Superb Condition – Nemco 6100A – Commercial 7 Qt. Round Countertop Food Warmer – Adjustable Thermostatic Control – 120V, 550W – NSF & ETL Listed – New/Open Box!

🔹 Condition

New / Open Box – Superb Condition – Inspected & Ready for Commercial Use

This Nemco commercial countertop warmer is offered in new/open-box condition. The stainless steel exterior, round heating well, adjustable control knob, power cord, and major operating components appear clean and complete, with only light fingerprints or minor handling marks from warehouse storage and inspection.

Blue protective tape is visible around the power cord in the supplied photograph. The unit does not appear to include a removable food inset, lid, or ladle in the photos. Those accessories should not be promised unless they are physically confirmed before sale.

The warmer should be cleaned, inspected, and tested before being placed into commercial foodservice operation.

🔹 Description

The Nemco 6100A is a compact commercial countertop food warmer designed to maintain soups, sauces, gravies, chili, cheese, dessert toppings, and other prepared foods at safe serving temperatures.

Its round stainless steel well accepts a compatible 7-quart inset, while an adjustable thermostatic control allows the operator to select the appropriate holding level for different products. The standard 6100A is the warmer-only model; Nemco sells the 6100A-ICL configuration separately with an inset, cover, and ladle.

A coiled tubular heating element transfers heat through an aluminum heat-dissipating plate, helping spread heat evenly around the well and reduce isolated hot spots. The unit’s stainless steel construction is designed for repeated commercial use and simple countertop cleaning.

Its compact footprint makes it well suited to restaurants, buffet lines, cafés, concession stands, catering operations, convenience stores, and self-service food stations where counter space is limited.

🔹 Holding Specifications

Capacity: 7 Qt. Number of Wells: 1 Well Shape: Round Operation: Countertop Food Holding Control Type: Adjustable Thermostatic Dial Maximum Published Temperature: Up to Approximately 212°F Heating Method: Electric Conduction Heating Food Inset: Sold Separately Unless Physically Included Installation Type: Portable Countertop

Nemco’s published specifications identify the 6100A as a 7-quart round warmer with adjustable thermostatic control.

🔹 Electrical Specifications

The photographed manufacturer plate confirms:

Voltage: 120V AC Phase: Single Phase Frequency: 60 Hz Power Consumption: 550 Watts Rated Current: 4.6 Amps Power Type: Electric Plug Configuration: NEMA 5-15P Power Cord: Approximately 6 ft.

Nemco’s official model table also lists the 6100A at 120V, 550W, 4.6 amps, 60 Hz, with a NEMA 5-15P plug.

A properly grounded commercial outlet is required. Extension cords should not be used unless expressly approved for the full electrical load.

🔹 Dimensions

Width / Diameter: Approximately 10 in Height: Approximately 9 5/8–9 3/4 in Approximate Weight: 11 lb.

Nemco’s current official listing gives a 10-inch width and 9 5/8-inch height, while some dealer listings measure the upper rim at approximately 11 7/8 inches. The difference likely reflects measuring the body versus the widest top flange.

The 6100A-ICL package includes:

• 7-quart inset
• Cover

Nemco lists these as separate model configurations.

The supplied photos show the warmer well without a food inset, cover, or ladle. Therefore, the final listing should state that these accessories are not included unless separately confirmed.

🔹 Wet or Dry Operation

Commercial round warmers of this style may be operated using water around the inset or according to approved dry-operation instructions, depending on the food and manufacturer guidance.

For best performance:

• Never allow electrical components to become wet
• Use only a correctly sized inset
• Monitor food temperature regularly
• Do not place food directly into the heating well
• Keep the control area dry
• Avoid operating the unit empty at high heat for extended periods

The food product belongs in a removable inset, not directly in the warmer body.

• Empty any remaining water after cooling
• Wipe the interior dry
• Clean spills from the rim and exterior
