Comparing the Selected Warming Trays
The following table compares the features of the selected warming trays:
Tables Notes 1 - 4 Explained:
Note 1:
Broil King NWT-40S has two distinct thermostat controls, one for each end of the tray.
Toastess TWT-40 does not have a thermostat. Its temperature is automatically controlled. It needs to be plugged until the ready light goes on (about 8 minutes), then unplugged and set in a table or buffet. It maintains the heat for 60 minutes. You can also keep it plugged in for extended warming, in which case it will cycle on and off to maintain a temperature set by the manufacturer. Note also that Toastess also makes a sligthly smaller warmin tray, the Toastess TWT-30 which comes with similar features to Toastess TWT-40. Both Toastess units are offered in the Amazon section below.
Note 2:
- Pro BFS50B and Broil King NWT-40S warming trays are equipped with a thermostat that can be used to control the temperature.
- Toastess TWT-40 does not have a thermostat and the temperature is automatically brought to the level set by the manufacturer. Note that though the temperature reached is not specified, the unit heats up to a pretty high temperature, and when unplugged, stays "warm" for about 60 minutes.
Note 3:
After being plugged in for 8 minutes, Toastess TWT-40 can be unplugged and brought to table.
The warm temperature will be kept for 60 minutes.
Note 4:

So, which warming tray to get?
As you can see from the above comparison table, Broil King NWT-40S and Toastess TWT-40 present some differences:
- Broil King tray is larger.
- Broil King tray comes with a 2-year warranty as opposed to the 1-year warranty offered by Toastess.
Even though the Broil King unit is more expensive, if you will be using your warming tray often and specially for receptions, a larger size unit with a longer lasting warranty would be preferable. Otherwise, you would be just as happy with the Toastess warmer tray.
Now, if you need a warming tray that you’ll be able to bring to table for serving while keeping the food warm, then you should pick the Toastess TWT-40. Although it can also be used in a plugged mode on the kitchen counter, the main advantage of this units is that it can be brought to the dinner table or any where else you may want. It takes just 8 minutes to warm up when plugged, and it can stay warm up to 60 minutes when unplugged and cordless. When plugged, there is no danger of overheating as it has automatic temperature control. It is also suitable to be brought to the dinner table as it looks very attractive.
