BioLite FirePit+ Outdoor Smokeless Fire Pit and Grill

Product Information

These fire pits are made using a recycled washing-machine drum – great if you want to get creative and save some money. All you need to do is remove the drum from the machine, along with any plastic parts, then stake it safely into the ground. You can add legs if you want it higher off the ground. This is because when wood is burned, it releases harmful pollutants, such as small particles known as PM2.5. These tiny particles can be easily inhaled and can enter the bloodstream. Corten steel is durable and weather-resistant but is always rust-coloured, so may not suit all gardens. A fire pit is an essential piece of kit for anyone who would like to utilise their outdoor space more for entertaining family and friends whilst allowing you to still enjoy the outdoors when the temperature drops. At Hayes Garden World we have a large selection of fire pits from wood fuelled to gas fire pits, whatever you are looking for, we have an option to suit you.

Hampton Bay Crossridge 50,000 BTU Antique Bronze Gas Fire Pit: We tested this model during our most recent round of testing and were impressed by both its functionality and style. We think it's perfect for both lazy weekends, and busy weeknights since it's very simple to turn on and off with no firewood needed and no cleanup necessary. We also love that it also functions as a table when not in use, making it a great value as well. This artsy centrepiece is part of Aldi's garden shop range. It features a modern chrome-plated geometric design and stone-effect finish. We found the assembly to be a very easy process, taking us about five minutes in total. However, it's worth noting that we had a hard time lighting the pellets at first, which was a bit of a trial-and-error process. Once lit, we could feel the warmth from the fire about two feet away but felt like we needed to be a little closer while sitting. We also loved the design and felt like the diamond cutouts added a unique touch. Overall, this is a great smaller option to take on camping trips, and we love the affordable price. But if you want a traditional fire pit for friends and family to gather around and smell the campfire, you may want to go with a different option. Don't use flammable liquids to light it - as well as being a massive safety risk, using lighter fluid or other flammable liquids to light a fire pit can damage the pit itself and the surrounding area. Chimineas, fire pits, and patio heaters are excellent investment pieces that will keep you warm and relaxed with family and friends—no matter what the weather is like.Complete with a heat output of 40,000 BTU / 12KW, a stainless-steel burner, and integrated ignition, you can enjoy stable and ash-free green burning without the mess.

You can choose from a variety of sizes, shapes and designs.A BBQ fire pit is a great multifunctional tool, in that you can use it for flame-grill cooking as well as warmth (perfect if you're short on space). It makes an interesting centrepiece for any garden event, and if you opt for a larger than average pit, it can accommodate food for big parties.

No outdoor heater is ‘good’ for the environment. Unfortunately, wrapping yourself up in a blanket or throwing on an extra jumper is the only real eco-friendly way to stay warm in your garden. The flames are powered through gas that you can easily switch on and off. You can get portable models, however most gas fire pits tend to be permanent –and they can be expensive. Built with convenience and aesthetics in mind, gas fire pits are normally impressively designed around pebbles, faux wood or glass. These fire pits are usually log-fuelled, and you can even burn certain wood chips to flavour your food. However, it's worth bearing in mind that they can produce a lot of smoke from the meat or oil drippings, so they need to be cleaned frequently.Hanging fire pits: these fire pits are suspended above the ground on metal chains to further reduce the risk of scorching a patio. Teamson is a global lifestyle home design brand bringing joy into every home through beautiful, quality pieces made for stylishly comfortable everyday living. Teamson Home is our flagship brand continuing our tradition of quality design collections and pieces for the home including versatile indoor and outdoor furniture, lighting, and accessories. Most are powered with bio-ethanol, which means it won’t create smoke and should be easy to switch on and off. It should also have some type of safety screen or glass surrounding it. When evaluating design and extra features, we analyzed the usefulness of any additional and functional design elements, such as an integrated table, as well as any additional tools, such as a firewood poker. We also noted the fire pits’ abilities to contain sparks and tested this trait both with and without a screen for fire pits that came with a spark screen. Our evaluation of a fire pit’s value was based on whether a given fire pit's features and performance were below, on par with, or beyond what could be expected for its price point.
