Waring WT90 400-Watt Stainless-Steel Warming Tray

 (5 customer reviews)

This hot plate is great, works just as described.
And Waring's service was great. Our hot plate broke at 11.5 months (just before warranty expiry), we mailed it back, and they sent us a brand new one.

I bought a Waring Pro warming tray for my mother-in-law for Christmas and within an hour it was set up and warming our Christmas dinner. A great item for people who like to entertain.

This is an absolutely fantastic warming tray. It is very attractive and is large enough to hold several items. It is a perfect pseudo-blech: the tray can be kept on continuously for several days with no problems. There are no temperature indicators on the knob, but I've been keeping it turned about 1/4 inch from the off position. At that position, a half-size tray from a cold refrigerator is toasty warm in 2.5-3 hours. If you leave your tray/pan on there for long enough, the tray will actually braise the food. Awesome, right? Keep in mind that at least at the setting I was using it at, this tray might boil water if you leave it on there for long enough, but don't count on it. It might do that at a higher setting, but I didn't test it.
