These outdoor accents are perfect for relaxing, keeping warm, and entertaining your family and friends. Before you decide which type of fire pit is right for you, a guide to fire pits can help ensure that you make the right decision. Read on to discover some helpful tips and features to look for when you’re ready to invest in a fire pit for your patio. ## **A Guide to Fire Pits: Custom Options** If you want to make your outdoor space unique, consider a fire pit you can customize to suit your needs and to match your favorite style. Brands like [OW Lee](https://www.giorgibros.com/ow-lee/brand-type.aspx) offer you the option to design something in your favorite shape, size, finish, and more.

Their incredible selection also features unique shapes and modern designs that will instantly enhance your favorite backyard patio, deck, or garden area.

Fire tables from Sunset West bring the convenience of outdoor furniture together with the fun of a fire pit. This beautiful furniture boasts bold, modern styles that add drama and bold design to your backyard. The durable material is weather-resistant and built to last, which means you’ll be able to enjoy it outside for many years to come. Fire tables are a great alternative to traditional outdoor dining and coffee tables. It gives you a place to eat and gather while you all sit around the comforting glow of a flickering fire. ## **Fuel Types** The type of fire pit you choose may depend on which type of fuel it burns. Most modern fire pits use propane that is fed by a tank either located underneath the inside compartment or from a natural gas line that runs directly to the unit. This fuel burns clean, quiet, and is ideal if you’re looking to create a modern outdoor space. For a more rustic aesthetic, choose a wood-burning fire pit. You can find firewood for sale at most home improvement stores, or you can even cut it yourself if you happen to have access to plenty of trees. Charcoal fire pits are less common, but they produce a nicely controlled, even heat and tend to have a smaller flame. Explore our range of fire pits to find the option that works best for your outdoor [patio furniture](https://www.giorgibros.com/outdoor-furniture,outdoor%20heating_cooling_air/department-type.aspx) needs, and you’ll have a fabulous outdoor feature you can use all year long.
