There are a few things to consider when searching for the perfect fire pit table for your patio this autumn and with a vast selection to choose from, we’ve certainly got you covered. At Fireplace Stone & Patio, we recommend considering these primary features when making your decision: color, shape, size, materials and overall aesthetic.
Color is a major component for a fire pit, as it can help pull your entire outdoor living space together by having complementary tones. Whether you’re creating your patio from scratch or adding to an already existing space, it’s not uncommon for you to have a theme, color palette and aesthetic in mind.
Knowing your style and theme can help you determine which fire table would best fit your space. Homeowners often consider the exterior color of their home, their patio furniture and their pavers when deciding on the potential color of their tabletop flames.
Shape & size may also come into play when shopping for an ideal fire pit table. The majority of fire pits come in one of the following shapes: square, round, rectangular and linear. While most of these options are fairly straight-forward, both rectangular and linear are rectangular in shape. However, a linear table is somewhat larger and tends to have longer sides of 54” or more.
When debating which shape is right for you, consider how you’ll use it. Larger round and square fire tables are great focal points to gather around when entertaining. Rectangular fire pits work well with sectionals and outdoor sofas. Meanwhile, linear or dining fire tables can provide a place to eat a meal or have some drinks.
Choosing a small, more compact fire table (or even a fire bowl) is ideal in tighter spaces. Meanwhile, large fire tables are great to gather around come fall when you have family or guests over.
Materials can also have a huge impact on the durability and appearance of a fire pit. Our Outdoor Greatroom Company fire tables often include aluminum, poly wood, composite/faux wood, metal, Supercast concrete, Everblend concrete, granite tile, glass and stainless steel. These can affect how lightweight and durable your table is, especially during those cold and snowy midwestern winters.
The final piece to consider when shopping for a fire pit table in our Nebraska and Iowa showrooms is the overall aesthetic. Whether you like a sleek, modern appearance or a more industrial look, we’ve got you covered!
