What customers say
The Mesa fire pit earns high marks primarily for its exceptional design and robust quality.

Know before you buy
The fire pit utilizes a secondary burn design that pulls air through the bottom vents and heats it before releasing it into the fire bowl. This extra oxygen feeds the flames at the top, burning off smoke particles before they can escape into the air.
Yes, the natural patina finish is designed to rust over time, which can leave marks on porous surfaces like concrete or wood. We recommend placing the fire pit on a non-combustible mat or a stone pad to protect your patio surface.
The 1/4" stainless steel is exceptionally durable and built to withstand the elements year-round. While the iron oxide finish will continue to evolve, the structural integrity of the steel will remain intact for years.
Maintenance is minimal. Because it is a wood-burning unit, you simply need to clear out the cold ash after use to ensure the airflow vents remain unobstructed.
At approximately 50 pounds, the fire pit is substantial enough to remain stable in typical outdoor conditions. Its heavy-duty steel construction provides a solid, grounded base.
We strongly advise against placing this unit directly on a wooden deck. Due to the high heat generated by the steel bowl, you should always use a heat-resistant fire pit pad or stone barrier to prevent heat damage to your decking material.
