Built with tight-woven fire blanket fiber insulation top and bottom, a stainless steel fire separator, and the R3 triple-action interior system, the Karma 55 is designed for high-volume, high-heat wood-fired cooking in demanding environments: wineries, breweries, restaurant patios, catering operations, and serious residential outdoor kitchens. At $3,699 — significantly below the $7,238 list price — it is an exceptional entry point for commercial-grade wood-fired cooking capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003csection class=\"product-section
