hotdog side was bigger. We don't really steam the buns except for one at a time because they get mushy really quick.
I already tested it, it worked very well at my son's party, all children love it I recommend it for children's parties or small coffee shops
This baby does the job. Keeps the dogs hot and the buns warm. The bottom buns will always get hard after awhile, so sacrifice a couple to the hot dog gods.
It helps to keep food hot. We bought it to sales slices of pizzas. It have works very well. Also it’s easy to clean. Perfect
We bought this to use for our HOA community events and really loved it. Easy to use, quick set up and break down. Does an awesome job steaming the hot dogs and keeping the buns soft! We love this item and this website and look forward to purchasing more!
Great price and great quality! Customers enjoy this machine weekly and its easy to use and clean. Overall great machine for my party business
This is a great size if you are limited on space. It keeps the buns nice, warm and soft. The hotdogs are ok not as hot as I would like but they will make do.
This hot dog steamer worked great. It maintained the hot dog buns nicely steamed thought out our even as well as the hot dog. Our customers really liked our set up!
This thing is great. Holds plenty of hot dogs and keeps them hot. Buns stay just right. I think the lids could have a little better of a design to stay on. They do seem to fall in easy even with the support bar.
This was one of the the best item I purchase for me business I would get this item if I was you. It keep the hot dogs and buns fresh.
Smaller than some machines, this Aventco machine holds as many hot dogs...or more....than the more expensive machines. Easy to set up and clean, we like the way it saves space. Adjusting the temperature, hot dogs stay fresh for a long time.
Avantco HDS-100 100 Dog / 48 Bun Hot Dog Steamer / Merchandiser - 120V, 1300W is a great choice for steaming hot dogs and bunns.
Worked really good for the hot dogs and sausage, but the buns came out super soggy. Had to wrap them in foil to keep the softness and dryness.
This product was purchased primarily for a food booth at a heavily attended festival. We used it for steaming All Beef Hot Dogs (only) and a few buns, here and there. Overall the product is very functional, but I was disappointed that it didn't appear to hold up under pressure. After using for a while, the unit did not heat up product as quickly or efficiently as it does in the beginning, and I wasn't even loading to capacity of 175 hot dogs. At any given time, we maybe had 50-60 hot dogs steaming at one time, which it would keep them at temp once we got them heated - but getting them to acceptable ranges was a chore from a refrigerated/cold hot dog. Also the units top shelf does not remove from the unit (rack does, but shelf does not) so adding water to the unit and cleaning is a bit challenging. Good, economical product for smaller events where food turnover/throughput is minimal and you have time to get food up to servable temps in between loads.
Our dogs come out perfectly steamed everything! The ability of controlling how much steam comes out on the bun side helps keep waste down by not over steaming and ending up with mushy water logged buns!
Great item. Exactly as described.
Looks to be good quality, smaller than I expected. I’m Sure it will do good and if not I will pass it to the buddy league for their hot dogs .
This is awesome machine for parties. The smell that it make when the dogs and buns are in make the people at the party want a hot dog.
I received this item Today. I had it cleaned up and assembled within 20 minutes. Loaded the water and a few hot dogs and buns. I am extremely pleased with this product and also happy with the ordering process & Delivery from Webstaurant Store. Looking forward to becoming one of your favorite customers.
