Cambro's where and what to buy

Postby RobinC » 30 May 2012, 08:11

As the title says really

Been thinking of buying one as think it will prove useful when cooking for larger groups. Not totally sure what I need and where is a good place to source from?

Any pointers appreciated

Its always worth keeping an eye on ebay for them, you can sometimes find a decent one on there.

Ed was using a Rubbermaid one this weekend that was pretty much the same as a Cambro. It looked very good and there's a couple on fleabag at the moment.

Thanks

Though I'm not entirely sure I want the words rubbermaid appearing in my browsing history....

The rubbermaid unit i use is the Catermax 100 which is the equivilant to the Cambro. The rubbermaid units are bigger than the cambro's and you don't have any gaskets which need replacing like the Cambro's.

I paid about £60 for mine but it doesn't have any wheels so expect to pay a bit more if you want wheels.
