Bach West Food Equipment Group has been supporting retailers and restaurateurs since 1966. Sales of premium food equipment combined with reliable customer service are the core elements that make up our business model.
Reading a spec sheet only tells you so much. Our Test Kitchen Demonstrations put real equipment in your hands — hands-on trials before you buy, live product demonstrations, and full training sessions — all in a dedicated test kitchen built for exactly this. Whether you're evaluating a new purchase or training your team on equipment you already own, you'll leave knowing exactly how it performs.
A demonstration takes some coordination — real equipment, real expertise, and a dedicated space don't come together overnight. Here's what to expect from request to demo day.
Tell us what equipment you're evaluating or what training you need — individually or as a group. Demonstrations are available across our full brand lineup.
Our team and chef (with a manufacturer rep when needed) put together a demo built around your goals.
Requests need at least 2 weeks' lead time to prepare the kitchen and coordinate the right people.
Sessions run half-day to full-day, hands-on the whole way through.
Every demonstration takes place in our dedicated test kitchen at the Bach West distribution facility — a space retrofitted to fit a wide range of equipment types, with room to view, interact with, and run real product. Our team and chef handle all setup and structure, so you can focus on the equipment, not the logistics.
Get hands-on with real equipment before committing to a purchase.
Our chef and manufacturer reps bring direct product expertise to every demonstration.
Whether it's just you or your whole team, sessions flex to fit.
Already own the equipment? We'll help your team get the most out of it.
Connect with our team to see how Bach West Distributors can simplfy sourcing, servicing, testing, and answering all your equipment questions with one simple conversation. We focus on what matters most — local support, ongoing relationships, and customer satisfaction to install confidence in your buying process.
It was my pleasure to help open the new test kitchen at Bach West. The space is well equipped which provides an intimate setting to showcase our equipment to customers and gather their feedback. This opens up another opportunity for me to partner with this wonderful team and I look forward to many future visits. Congratulations BW
The Bach West Test Kitchen fills a much-needed gap in the Pacific NW for testing and demonstrating the top brands of commercial cooking equipment on the market. It's a beautifully-designed and executed space that enables customers and factory reps to quickly and conveniently get immediate feedback, and inspire creative new solutions and culinary applications as well. It's a game-changer for me as a Vulcan/ITW chef based in the Pac NW!
