Durability is a hallmark of the Southbend SB1012. The range is constructed from heavy-duty stainless steel, which not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also ensures resistance to wear and tear in a busy kitchen environment. The removable ovens and easy-access components facilitate straightforward cleaning and maintenance, ensuring the equipment remains in peak condition even after extensive use.
