Know before you buy
Yes, the rack is constructed from durable rolled carbon steel with a black powder coat finish, making it suitable for outdoor use. However, like any metal product, we recommend keeping it covered or under a porch to maintain the finish over time.
The rack has a log capacity of 4.38 cubic feet. This size is ideal for keeping a steady supply of wood near your fireplace or fire pit without taking up too much floor space.
Assembly is straightforward and required upon delivery. All necessary components are included, and you should be able to put it together with basic household tools.
The top shelf is specifically designed to store kindling, fire starters, or small tools. It keeps your fire-starting essentials organized and within reach so you don't have to hunt for them when you're ready to light a fire.
At 28 pounds, the rack is substantial and sturdy. Its handforged steel construction provides a solid, stationary base that won't easily tip over when stacked with firewood.
