POWER OF ATTORNEY

Know all by these presents, that, for good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of
which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby constitutes and appoints each of Haresh Shah,
Joel H. Horn and Priya A. Galante, and any of their substitutes, signing singly, the undersigned's true and
lawful attorney in fact to:

(1)    execute for and on behalf of the undersigned (in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder (the "Exchange Act")), in the undersigned's
capacity as an officer and/or director of Welbilt, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), any and
all Forms 3, 4 and/or 5, and any amendments thereto, that are necessary or advisable for the
undersigned to file under Section 16(a) (collectively, "Documents").

(2)    do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned that may be necessary or
desirable to complete and execute any such Documents and timely file such Documents with the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or similar authority; and

(3)    take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the foregoing which, in the
opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in the best interest of, or legally required by, the
undersigned, it being understood that the documents executed by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the
undersigned pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such attorney-in-fact's discretion.

The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney in fact full power and authority to do and perform
any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite, necessary or proper to be done in the exercise of any
of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the undersigned might or
could do if personally present, with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and
confirming all that each such attorney in fact (or such attorney in fact's substitute or substitutes) shall
lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers herein
granted.  The undersigned acknowledges that each attorney in fact, in serving in such capacity at the
request of the undersigned, is not assuming, nor is such attorney in fact's substitute or substitutes or the
Company assuming, any of the undersigned's responsibilities to comply with the Exchange Act.

The undersigned agrees that such attorney-in-fact may rely entirely on information furnished orally or in
writing by the undersigned to such attorney-in-fact. The undersigned also agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company and such attorney-in-fact against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in these respects) that arise out of or are based on any untrue statement or omission of
necessary facts in the information provided by the undersigned to such attorney-in-fact for purposes of
executing, acknowledging, delivering and filing Documents and agrees to reimburse the Company and
such attorney-in-fact for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action.

This Power of Attorney revokes any power of attorney previously executed by the undersigned with
respect to the foregoing subject matter.  This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until
the undersigned is no longer required to file Documents with respect to the undersigned's holdings of
and transactions in securities issued by the Company, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a
signed writing delivered to each of the foregoing attorneys-in-fact.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to be executed as of this 7th
day of November 2017.
