Electric Broilers or Gas Range? 4 Commercial Cooking Equipment Picks From $94.85

Compare two countertop electric steak grills, a wall-mounted cheese melter broiler, and a 2-burner gas range by fuel type, mounting style, and listed price for a commercial kitchen.

Last updated Aug 17, 2026

Quick take

Commercial cooking equipment doesn't follow a single setup, so your first decision is fuel and footprint: electric countertop broiler, wall-mounted electric broiler, or open-flame gas. The two electric steak grills share a stainless steel cooking surface and are aimed at barbecue restaurants, western restaurants, snack stalls, and home kitchens grilling steaks, lamb chops, chicken, seafood, vegetables, and pizza. The cheese melter is an electric wall-mount unit with a 12-hour maximum single working time for longer service periods. The gas range is for kitchens that can connect to a fuel source and want direct-flame pan heating.

Product notes

Electric Steak Grill 1700W Kitchen Countertop Steak Broiler

Electric Steak Grill 1700W Kitchen Countertop Steak Broiler Counter Steak Oven

Choose this unit if you want the simplest countertop electric broiler and the lowest listed price in this set. The stainless steel cooking surface pairs with a 0-10 minute timer, and the package includes a grill, tray, and handle. Its overall size of 25.8 x 33.3 x 36.8 cm makes it a compact fit for a dedicated station. Keep in mind the 10-minute timer means you will need to reset it for longer broiling sessions, and the heat source is electric rather than open flame.

This mid-priced option takes the same stainless steel electric grill idea and puts it into a tiered countertop oven configuration. It is positioned for barbecue restaurants, western restaurants, snack stalls, and home use with the same kind of foods as the smaller broiler. Pick it when the tiered form factor and built-in timer fit your workflow better than a single compact unit. The trade-off is that the electric heat story stays the same, so if you wanted a bigger heating step, the gas model is the one that changes the fuel type.

Go this route when you want an electric broiler for melting cheese, finishing BBQ-style plates, or toasting toppings without putting another unit on the counter. The 1500W unit lists a 50-300°C temperature range, four adjustable grill positions, and a maximum single working time of 12 hours. The package includes the oil tray, grill, clip, gloves, handles, and power cord. Plan around its wall-mount installation type and its 61 x 30 x 28 cm body, which takes up more vertical presence than the compact steak broilers.

Choose this gas range when you want open-flame cooking in a countertop footprint. The unit has a 3/4 NPT connector and comes factory-set for natural gas; for propane, you replace the accessories from the included pack yourself. It also has a stainless steel panel, removable drip tray and burners, and no-hole installation. The limitation is practical: at 58.86 lbs net weight, it is the heaviest and most substantial piece here, and you will need a compatible gas supply before it can be used.
