And when the sun comes out, it's easily transported outdoors: onto the terrace, balcony, or into the garden. No gas connection is needed, just a simple electrical outlet. It's the ideal appliance for year-round cooking, come rain or shine.

Criteria for choosing your electric griddle wisely
Choosing the right electric griddle is not something to be taken lightly. To fully benefit from its advantages, it's essential to consider several technical and practical elements :
- the coating of the cooking plate and the quality of the chassis
- the heating power
- energy consumption
- the size of the cooking surface
Whether you want to cook indoors or outdoors, for a small meal or to entertain a large group, every detail counts. Without forgetting a decisive element: the budget. Here's an overview of the key points to examine to make the right choice.
The coating : plate and chassis
We have been manufacturing cooking appliances for over 40 years with a genuine expertise in the nautical industry. At ENO, this is why we make the choice to manufacture our griddles with the best outdoor materials.
Our electric griddles have a high-quality marine-grade stainless steel chassis which allows our appliances to be particularly resistant to external elements. ENO electric griddles can easily find their place for installation by the sea, but also indoors on a veranda or in a kitchen.
For the cooking plate of our griddles, we favor enameled cast iron, as it offers excellent thermal inertia, allowing heat to spread and be maintained evenly over the entire cooking surface. Its natural non-stick coating prevents food from sticking, allowing for healthy cooking without adding fat.
Indoor or outdoor use
ENO electric griddles are designed to offer maximum flexibility, allowing for use both indoors and outdoors. Their marine-grade stainless steel chassis ensures exceptional resistance to corrosion, UV rays, and weathering, making them ideal for use in various weather conditions.
Furthermore, their compact and elegant design integrates perfectly into indoor kitchens, offering a practical cooking solution without cluttering the space. IPX4 certification guarantees protection against water splashes, ensuring safe use, whether on a balcony, a terrace, or in a kitchen.
Power and heating capacity
The power of an electric griddle directly influences the heating time and its ability to maintain a constant temperature for even cooking.
ENO electric griddles are powerful and high-performing, reaching cooking temperature in just a few minutes. This allows you to quickly sear food that remains tender. Moreover, thanks to the excellent heat distribution across the plate, you can cook several foods at the same time.
ENO electric griddles offer power ratings ranging between 1.8 kW and 3 kW :
- the ENOSIGN 40 model has a power of 1.8 kW, suitable for meals for 4 to 6 people, while the ENOSIGN 65 offers a power of 3 kW, ideal for cooking for 6 to 8 guests.
- the Initial 50 model has a power of 2.2 kW, ideal for cooking for 4 to 6 people while the INITIAL 65 model offers a power output of 3 kW, ideal for more than 6 people.
This power ensures efficient and even cooking, essential for perfectly searing meats, fish, and vegetables.
The budget
To purchase an ENO electric griddle, expect to pay between €449 and €1869, depending on your choice between a simple electric griddle or one integrated on a cart.
