Know before you buy
No, the iron oxide finish is designed to develop a natural patina over time and requires no maintenance. It is intended to be left outdoors year-round, where exposure to the elements will only enhance its character.
Yes, but you must use a protective base or heat-resistant pad underneath the unit. While the fire pit is durable, the steel will get hot during use and could damage deck surfaces without proper insulation.
The fire pit features a 1-1/2 inch hole at the bottom that allows rainwater to pass through, preventing water from pooling inside the basin. This design helps protect the interior coating and keeps the fire pit ready for use.
Yes, the interior is finished with a high-temperature resistant paint designed to withstand the intense heat of wood fires. Over time, this coating may show signs of wear, which is normal for a wood-burning fire pit.
The Longhorn fire pit weighs 175 lbs. Due to its significant weight and 36-inch diameter, we recommend having at least two people assist with positioning it in your outdoor space.
