Yaheetech 26in Fire Pits for Outside Hex Shaped Fire Pit Wood Fire Pit Outdoor Fireplace for Bonfire Patio Picnic BBQ, with Spark Cover, Fire Poker

First off this is a gorgeous firepit. The unique shape and screen top is perfect for a smaller space or smaller group. Even when not in use it is very pleasant to see in the back yard. I had never had a firepit and had to look up all the details on how to safely use it.Here goes: please follow all the fire codes in your area for proper placement. Catching your house on fire would completely ruin an otherwise great evening.Get a good brand name fire mat to protect your deck or yard. After pouring over dismal reviews I went to our local hardware store and picked one up. It wasn't cheap. It is a woven material designed to catch sparks and cinders. It is not a vinyl mat and has no favorite team name on. It is very utilitarian and functional. Pick this out with care. It will protect your expensive deck.Lava rocks. Who knew? I purchased about 20 pounds of small to medium lava rock which created about a two inch deep barrier between the bowl and the fire. The rock protects the firepit and helps disperse the heat. Apparently they will explode if you get the hot rocks wet so do not put your fire out with water. I did not test this information and I would recommend no one else does. Can we say party over? We let our small fire burn itself out.Get a cover for protecting your firepit from the elements unless you can store it. Why get your lava rocks all soggy and messy when an inexpensive cover will make your life so much easier? Amazon has dozens of round covers from which to choose, so make it happen.We love our firepit. We have figured out how much wood to put in for the amount of time we want it to burn. No issues. No rust. You do have to remove the screen for toasting marshmallows or whatever. The pedestal base does not get hot to the touch. This is a great piece at a good price point.I am a novice user so if an expert has additional tips, they would be welcomed!

easy to assemble. I did it myself in about 15 minutes. very sturdy.

I bought this firepit for my 86 year-old father who's excited to be outside on his refurbished patio. I considered a variety of firepits, including the Solo Stove, but I couldn't justify paying the (significantly) higher price for a product that produces similar heat. I'm so glad that I didn't because this firepit is elegant and it's the perfect size for a smaller space. The assembly was a teeny bit tedious, but really, not a big deal.Simply be prepared to spend a little more time on assembly than expected. Love love love it!At the same time, I bought the ROUNDFIRE Concrete Tabletop Fire Pit 2 Pack (Ethanol Fire Pit, Fire Bowl, Mini Personal Fireplace for Indoor & Garden - Bio Ethanol Fuel) and I can't say enough about the versatility of this tabletop piece. Totally worth the price!

I only gave four stars because one of the brackets that holds the top in place was missing, have contacted the seller, hopefully I will get this resolved.Great fire pit nice size, my husband put it together some of the screws can be a little tedious to put on because of the placement, I had to start the screws because my hands are smaller. I would still reorder because it’s so cute.

The media could not be loaded. I live this fire pit. It’s convenient to have in the yard very easy to assemble but if it gets dew on it it does start to rust so I would recommend covering it!

This fire pit seems to be made of quality material. Spark screen seem to be a better quality than the other fire pits I have owned before. Well worth your had earned money.

Love it so pretty good quality.

It’s larger than i thought it would be. But it does the job, it’s perfect.

Love it. It looks great. Solid structure and not hard to put together at all.

Gave to my sister and her family for Christmas and they love it

I love the size of this fire pit. I also love the lid! It also looks great. The fire pit is lighter than I expected

For that price, you can expect something very heavy duty in cast iron or something. However, it overall well made and will last anything from 3 to 5 seasons I'm guessing. Esthetically, it looks good and didn't have ny issues with the drilled holes location...

It works fine but definitely doesn't feel like it's going to last more than a few seasons (our previous fire pit lasted about 10 years).
