Bonnet Equator - 20 x 1/1, Electric
About this oven
The Bonnet Equator is a manual-control combi oven from Hobart Bonnet, the French manufacturer whose ovens are found in hotel, school and contract catering kitchens across Europe. It covers steam, convection and combination cooking in one cabinet, operated with clearly labelled dials and switches rather than a touchscreen, so a new starter can run it after a short demonstration.
What you get
- Six cooking modes covering steam, hot air, combination and regeneration, each clearly marked on the control panel
- JetControl steam injection: steam is produced by injecting water directly into the cabinet, so there's no boiler to fill, wait for or maintain
- Automatic humidity in combination mode: the oven sets the moisture level to suit what you're cooking, with no manual humidity setting
- AirControl airflow management for even browning across every shelf, whether the oven is full or half-loaded
- Two-speed fan with an adjustable vent: the lower speed and open vent suit pastry and sugar work, and the lower speed also stops rice and pasta drying out when reheating
- Core temperature probe socket, so you can cook to an internal temperature instead of the clock
- Automatic cool-down without opening the door, for switching quickly from a high-temperature roast to gentler cooking
- Hygienic cabinet with welded, radiused corners and a pressed base that drains cleanly
Honest about what it isn't
The Equator has no touchscreen, no recipe library and no automatic cooking programmes. Cleaning uses a semi-automatic cycle rather than a fully automatic system. In return, it has simple electromechanical controls with far fewer electronics to go wrong, which suits kitchens that want dependable daily cooking without training staff on software.
