The King KH120 really punches above its weight. It’s a solid, no-nonsense countertop unit that nails the fundamentals: consistent heat and  fantastic presentation. The visibility from the curved glass is a huge plus for driving sales, and  the inclusion of a humidity pan at this price point is a thoughtful touch for any business selling pastries or pies. It’s a brilliant all-rounder for small to medium-sized sites.

  • Pros: Excellent visibility and  bright lighting really make products pop and  drive impulse sales.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Cornish Crust, a popular bakery in Truro, needed to upgrade their old, unreliable food warmer to better handle their busy lunch trade and  reduce food wastage from items drying out.

"The King KH120 has been a brilliant bit of kit. Our pies and  pasties look fantastic under the LED lights, and  the humidity pan actually works – they stay fresh for so much longer. Customers have definitely noticed the difference in quality."

David Williams – Owner, The Cornish Crust

After installation, the bakery reported a 30% increase in savoury pastry sales and  a significant reduction in end-of-day food waste.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the unit is placed on a stable, level countertop with adequate ventilation around the back and  sides.
  • Before first use, wipe down all interior and  exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and  food-safe sanitiser.
  • Position the two shelves to best suit the products you plan to display.
  • Simply plug the standard 13A plug into a suitable socket – no special wiring needed!

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the glass and  stainless steel daily with a damp cloth to remove fingerprints and  food residue.
  • Empty, clean, and  refill the water pan daily to ensure optimal humidity and  hygiene.
  • Remove shelves periodically for a thorough clean in a sink with warm, soapy water.
  • Always switch off and  unplug the unit before performing any cleaning tasks.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Heated Display Cabinet

Not sure which heated display is the perfect match for your business? Here are a few key things to consider to make sure you get it right.

Capacity vs. Counter Space

Think about how much you need to display during your busiest period. A larger unit like this 120Ltr model is great for volume, but make sure you've measured your counter space first!

Access & Service

How will you and  your staff access the unit? Rear sliding doors, like on the KH120, are ideal for staff-service, keeping the customer side clear and  safe.

Lighting Matters

Good lighting sells food. An LED heated food showcase makes products look more appealing and  professional. It’s a small feature that makes a huge difference to sales.

Construction and  Cleaning

Look for stainless steel and  removable parts. The easier a unit is to clean, the more likely it is to be kept hygienic, which is vital for any food business.

Temperature & Control

Check the temperature range suits the food you're selling. An adjustable thermostat is a must-have for holding different items at the correct, safe temperature.

How a Simple Water Pan Keeps Your Food Perfectly Moist

Ever wondered how to keep pastries from turning into biscuits after an hour in a warmer? The secret is the removable water pan in the base of this unit. It’s not just for catching crumbs! By filling this small tray with water, the cabinet's heat gently evaporates it, creating a humid environment inside. Think of it like a mini-sauna for your food. This moisture in the air prevents products like pies, pasties, and  sausage rolls from drying out, keeping them succulent and  fresh for much longer, which means less waste and  happier customers.

Who Should Buy This?

    Perfect for displaying croissants, paninis, and  sausage rolls on the countertop to catch the morning rush.
