Progressive CTR-D5 Electric Cafeteria Serving Line — 4-Well, Tray Slide

This is a large-format stainless steel commercial serving system by Progressive Metal Equipment, Inc. of Philadelphia, PA, Model CTR-D5. The dry electric hot food section is rated at 4,000 watts, 220V single phase, with five independent rotary temperature controls spanning 100–300°F mounted on the front fascia — allowing different items to be held at different temperatures simultaneously. Full-length sliding-glass sneeze guards run above the service counter, and a stainless tray slide rail is mounted below on the patron-facing side. Open under-counter storage bays with steel-framed shelving span the full length of the unit. The embossed Progressive nameplate badge with period mascot emblem appears on the serving deck apron. At over 17 feet long, this unit is sized for high-volume feeding operations including cafeterias, buffet restaurants, catering venues, event facilities, healthcare dining, and large-scale community feeding programs.

The lot also includes a stainless L-shaped soiled dish return table fitted with a single-basin drop-in sink, deck-mount faucet, overhead landing shelf, and an under-counter garbage disposal unit — completing a full cafeteria service loop in a single purchase.

CONDITION

Good. Removed from a working environment; all five pan wells, lids, and control knobs are intact with no noted structural issues. Surface wear and light scuffing consistent with commercial use appear across the serving deck and front panels, and the secondary nameplate label on the apron shows heavy paint loss with adhesive residue. Electrical components appear sound but should be inspected prior to reinstallation.
