Why The Fire Magic Echelon E660i Griddle Is Worth The Investment

This isn't just a built-in griddle, it's built with a state-of-the-art black glass control panel and the option to convert to a portable cart, giving homeowners a premium design statement alongside the flexibility to relocate the griddle if their outdoor kitchen plans change.

The E660i specifically addresses the needs of homeowners building a matched Fire Magic Echelon outdoor kitchen suite who want distinctive styling and the option for portable use down the road.

Built-In Today, Portable Tomorrow. With the optional portable cart grill base available separately, this griddle isn't locked into a permanent built-in installation, giving homeowners the flexibility to convert to a portable setup if their outdoor living space changes in the future.

Built For Serious Griddle Cooking

The 3/8 in. thick stainless steel griddle surface resists warping under high heat and heavy use for years

Dual heavy duty stainless steel burners provide up to 45,000 BTUs across the full 30" x 18" cooking surface

Two back-lit control knobs enable two-zone cooking, letting you manage different heat levels across the surface

Engineered For Easy Cleanup And Reliable Operation

The two-piece drip collector trough funnels excess grease to the drip pan below through two dedicated ports

120 VAC/12 Volt hot surface ignition provides reliable startup every time

An included stainless steel cover protects the griddle when not in use

Real Savings

A 3/8 in. thick griddle surface reduces the risk of warping compared to thinner griddle plates, extending service life

The optional portable cart conversion avoids the cost of buying a separate portable griddle if plans change

Matching cut-out dimensions with the E660i grill simplifies outdoor kitchen island design

Free shipping and no sales tax through Summit Forge Supply keeps the total cost down compared to buying elsewhere and paying tax and freight separately

The Bottom Line Homeowners building a Fire Magic Echelon outdoor kitchen suite who want distinctive styling and future flexibility can't get that combination from a standard griddle locked into one configuration. The Fire Magic Echelon E660i is built with a striking black glass control panel, a thick warp-resistant griddle surface, and an optional portable conversion, so it completes the outdoor kitchen with room to adapt. For anyone building a matched Fire Magic Echelon suite who values both premium styling and flexibility, this is the griddle built to deliver both.
