Customer Reviews for Fire Sense Bessemer 28 in. Round Steel Fire Pit in Black

We purchased this recently, assembly by 1 person is tough, my wife and and I put it together in just over an hour. Been using it nightly ever since, love the height difference compared to our older one, the heavy duty construction puts it in a Excellent Rating. Our 1st Fire Sense Round Fire Pit that we purchased 15 years ago, broke down last month.

Works great as a portable fire pit! Easy to move around.

My hubby and I just bought this fire pit and we love it. Easy to assemble and it looks great on our porch.

If you don't mind a cheap fire pit, then this is the to buy.

Great fire pit, kept us warm on a 40 degree night in Wisconsin!

Assembly was fairly easy, but quality of materials was typical for “made in China” goods. Cheap and flimsy! If I get a year or two out of this fire pit, I will be happy!

We purchased this to replace an old one that we had. We have had it for about one month and it has been a great replacement. My kids were able to assemble it!

Very flimsy and I doubt it will lat long, but works as designed

Got this fireplace over the weekend and I loved how easy it was to put together. The directions were simple to follow and the pack of screws, nuts and washers was well labeled and easy to know what part to use where. I love that I can open the door to roast a marshmallow and having it on wheels is easy to move it around on the driveway. Can't wait to have a lot of fires in this fireplace!

Use it to burn brush from yard work and have bonfires.

I have made many "hot fires" to my enjoyment. Took an hour to put it together. The two have burned 300 lbs. of wood and trash. Well worth the expense. You get a10 out of ten. Gerald

we bought this fire pit about a week ago and it's fantastic. we had only (2) fires in it so far because of the weather. it was just a nice fire pit.

Priced way too high for the quality of the product.

We've used this same model at our previous home for wood burning fires and socializing with our neighbors. Now that we've moved to our home that has a outdoor gas fire pit, we purchased a similar model just to use the upper screen and lid portion which is both attractive and functional as the lid helps to disperse the heat for more efficient warming.

Beautiful fire pit and my husband had no complaints

Received my fire pit kit and assembled it. 2 things I noted could be improved: 1. directions for leg assembly should indicate putting the indented wheel ends to the outside/wheel side so the wheel frame bolts to the fire pit base correctly using the pre-drilled holes. 2. one of the holes for attaching the screen to the base was not drilled on the screen, requiring a hole to be drilled there. Overall the fire pit looks good and I'll fire it up very soon!@

Great for the price. Perfect for a yard with a lot of trees.

Tough to put together. The screening and door was bent which made it difficult.

Good fire pit, plenty wide. Allow for long-lasting fires as long as there is a bed of Ash at the bottom 4 insulation. This will help prevent burnout of the metal grating and bottom of unit. The only problem I see is relatively thin metal in the construction. I've been using this for about 3 months with no problems.

It seems this style of fire pit is losing out to prettier but less efficient models. The quality of construction on these has changed considerably over the years. The screen mesh is now a bunch of very light gauge panels that are bolted together and the door is very flimsy. Previous models had a single piece heavier gauge mesh with heavier gauge tops and bottoms. All of that being said, the fire pit is still one of the best designs out there for giving off heat and being easy to transport if needed. We use these at tailgates and in the back yard and it is no problem to move from place to place but the older model was more heavy duty and this one may not be as durable over the long haul. Still a good pit for the price.

It took a while to put together but everything was well markedGood instructions

Just purchased second Bessemer Patio Fireplace. Very impressed with improvemets. Larger door opening,bottom pan air regulator and lid latch brackets to name a few. Was a breeze to assemble. Can't wait for some cool weather so we can get outside and enjoy it.

A lot of screws but easy enough to assemble.

Perfect fire pit for burning sticks, leaves and brush collected around the yard. It puts out lot of heat and the viewing is 360!

Received the firepit a few days ago and the family had to 'try it out'. It's great ! Fired that puppy up and toasted marshmellows. Nobody could wait till a got a little cooler, had to do 'right now'. It was a relatively easy process to assembly with the 'hardest' part shaping the screening around the base and attaching which was too bad. Can wait till it gets really cool to enjoy the cracklin fire, good conversation. family getogether. For us it's the perfect family party.

I just bought and received the firepit this week. Have not had a chance to build a fire in it yet. The assembly went very easy with no missing parts. As per the booklet that came with the firepit, put some coarse sand in the bottom to help extend the life of the product.
