These units can be built into a counter or cabinet or will be mobile as a freestanding unit. Whether built-in or freestanding, warming drawers generally come in one-, two-, and three-drawer models. Many manufacturers also now offer narrow or slim-line versions of their warmers that can fit in tighter spaces. heavy-duty drawer slides with rollers; touch-screen controls may come optional.
