How long will a mid-range outdoor fire pit table last me?

JL Spring & Associates on Jul 09, 2011Hi John, I like the looks of this model...very sleek and "hip!" Are you using it with natural gas or propane? I would imagine that the unit should give you several years of use if maintained per manufacturer's guidelines. Does the bottom have adequate drain ports to inhibit rust developement? I'd see what this will do for a starter "test-run" and either replace with similar or upgrade. Intense heat will age almost any metal device especially with constant exposure to the elements...maybe one of those off-set 12' umbrellas would help protect it. Does it come with a cover/lid?...I made this pix for you to "see what I mean!" Hey, best wishes to you, enjoy the day whatever you're up to! JLHelpful Reply

Candace Rocha on Jul 27, 2014Natural gas? propane? whats up with that? Wood man. good old fashioned wood! and for how long it lasts depends on if you have a nice little fire or if you have a barn burner. My neighbor had barn burners and killed theres in less then a summer. I have nice little fires and turn it so water doesn't collect when it rains and put it away in the winter and I still have mine. I wanted a nice little fire pit to sit by my pond in the summer and enjoy the warm summer evenings with.Helpful Reply

Anita on Sep 24, 2014Just out of curiousity, why do you even have to have the fire pit table? My son in law has a fire pit out in his back yard with the wall & just throws the wood into it... Than you won't have to worry abt replacing anything.Helpful Reply

Candace Rocha on Sep 26, 2014I also don't leave the bowl in place unless using it so it won't fill with water. I tip it up in an inverted or upside down position. this helps avoid rust. I also put it away in the winter.Helpful Reply
