Frequently asked questions

What outlet does the Atosa MGF8451GR need?

It needs a standard 115V, 60 Hz, single-phase outlet that accepts a NEMA 5-15P plug, and it draws 2.3 A. Atosa's warranty does not cover damage from extension cords, low voltage or voltage drops, so plug it directly into a properly wired receptacle.

Is the MGF8451GR a refrigerator or a freezer, and what temperature does it hold?

It is a refrigerator. It holds 35°F to 38°F. For frozen storage, Atosa sells separate chef base freezer models.

How much does it hold?

It holds 8.4 cu. ft. across two drawers and comes with six 12" x 20" stainless steel pans, 6" deep.

Will it fit through a standard doorway?

Yes, if you move it depth-first. At 33" deep it clears a 36" doorway, and at 26-3/5" high it is far below an 80" door opening. The 52" width means it cannot go through width-first.

Can I put cooking equipment on top?

Yes. The one-piece, heavy-duty reinforced stainless steel top is built to support countertop cooking equipment such as griddles and charbroilers.

What certifications does it have?

It is cETLus listed for electrical safety in the US and Canada and ETL-Sanitation listed for food-zone sanitation, which health inspectors look for in commercial kitchens. Atosa also lists it as ENERGY STAR.

What warranty comes with it?

Atosa covers parts and labor for 3 years and the sealed compressor for 5 years in total. The extra compressor years cover only the sealed compressor, not the cabinet, finish, temperature control, refrigerant, metering device, fan assembly or other electrical parts. Claims go directly to Atosa and need the model number, serial number, proof of purchase and installation date.

How does it compare with other Atosa chef bases?

The MGF8450GR is 48-2/5" wide with 7.7 cu. ft., and the MGF8448GR is 35-5/8" wide with 4.7 cu. ft. The MGF8452GR has the same 8.4 cu. ft. two-drawer cabinet with an extended top, 60-1/2" wide. The MGF8453GR (72-1/2") and MGF8454GR (76", extended top) each have four drawers and 12.1 cu. ft.

Does it ship free, and how is it delivered?

Yes, this model ships free. It ships on a pallet by freight truck. A lift gate fee applies to large items like this one if you don't have a loading dock and is calculated at checkout.
