The Le Griddle Wee Electric Griddle brings the benefits of healthy, French-style griddle cooking to built-in or countertop installations, no gas required, just as efficient with 1,800 watts and 120V power. Featuring a professional-style 304 stainless steel griddle surface and components, the Wee Electric Griddle offers excellent heat distribution thanks to a 1/2 in. thick enameled cast iron sub-plate below the cooking surface. A powerful 1,800-watt heating element provides even heat across the entire 1/8 in. thick stainless steel cooking surface, with perfect cooking every time for up to 12 people. Cleanup is easy with the removable griddle plate and grease collection tray, designed to capture oil and fat for simple disposal. Great for indoor or outdoor use with the proper clearance to combustibles, this griddle requires a dedicated 15 amp, 120V grounded electrical circuit to operate properly, and it's backed by a lifetime warranty on the plate and body.

How The Le Griddle Wee Electric Griddle Compares To Other Outdoor Cooking Surface Options

Homeowners evaluating how to add a flat-top cooking surface to their outdoor kitchen usually face this question: should I go with a portable countertop electric griddle, choose this built-in Le Griddle Wee Electric for a permanent, professional-grade setup, or install a full-size gas-fired flat top griddle for higher-volume cooking.

Here's the honest comparison:

Best Suited For Occasional indoor or patio griddle cooking Compact outdoor kitchens needing a permanent, professional-grade electric griddle without a gas line Larger outdoor kitchens with gas service and higher cooking volume needs

Why The Le Griddle Wee Electric Griddle Is Worth The Investment
