Outland Living Series Fire Table

After reviewing a whole lot of fire tables, we decided to go with this one, though it was more expensive than a lot of others. We absolutely love this fire table! My search criteria included 4 star reviews and above. I looked at many with 4- 4 1/2 stars, but this one had 5 stars and 1800 reviews 4.8 actually and now at 1902 reviews. I thought that was amazing and I found nothing else that came close unless they only had a handful of reviews. Be sure you realize, this is the fire table only. If you want the lid that goes over burner, the glass wind screen and the heavy duty cover for the whole unit, you will shell out more money. However, you will want it and it is worth it as every piece is top quality. The boxes arrived incredibly well packed with everything secure and nothing damaged. All pieces were there, nothing missing, and they even included an extra screw for each of the two screw sets. Good thinking on their part. Putting it together was pretty easy, but was even easier when a friend dropped buy and gave me a hand as it fairly heavy and better handled by two people. As others have stated, if you order the extra items, (lid, glass wind screen and cover), it is a good idea to wait until you have all the elements. The fire table arrived the next day from Amazon warehouse and the peripheral pieces about 3 days later as they shipped from British Columbia. On of the incredible things about this fire table that I did not see in any others is the holder underneath the top of the table for the fire pit glass lid. Genius and well designed. However, that hardware comes with the other pieces you will order, most likely. It is easier to install it when you are putting the table together the first time and it is UPSIDE DOWN. You could certainly install it after you have already put the table together, but it’s just easier to do it in sequence. We found all the pieces to be very well made and they fit perfectly. All holes and screws lined up, everything fit the way it was supposed too. The glass for the lid and the wind screen is quite thick. The metal angle brackets that hold the wind screen together are definitely quality. Some reviews complained about the cover because it was too tight. They must have listened because the cover has a heavy duty zipper on one corner plus some really nice snaps. The cover fits like a glove and looks great. The table is the perfect hight for outside dining and the width is greater than most other fire tables, which is beneficial. I had kind of wanted a propane access where it pulls out like a drawer, which this does not have. However you can remove either of the long sides with the metal rings that you see in my photo. They remove and replace very easily and once removed, there is plenty of access to the propane bottle. I included one photo with the side off where you can see the glass lid part way into the storage space. Such a great idea. The burner has an automatic starter, no batteries needed. What we found out is, you need to be sure you have enough of the ignition area and a little more cleared off to let the gas pool, and, you need to turn the fire table ignition knob on slowly to let the gas build up before you reach the point in the rotation where the igniter is. On windy days it can be challenging. We keep an electronic match nearby in case. We have had this for about three weeks and are extremely happy and get very positive comments from friends.
