Best Fire Pits for 2024
Top Rated Fire Pits
Fire pits have come a long way from the crude holes dug in the ground by early man, but they still impart the same feelings: comfort, warmth, and a sense of community. Toss in modern design and efficiency, and you’ve got the perfect addition to introduce a new focal point to your space and extend your outdoor living season.
Fire pits come in a massive variety of shapes and sizes — not to mention a few different fuel types — so our selection is bound to include a few models that seem to be made just for you. In fact, our outdoor living experts surveyed that selection with quality, performance, and features in mind to help you start your search with the best fire pits available. (Same goes for our best fire pit sets.) Picking our favorites wasn’t easy, but after more than 20 years in the business, we know what separates the good from the great.
-
Quality - You probably hear that word thrown around a lot, but what does it actually mean? For us, quality is a mixture of construction, the grade of materials, and the length of warranties. Simply put, we highly value fire pits that are built to last.
-
Performance - Fire pits don’t have to clear many hurdles to their job properly but struggles at any point will cause you more headaches than it’s worth. We rate fire pit performance according to 3 factors: ease of operation, simplicity of ignition, and reliability.
-
Features - Sure, the primary function of fire pits is to provide a warm and cozy atmosphere, but they can also serve as a distinct design piece in your space. Features like fire pit glass and decor are what separate a simple heat source from a dazzling display of flames.
