Fire Magic Portable Cart Gas Grill Base: a rolling base for a patio without an island
The Fire Magic Portable Cart Gas Grill Base is a rolling stainless steel cart that turns a built in Fire Magic grill into a freestanding grill. It fits the 2024 and newer 30 and 36 inch Echelon and Aurora grills, the griddles, and the pizza ovens. It suits patios without islands and renters who want to take their grill along. It is 304 stainless steel, the grade that holds up best outdoors. Two soft close drawers and a soft close door hold tools and the propane tank, and twin side shelves fold down when you park it.
The price is for the cart only, and the grill is sold on its own page. On the page you pick the 30 inch or the 36 inch size to match your grill. The gas hose is sold separately. Need a grill to go with it? See the Fire Magic Echelon E660i Built In Grill with Analog Thermometer. The Fire Magic Portable Cart Gas Grill Base ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
Which cart base fits my grill?
Two sizes are sold on this page through the Sizes selector. The 36-inch base, model 790-SC24, carries the E790i and A790i grills. The 30-inch base, model 660-SC24, carries the E660i and A660i grills as well as the Echelon and Aurora gourmet griddles and the 4600 and 5660 built-in pizza ovens. Pick the size that matches the unit you are converting.
What comes with the cart base?
Soft-close double drawers, a soft-close access door for storage, fold-down twin side shelves and a tank ring holder. The optional sliding tank tray, part 24336-36, and the gas hoses are sold separately: a two-stage LP regulator hose, part 5110-15, for propane or a 10 foot quick-disconnect hose, part 5110-03, for natural gas. Contact us to add those to an order.
How big is the cart?
The cart base manual linked in the Catalog tab lists both sizes at 37 1/2 inches to the shelf tops and 27 inches deep at the base, about 44 3/4 inches with the grill in place. The 660-SC24 is 34 1/8 inches wide at the cabinet, 44 1/4 inches with shelves down and 64 1/4 inches with both shelves up; the 790-SC24 is 39 3/4, 50 and 70 inches.
Does a propane tank fit inside?
Yes. The manual is written for a standard 20 pound propane cylinder about 12 inches in diameter and 18 inches high, held by the tank ring holder, or by the optional sliding tank tray with a collar latch for easier access. Never store a spare cylinder in or near the cart, and keep the cylinder valve closed when the grill is not in use.
Can I make my existing built-in grill portable?
The description says the bases convert 2024 and newer Fire Magic 30 and 36 inch gas grills, griddles and pizza ovens to portable models, so a recent built-in E660i, A660i, E790i or A790i can move onto a cart. Older units may not match the mounting, so check the model year before ordering. See other portable grills here.
Is a cover available?
Yes. The description notes optional protective vinyl covers are available for every base and grill combination; they are not an on-page selector, so contact us with your grill model to add the right cover. The cart is for outdoor use only, and the manual asks that the cylinder be disconnected and removed if the unit is ever stored indoors.
