KoKoMo 7' Straight Island – Built-In Grill & Fridge
60,000 BTUs. Infrared Rear Burner. Fridge. 7 Feet. No Seating — Pure Cooking Station.
The KoKoMo 7' Straight Island is a focused outdoor kitchen — a 32-inch 4-burner Classic Grill with ceramic sear briquettes and infrared rear burner, an outdoor-rated refrigerator, and a 304 stainless steel access door, built into a 7-foot straight run with no bar seating. All performance, clean footprint, gate-friendly delivery.
The KoKoMo 7' Straight is for cooks who want a serious grilling station without the footprint or layout complexity of a bar island. No wraparound seating, no L-shape — just a 7-foot straight run built around the 32-inch KoKoMo Classic 4-burner grill. The Classic delivers 60,000 BTUs across four commercial-grade burners, with ceramic sear briquettes capable of reaching 1,000°F in under 30 seconds and an infrared rear burner for rotisserie work. An outdoor-rated refrigerator and 304 stainless access door complete the station. The stucco exterior is paintable standard, with a tile upgrade available at order. The whole island fits through a standard 33-inch gate — KoKoMo builds it to ship and install without a contractor.
Everything a Serious Grill Station Needs — Nothing a Cook Doesn't
The 7' Straight is purpose-built for cooks who want maximum grilling performance in a clean, efficient footprint. No bar, no fuss — every square inch is working kitchen.
BTUs — 32" KoKoMo Classic 4-Burner Grill
Four commercial-grade burners deliver 60,000 BTUs across independent cooking zones, plus a dedicated infrared rear burner for rotisserie work. Ceramic sear briquettes sit between the burners and the 304 stainless grates for even heat distribution and flare-up suppression.
Ceramic Sear Briquettes — Under 30 Seconds
The KoKoMo Classic's ceramic sear briquettes can reach 1,000°F in under 30 seconds — steakhouse-level searing heat without a 10-minute warmup. Even a single burner brings the full surface to temperature quickly, with consistent output across all four zones.
Straight Run — No Seating, Full Cook Space
A clean 7-foot straight layout designed without bar seating — ideal for layouts where cooking and entertaining zones are kept separate, or for positioning against a wall or fence without a bar overhang in the way. Full countertop space for prep and staging on both sides of the grill.
Commercial-Grade Stainless Throughout
Grill body, cooking grates, access door, and refrigerator exterior are all 304 commercial-grade stainless steel. The seamless polished hood edges, full-size drip tray, and hood-mounted temperature gauge round out a finish that performs and looks the part year-round.
Outdoor-Rated Refrigerator — Built In
An outdoor-rated stainless refrigerator is built into the island — cold storage for drinks, marinades, and perishables right at the station. No indoor trips mid-cook, no standalone coolers taking up patio space.
Fits Through 33" Gates — Ready to Hook Up
Built to fit through most standard 33-inch residential gates fully assembled. Hook up the gas line and it's ready to cook — no on-site construction, no contractor required for the structure. Stucco exterior is paintable standard; tile upgrade available at order.
The KoKoMo Classic Grill & Straight Layout — Deep Dive
What the KoKoMo Classic 32" Delivers
The 32-inch KoKoMo Classic built-in grill runs four independent commercial-grade burner zones at 60,000 BTUs total, with a separate infrared rear burner for rotisserie cooking. The defining feature is the ceramic sear briquette system — unlike standard lava rock or open-flame grill configurations, the ceramic briquettes absorb heat almost instantly and can reach 1,000°F in under 30 seconds. That's the temperature range that puts a steakhouse-quality crust on a ribeye, something most residential grills simply can't achieve. The briquettes also vaporize drippings before they can cause flare-ups, keeping the cook clean and the heat consistent across all four zones simultaneously. A full-size stainless drip tray catches residual drippings below, the hood-mounted temperature gauge gives a surface-level read without lifting the lid, and SureLight ignition starts every burner reliably. Polished seamless hood edges and a 304 SS body are built for the outdoor environment — no painted panels, no components that won't survive a Pacific Northwest winter or a desert summer.
Why Straight with No Bar Seating
The 7' Straight is the right choice when the cook and the guests need to occupy different zones — or when the island is positioned against a wall, fence, or exterior where a bar overhang doesn't fit. Without seating, the full 7-foot countertop runs unobstructed on both sides of the grill, giving prep space, staging area, and landing room for platters without a bar edge limiting how the surface gets used. It also installs flush against a structure without wasted clearance behind a bar overhang. For homeowners who already have outdoor seating elsewhere and want a dedicated cooking station that doesn't double as a bar, this is the cleaner solution.
Who It's For — The Deck & Den Take
- Cooks who keep guests away from the grill — no bar seating means the cooking zone stays clean and uncluttered; guests stay at the table or lounge area while the cook works.
- Wall or fence installations — the straight layout without a bar overhang installs flush against a structure without requiring clearance for seating behind it.
- Homeowners with existing outdoor seating — if you already have a dining table or lounge area, a straight cooking station complements it without duplicating a social zone.
- High-heat sear cooks — the ceramic sear briquette system hits 1,000°F in under 30 seconds; buyers who prioritize crust and sear performance over slow-and-low will appreciate the difference vs. standard lava rock or open-flame grills.
- Gate-constrained properties — fits through most standard 33-inch gates fully assembled, no disassembly or contractor required for delivery.
- Buyers who want a customizable finish — stucco is paintable to any exterior color; tile upgrade is available at order for a fully finished look from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the total BTU output?
60,000 BTUs from four commercial-grade main burners, plus a separate infrared rear burner. The infrared rear burner operates independently and supports rotisserie cooking.
Why no bar seating — is this a disadvantage?
Not if your patio already has seating elsewhere, or if you prefer to keep guests away from the cooking zone. The straight layout without a bar overhang gives you unobstructed countertop on both sides of the grill, installs flush against a wall or fence, and keeps the footprint clean and minimal. For homeowners who want a bar, the KoKoMo Baja (L-shaped) or St. John (3-sided bar) are the right comparison.
What does "1,000°F in under 30 seconds" mean — is that accurate?
Yes, and it's specific to the ceramic sear briquette system — not the grill surface overall. The ceramic briquettes absorb and radiate heat far faster than standard lava rock or open-flame systems, which is why they reach searing temperature so quickly. This is the cooking surface temperature, not the hood temperature. At those levels, you're into steakhouse-quality crust territory — a meaningful performance difference for cooks who prioritize searing.
What fuel types does the grill accept?
Liquid Propane (LP) and Natural Gas (NG) — select your fuel type at time of purchase. Both the main burners and the infrared rear burner operate on your chosen fuel.
What finish options are available?
Paintable stucco is standard — you can match any exterior paint color. A tile or stone finish upgrade is available at no extra cost when specified at the time of ordering. It's better to choose the tile option upfront than to retrofit later — contact Deck & Den when ordering to specify your preference.
Will it fit through my gate?
The 7' Straight is engineered to fit through most standard 33-inch residential gates. Measure your gate opening before ordering. If your access point is narrower than 33 inches, contact Deck & Den to discuss delivery options.
Can I install this against a wall or fence?
Yes — the straight layout without a bar overhang is specifically suited for wall or fence installations. Ensure adequate clearance above and behind the grill per the install guide for safe gas appliance operation. Local codes may specify minimum clearance requirements for outdoor gas grills adjacent to structures.
Is the refrigerator rated for outdoor use?
Yes — the built-in refrigerator is outdoor-rated with a stainless exterior to match the grill. Contact Deck & Den for specific capacity and dimension details if those specs matter for your planning.
How does this compare to the KoKoMo Baja and St. John?
All three are KoKoMo outdoor kitchen islands with built-in grills and refrigerators. The 7' Straight has no bar seating and uses the Classic 32-inch grill (60,000 BTUs + IR rear burner, ceramic sear briquettes to 1,000°F). The Baja is L-shaped with a 7'6" wraparound bar for 6–8 guests, the Pro 32-inch grill (72,000 BTUs + IR rear burner), umbrella sleeve, GFCI outlet, and optional fire burner. The St. John has a 3-sided bar, the Pro 32-inch grill (87,000 BTUs + IR rear burner), cultured stone and porcelain tile finish, and ships fully assembled. Choose the Straight for a focused cooking station; choose the Baja or St. John for bar entertaining.
How does the island ship and what should I expect on delivery day?
Ships freight. Free shipping on orders over $100 to the contiguous 48 states. Freight deliveries are curbside — delivery details will be in your confirmation email. Do not refuse delivery if visible damage is present; note all damage on the delivery paperwork before signing and contact Deck & Den with photos within 48 hours.
Is it suitable for a covered patio or pergola?
KoKoMo grills are designed for outdoor use. Installations under covered structures require adequate overhead clearance and ventilation above the grill per the install guide. Review local building and fire codes for covered outdoor gas appliance requirements before siting the island.
Can Deck & Den help with layout planning?
Yes — contact Deck & Den and our team can assist with placement planning, finish selection, and delivery logistics. We're an authorized KoKoMo dealer and can answer product questions directly.
What is Deck & Den's return policy?
Deck & Den offers a 45-day return policy on eligible items in original, resalable condition. Review the returns page before initiating a return on freight items. Warranty claims are handled directly by KoKoMo Grills.
