  • Pros: The build quality is superb; it maintains perfect oven circulation.
  • Cons: It’s specifically for 2/3GN Rational ovens, so no universal fit.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Bistro in Tenby was struggling with inconsistent results from their ageing combi oven shelves, which had started to warp. They decided to replace all their old grids with genuine Rational parts to restore their oven's original performance.

"We were getting frustrating hot spots, especially with our fish dishes. Swapping to the new Rational grids immediately sorted it. The airflow is clearly better, and  everything now cooks evenly, no matter where it's placed in the oven. It's tightened up our service times massively."

Michael Edwards – Head Chef

The bistro reported a significant reduction in food waste and  achieved more consistent cooking across their entire menu.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure your combi oven is switched off and  completely cool before handling internal parts.
  • Confirm the grid is the correct 2/3GN size for your specific oven model.
  • Simply slide the grid firmly onto the shelf runners inside the oven chamber.
  • Give it a gentle wiggle to ensure it is seated correctly and  securely.

Keeping It Going

  • Clean the grid after every use to prevent food build-up, which can affect airflow.
  • Use non-abrasive cloths and  approved commercial kitchen detergents.
  • For stubborn residue, soak in warm, soapy water before scrubbing gently.
  • Periodically inspect the grid for any signs of damage or warping and  replace if necessary.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Combi Oven Accessories

Feeling a bit lost in the world of Gastronorm trays and  grids? Here are a few pointers to make sure you get the right kit for your kitchen.

Check Compatibility First

Always double-check your oven's make, model, and  required GN size. A 2/3GN grid won't fit a 1/1GN oven, so measure twice, buy once!

Genuine vs. Third-Party

Genuine parts like this Rational grid are designed for optimal performance with your specific machine, guaranteeing better results and  a longer lifespan.

Material Matters

Stainless steel is the industry standard for a reason. It's durable, hygienic, easy to clean, and  can handle the extreme temperatures of a combi oven.

Know Your GN Sizing

Gastronorm (GN) is a standard European sizing system. 2/3GN measures 354 x 325mm, making it a versatile mid-size option.

Stock Up on Spares

Having a spare grid or two on hand is a smart move. It prevents service grinding to a halt if one gets damaged or is in the wash during a busy period.

Why a Genuine Rational Grid is Key to Perfect Airflow

Ever wondered why a simple metal grid can make such a difference? Think of your Rational combi oven like a high-performance F1 car – every single part is engineered to work in perfect harmony. The 'iCombi' cooking system relies on precise, intelligent airflow to cook food perfectly. This genuine Rational 2/3GN grid isn't just a rack to hold food; its spacing, thickness, and  material are all specifically designed to allow that clever airflow to circulate without obstruction. Using a non-genuine part is like putting budget tyres on that F1 car – it might fit, but you'll never get the performance it was built for. This grid ensures you get the flawless, even cooking results you paid for when you invested in a Rational oven.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurants & Bistros: Essential for replacing worn grids to maintain cooking consistency on your main service line.
