Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @wendymclean1956. It's wonderful to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about chafers.
Both the SOGA Double Tray Stainless Steel Chafing Dish and the Costway 2x Chafing Dishes offer excellent solutions for keeping food warm and presentable at events, but their features cater to slightly different needs. Choosing the right one depends on your specific requirements for capacity, design, and functionality.
The SOGA Double Tray Chafing Dish, priced at $179.90, is designed for durability and versatility, making it ideal for professional catering, buffets, and events like weddings or hotel brunches. It features two 4.5L food pans, allowing you to serve two dishes simultaneously while maintaining even heat distribution. The stackable design and dishwasher-safe components make it convenient for transport, storage, and cleaning. Its high-quality stainless steel construction, NSF certification, and mirror finish ensure both a sleek appearance and long-lasting use. The beveled legs and upright lid-holding capability enhance stability and ease of serving, while the dual fuel burners keep food warm for extended periods. This option is particularly suited for those who prioritise presentation and need a professional-grade chafer.
On the other hand, the Costway 2x Chafing Dishes, priced at $119.95, provide an economical option with a large 9L capacity divided into the same 4.5L compartments. These dishes are made from stainless steel, ensuring good heat resistance and durability. With a double-plate design and removable components, they’re easy to use, store, and clean. Each chafer comes with two fuel holders for consistent heating, making them well-suited for banquets, birthdays, and parties. The external handles add convenience for transport, and the set includes two chafing dishes, offering flexibility for serving multiple dishes at once.
In summary, if you’re looking for a more versatile, professional-grade option with superior durability and design, the SOGA chafing dish is an excellent choice. I you'd prefer a budget-friendly solution with high capacity and straightforward functionality, the Costway chafing dishes are a practical alternative.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
