This is our second unit. The first one lasted outside, used at least 75 times a year for 7 years. This is a very sturdy, safe fire pit. The bowl is high enough off the deck that we have used a bbq mat from Ace hardware and the deck does not even get warm to the touch underneath. The opening screen is the only way to go, it makes loading safe ( no hot screen swinging around ), and easy. We just bought the new one because the copper stared to get a little thiner than I liked, and the steel grate was warped after some rather large fires. Good Stuff, very happy with this unit.

This is a great purchase. It is beautiful to look at especially as the copper changes color after burning wood in it. Very sturdy.

First of all, I will admit that this is my very first firepit, so keep that in mind when considering my review. I decided to purchase this product for several reasons: 1. Based on the 5 5-star reviews here at Amazon 2. I wanted a copper pit for some aesthetic reasons 3. I thought the idea of a swiveling screen was nice. Okay, the pit works, first of all. However, we are using it on a wooden deck and I can promise you that you will need to place something under it to protect the deck from heat. I went to Lowe's and purchased 4 16" porcelain floor tiles to make a big square under it, and then right in the middle, I placed a 14" square 2" think concrete paver. That, or something similar, is what you will need to protect your wooden deck from heat. Now, I do not feel that I got nearly $150 worth of product in this pit! I wish I had shopped at Lowes or Home Depot first because they have some really nice looking pits for $160 down to $130. One they had was inset inside a square 'table' where you could prop your feet up on to get your toes 'toasty' warm. My biggest complaint with this product, however, is the screen. The screen mesh is too coarse to catch anything but the biggest of flying embers. But, it is very flimsy in construction and the least bump around the bottom ring will warp it (mine came out of round out of the box) and then it won't 'fit' on the inner ledge of the fire pit properly. After a couple of tries, we decided it wasn't even worth using and have cast it to the side! Well, there goes one main reason for choosing this pit. My advice is don't be totally taken in by the photos and favorable reviews because this pit is worth $100 at most.

We have had this fire pit for about a month now and have had fires in it several times already. We have cooked sandwiches and pies in pie irons and toasted marshmallows, and of course, just sat and watched the flames dancing in the night. We live in Ohio and the evenings are cool enough to enjoy the fire. Since we leave this sitting on our contrete patio at all times, I did drill holes in the bottom of the copper bowl with a masonry bit to allow water to drain out. And I particularly wanted one that had a screen that you could open to add more wood. Much easier than trying to remove a hot screen. This is a sturdy and attractive fire pit. We plan on using it until winter and then will store it in the garage.

Additional note: It is now 3 years later and we still love this fire pit! We just put it away about a month ago (we had unseasonably warm weather in December) and will eagerly wait for Spring to start using ir again. It still looks great -- the inside of the copper bowl is darkened, but everything else is still good. Love it!

Have only used it a few times, works like a firepit should I suppose. The black screen rusts quickly - still not sure why a painted surface should rust after being left out once, but whatever - so now it just stays out. Family likes it. The only thing I would prefer is if it had an formed or indented circle inside the copper bowl so the screen stays in place better.

was simple to assemble, looks very sharp, i do like to find items that don't look like everyone elses (ie. the ufo looking pits with ceramic tiles on edge!)--the copper is a classy touch and should age well...we haven't used it yet, but i see that adding sand will add weight and longevity to this product..i think fairly priced since these can range from 75- 300..nice flip screen option ..only con is that edges probably do get hot..but eh..it is a firepit!

Awesome product at a wonderful price. Was a gift for my husband who has gone through a number of firepits that never held up. Glad we went with the copper that should last a while. Good quality and the perfect size for our needs. Would definitely order through this company again, they sent out my order immediately and got it to us in time for Christmas which we couldn't believe since we had ordered so late. Great customer service, they are fantastic.

Best part is the way the side lid opens to access logs but the unit is light and a little flimsy. Hard to get a cover that fits well for this pit too. No side edge to rest your feet on.

Since we got this patio fire pit last year we've extended our backyard season. Sets a nice atmosphere and gives you just enough extra warmth to enjoy the early fall evenings. Throw something on the grill and then enjoy a meal by the fire.

I bought this as a gift and the person I gave it to had only nice things to say about it. It arrived quickly and was very nicely packaged. Thank you.
