Premium Design
The Junior Sous has been designed to fit the universally recognised, commercially used Gastronorm trays in the 1/2 size, however by providing versatility on the rails, a wide variety of trays and platters work seamlessly. (See dimensions included.)
Every aspect of this product - from the seal of the door, the modular design, the amount of insulation, the customised hinge, the ports for a future accessories range - has been meticulously thought through, designed and rigorously tested. We engaged highly skilled product designers from the outset, clear in our vision - this product did not exist. It is purpose-built for home chefs. We did not merely customise an off-the-shelf version - we put in the work and took our vision from zero to hero. Just like a good Sous Chef.

How long will the box keep food hot / cold?
The Junior Sous can maintain temperatures for up to 4 hours plus. The exact time however, will depend on how much food you put in the box. Larger cuts of meat and more dense food - picture large pieces of slow-cooked roasts, curries, bakes, lasagnes - will keep very hot for 3-4 hours. The more space in the box, the quicker the temperature will drop - however even for smaller meals, expect it to hold nicely for an hour or two. If wanting to maintain food at a cold temperature, with the use some ice bricks, the food will stay fresh for 2-4 hours. Again, this depends on the amount of food and how full the box is - salads, cheese and cold cuts, fruit, desserts will stay fresh for hours.
How is this different from a regular cooler or esky?
Unlike traditional coolers that open at the top, the Junior Sous is purpose-built for food and offers front-loading access, integrated rails to keep trays and platters secure and professional-grade all-round insulation designed specifically for temperature control, not just ice. The modular, nesting design also allows for securely stacking multiple boxes on top, and also offers an instant prep or serving station on top.
Do you need to plug it into electricity to get it hot inside? How does it stay hot inside?
There is no electricity required. Our boxes are fully insulated so once hot food goes in the insulation will help retain the heat. The portion size of your food will play a factor into how long it will stay hot for. You can also pre-heat the box to further support the temperature control.
