I'm looking for a standalone, three-compartment, heated buffet server
identical to that pictured here

but of about half the capacity to use for dinner parties of 6 to 10.
Transparent lids are a big plus.

Just realized that "half the capacity" probably doesn't get the size
down as far as I had intended! A quarter of the size! Governing
factor: dinner party of 6 to 10.

Thanks for the tips, Pink & Crythias. I think what I'm going to have
to do is go to a large kitchen supplies house and actually look at
some of these alternatives in person.

A search for Triple Buffet Servers does give

Which, Strangely enough, is the same cost.

Here's another option:

At $150 cheaper, it might be what you're looking for, even if it is still big-ish.

This is a free comment.

I think your best bet may be a countertop roaster oven with an insert.
Crythias has already given a good link to one of these. Nice price,
and the device is versatile. You can bake just about anything in these
little ovens.

Here's Rival's link to their line of roaster ovens:
