The one-touch menu selection automatically provides accurate time, temperature, and gap settings for every product. And as always, it’s built using the high-quality Taylor manufacturing process, ensuring it is constructed to the highest standards and that you get the best and longest-lasting equipment on the market. Taylor Brand also has other very competitive and exclusive models for the Electric and Gas Two-sided Commercial Grill category such as Taylor L811 and Taylor L813.
