Know before you buy
The Basso fire pit stands at 21.25 inches tall, which is considered 'chat height.' It is designed to pair perfectly with standard outdoor lounge chairs or deep-seating patio furniture rather than taller dining chairs.
The Basso is a freestanding unit, and the propane tank is typically connected externally. You will need to ensure you have a clear path for the hose to reach your tank while keeping it discreetly tucked away.
The fire pit weighs 160 lbs, which provides excellent stability against wind and accidental bumps. Due to its weight and heavy-duty construction, it is intended to be a semi-permanent fixture rather than a portable piece you move frequently.
The fire pit comes with the integrated colored glass included. It is specifically designed to work with the 36-inch burner to reflect the flames and provide an even, ambient glow.
This model is specifically configured for propane fuel. If you require a natural gas connection, you should consult with a professional installer or contact O.W. Lee to see if a conversion kit is available for this specific model number.
