Merrychef E3XE

The Merrychef can cook foods up to 12–15 times faster than a traditional oven thanks to its combination of convection, microwave and impingement technologies. That means dishes that might take 45–60 minutes in a standard oven can often be completed in just a few minutes. This speed helps reduce waiting times, improve throughput and allows kitchens to handle high volumes without compromising quality.

No — one of the key advantages of the Merrychef is its vent-free design. It incorporates a catalytic converter and internal grease/odour filter, which significantly reduces grease build-up and odours. As a result, you typically do not need to install expensive overhead extraction — making the unit ideal for compact kitchens, service counters or retrofit installations.

The oven is designed for simplicity and ease of use. Its easyTouch® icon-driven touchscreen interface makes it intuitive even for staff with minimal training. Menus are programmable and stored on a USB — you can preload up to 1,024 cooking programmes. This reduces human error, ensures consistency across shifts and makes it quicker to bring new staff up to speed.

Yes — the Merrychef is ideal for high-volume environments such as cafés, quick-service restaurants, convenience stores or hotel grab-and-go counters. Its rapid cooking speed, compact footprint, high output potential (especially if stackable), and vent-free operation make it well suited to kitchens where space, speed and consistency are critical.
