Fire Magic Select Electric Warming Drawer: keep side dishes warm while the grill finishes
The Fire Magic Select Electric Warming Drawer is an electric warming drawer for an outdoor kitchen island. Select is Fire Magic’s mid priced line: the frame mounts on the face of the island and covers the cut edge of the opening, with a slim round handle and a magnetic latch. A rain guard around the frame keeps water out of the cabinet, and it skips the foam filled fronts and the soft close of the Flush line, which is where the savings are. Fire Magic builds it in the USA from 304 stainless steel, the grade that holds up best outdoors. It needs an opening 13 inches high, 31 inches wide, and 20.5 inches deep. It suits cooks feeding a long table from a big grill.
It keeps plates and side dishes warm while the grill finishes the meat, so everything lands on the table hot. The drawer is sealed, with vents to let steam out, and a control sets the heat. Plan for an outlet in the island on its own circuit. A buffet insert of stainless steel containers with lids is sold on its own page, and turns it into a serving station. Fire Magic covers the drawer for two years and the heating parts for one. Want storage in the same opening without the heat? See the Fire Magic Select Large Utility Drawer. The Fire Magic Select Electric Warming Drawer ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What does the Select warming drawer do?
It holds cooked dishes, bread and sides at serving temperature in a sealed 304 stainless drawer with moisture vents and temperature control, so multi-course meals come out together. A buffet warming accessory, model 23830-SW-CD, adds stainless containers and lids.
What cutout does it need?
Cut the enclosure 13 inches high, 31 inches wide and 20 1/2 inches deep, per the Specifications tab and the Fire Magic spec guide, the same opening as the Select large utility drawer. Provide a level rear support about 1/8 inch higher than the front, per the manual.
Does it need power?
Yes, it is an electric drawer, so plan a GFCI outlet inside the island near the cutout. The page does not list the rating; the flush-mount version specifies 120 volts on a 15 amp circuit at 475 watts, so budget the circuit accordingly and confirm with the instructions in the box.
How is the Select series built?
Outside mounting, double-wall square-edge construction, a slim tubular stainless handle, a heavy-duty magnetic latch and a continuous rain guard, which on a warming drawer also helps hold the sealed compartment’s heat. See other outdoor warming drawers here.
What warranty covers the 33830-SW?
The Fire Magic spec guide’s warranty table gives Select 3-Series doors and drawers two years and electronic components one year, so the drawer body is covered for two years and its heating element and controls for one, for the original purchaser in single-family residential use.
