Fire Magic Aurora A790i Built-In Grill, 36-Inch, 304 Stainless Steel

The Fire Magic Aurora A790i is built around 1/4-inch thick cast stainless steel burners — a construction detail that matters when you're running 90,000 BTU across 792 square inches of primary cooking surface, night after night, season after season. This isn't a grill that asks you to compromise on materials to hit a price point.

The A790i also includes a 25,000 BTU infrared burner on the left side, giving you a dedicated high-heat zone for searing without turning the entire cooking surface into a furnace. Pair that with 288 square inches of warming rack space, and you have the real estate to run a full cook without staging food on a side table.

Hot surface ignition (HSI) handles startup reliably — no clicking, no holding a flame to a burner, no theater. The comfort touch control knobs feature LED backlighting, so the layout stays readable after dark without needing to angle a phone flashlight at the control panel. The analog thermometer sits behind an angled bezel for accurate, glanceable reads while the hood is down.

Speaking of the hood: it's double-walled and spring-assisted, opening a full 90 degrees. The double-wall construction helps maintain heat stability inside the cooking chamber while keeping the exterior surface cooler to the touch — a detail that matters in high-traffic outdoor spaces.

The entire grill body is 304 stainless steel, the grade that holds up to outdoor exposure without demanding a seasonal maintenance ritual. At 36 inches wide and 22 inches deep, the A790i is sized for a serious outdoor kitchen installation without dominating the entire enclosure.

Installation flexibility is built in: the Insulating Liner (model 3186-52) is designed specifically for safe installation into wood, composite, or combustible enclosures — so you're not limited to a masonry surround. If you prefer a freestanding setup, the A790i is compatible with the portable cart base (model 790-SC24). The Magic View Window is also available as an optional compatible accessory for those who prefer to monitor a cook without lifting the hood and releasing heat.

At $7,869, the Aurora A790i sits in the category of outdoor cooking equipment you buy once and use for decades — not because we said so, but because 1/4-inch thick burner walls and 304 stainless construction have a way of proving the point over time.
