Item #: 177HPI1812
Designed to keep all your freshly cooked food items hot until they're ready to serve, this Avantco HPI-1812 undercounter half size insulated heated holding/proofing cabinet helps ensure your restaurant, diner, or bakery is always prepared for high volume meal periods. Boasting nine adjustable settings and a heat mode that can reach 185 degrees Fahrenheit, this cabinet is perfect for storing a wide variety of ready-to-serve dishes. Or, operators can use the unit's integrated proofing mode for operation at a lower temperature (up to 115 degrees Fahrenheit) in order to proof bread before it's ready to bake. Humidity is provided by moisture in the water tray of the bottom of the unit, and adjustable humidity settings from 30% to 100% allow for a completely customized proofing experience. Thanks to an insulated design that locks in your holding temperature, this unit boasts up to 35% energy savings versus non-insulated units.
A total of 11 pan slides accept full size 18" x 26" sheet pans, while a Lexan clear door provides outstanding impact and heat-resistance as well as allowing for easy monitoring of the contents inside. For valuable temperature protection, the door is paired with both magnets and a tight-fitting gasket to ensure the warm air inside does not escape. You can also reverse the door hinges based on your needs. An easy-to-read thermometer for effortless temperature monitoring and a pair of dials is located on the unit's bottom control drawer that can also be removed for quick cleaning. Thanks to four 5" poly casters, this cabinet can be filled and moved from your prep location to the serving area with incredible ease. Other features include integrated corner bumpers that protect nearby walls and equipment during transport. The Avantco HPI-1812 half size cabinet requires a 120V electrical connection.

Absolutely love my proofer. It's made my job at my bakery so much easier. I can produce much more buns without the risk of my dough drying out.
Compact proofer that I use for my yeast breads in the bakery. Easy to use and easy to clean. Small size, but perfect for a shop that doesn't produce huge amounts of breads on a daily basis.
I LOVE THIS PROOFER/HEATER.!! I USE IT FOR MAKING BREAD AND KEEPING FOODS WARM DURING EVENTS. I DEFINATELY WILL PURCHASING ANOTHER ONE IN THE FUTURE
Bought this as my first proofer in my business, and opted for the cheapest full size proofer i could find, but was not disappointed. Its not insulated, but it still maintains its temperature well in my garage at freezing temps. No complaints yet at all.
Purchased this holding to hold our food item in between serving to the require temperature cook food is to be held. This has an extra humidity control the non insulated warmer does not. I purchased both warmer and this one does a better job at holding the temperature that it's set for; however, you have to keep watch on the temperature setting at the bottom and adjust occasionally temperature tend to rise and drop depending on the food you put it it along with how often it's open.
I bought this cabinet originally for proofing my dough a second rise, but now we use it for keeping our freshly cooked waffles warm for rush times and busy mornings. I can get it up to about 185 in 30-40 minutes and it will hold about that heat all day long. It will keep warm without further cooking our waffles. I can keep waffles warm and tasty in there for at least two hours, if not longer. I just haven't tried any longer yet. The controls are easy to use, the cabinet cleans inside and outside easily and if you want to wheel it around, it moves without problem. It is very light and not heavy at all. I can touch the outside on full heat without problem too. This site sells full size baking pans (18x26) and wire racks (16x24) that fit the slots on this cabinet perfectly. You can also put half size pans they sell (13x18) in sideways. I loved the price and I'm glad I bought this cabinet. It has helped us through many busy shifts. I couldn't run a shop without it. We say buy it! Jeff
So this is not the top of the line proofer. But I will say that we use it daily for proofing bread products first, then holding product for the steam tables during service. I have owned one that was twice the price but this one does a great job.
This unit is a really good deal versus the typical name brands. The construction quality and operation have absolutely no noticeable difference. We plan on purchasing more of these in the future.
Love this hot hot box! Small compact and not hot to the touch great for our mobile business. If your looking to keep product warm but cant do a full size.....here ya go!
I love how hot my food stays in here. We do lots of catering and we place all our trays in here as we complete prep and I feel like it’s hotter than when I put them in! Def a KEEPER. It has wheels and make it easy to clean underneath it!
This full size insulatated heated holding proofing cabinet is a great investment in any business are food truck. I purchased this one for my food truck. It keeps my extra food hot as I use what's on the steam table on the food truck.
This proofer is a good size it holds temperature well as well as humidity. It can also be very Mobile on these wheels ours is mounted in a food truck so it doesn't move anywhere. 110v makes it nice you could plug it in pretty much anywhere.
We purchased this warming cabinet as an addition to our kitchen at the Post. Perfect size, fits in our cramped space perfectly. We use mainly for keeping large quantities of cooked food at proper temp prior to serving. Has saved us several times during large Veterans events. Thermostat has worked very well & easy to see at base of unit. Very handy to have wheels, unit rolls easily. Good unit & price was within our budget.
Could be a nicer product if the runners were wide enough to hold the pans. Some of the runners are but not all. Pan falls through on some then they get jammed. Causes a big mess when things on the pan spills into the cabinet. The design of this cabinet is not very well made. The runners have sharp corners so when placing pans into the cabinet, they will cut your hands up. This price for a heating cabinet is money not well spent for an inferior product.
Haven't really used it yet. Just got it installed into my food truck but seems to fit really well
Keeps food hot all day long and ready to serve
BUY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY! This product is great... when it works...So far we have had to replace the power module twice within a year. So thankful we got the warranty because trends tell me we'll be needing it in the future. The product functions as promised, but for something that costs this much I would have expected it to last longer.
This is an absolutely wonderful product. As a restaurant owner I am always looking for ways to save time and make my items tasty and delicious. I have found this. It is a great product and saves me a lot of time. We love this product.
Very good and good quality . It’s just like what I expected. Very versatile and easy to use and set up
So very excited about this new purchase! It was exactly what we expected and keeps our church family foods warm until our events are ready! Also, Very well packaged in shipping!!!!
Sturdy. It works well, if you do not need a precise working temp.
good product, recommended
we have used this countless times for large orders or for catering orders - has been wonderful
Very happy with
