Fire Pits for Outdoor Warmth, BBQ Cooking and Entertaining

Create a welcoming outdoor gathering space with fire pits from Vartiss Store. The current range includes portable fire pits, fire pit BBQs and multifunction fire pit tables that can provide outdoor warmth, grilling or additional entertaining functions depending on the model.

Current designs range from a compact 45cm fire pit BBQ to larger square fire pit tables, including 2-in-1, 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 configurations. Vartiss Store is based in Bentleigh, Melbourne, with delivery available across Australia.

These products use open flame and solid fuel and are intended for appropriate outdoor use only. Always check the individual specifications, local fire restrictions and supplied instructions before lighting a fire.


Choosing the Right Fire Pit

Different fire pits offer different sizes, cooking functions and configurations. Before choosing a model, consider:

  • Overall dimensions: Measure both the fire pit and the surrounding clearance required for safe use.
  • Intended use: Decide whether you mainly want a fire pit for outdoor warmth, a BBQ function or a multifunction table.
  • Fuel: Check which fuels are permitted for the individual model. Current products include models designed for wood or charcoal where stated.
  • BBQ function: Selected fire pits include a grill or grilling rack for outdoor cooking.
  • Table functions: Some larger models convert into an ice bucket, drinks station or outdoor table when the fire section is completely cold.
  • Materials: Current products use steel or iron bodies, with selected models incorporating ceramic tiles, stainless-steel grills or other components.
  • Included accessories: Mesh covers, log grates, pokers, grilling racks and other accessories vary between models.
  • Assembly: Current products may require assembly. Check the individual listing and supplied instructions.
  • Storage: Consider where the fire pit and removable accessories will be kept when not in use.
  • Local restrictions: Check current council and fire-authority rules before lighting wood, charcoal or other solid fuels.

Dimensions, fuel requirements, accessories and multifunction features vary between products. Always read the individual product page before ordering.


Types of Fire Pits Available

Portable Fire Pits

The current collection includes a portable 22-inch fire pit with a foldable steel design. A more compact fire pit can be useful where the unit needs to be moved or stored between uses, provided it is only operated in a suitable outdoor location where open fires are permitted.

Portable does not mean the product can be safely moved while lit or hot. Allow all fuel and metal components to cool completely before handling or storage.

Fire Pit BBQs

Several current models combine a fire pit with an outdoor cooking function. The compact 45cm fire pit BBQ, for example, includes a stainless-steel food grate, mesh lid, log grate and fire poker.

When using a fire pit for cooking, use only suitable fuel and follow the manufacturer's instructions for the grill and cooking configuration. Keep raw-food preparation and normal BBQ hygiene requirements separate from fire-pit safety.

2-in-1 Fire Pit and BBQ Tables

Selected models combine outdoor warmth and BBQ cooking in one unit. The current 32-inch 2-in-1 design provides a central fire area together with a supplied grilling component, allowing the unit to be configured for either purpose.

Never attempt to install, remove or reposition cooking components while the fire pit is hot unless the manufacturer's instructions expressly provide a safe method for doing so.

Stone-Pattern Fire Pit Tables

The current 81cm stone-pattern fire pit uses a square table-style profile around the central fire area and includes a BBQ grilling rack, mesh dome, log grate and poker.

The surrounding table surface can also become hot during operation. Keep combustible, heat-sensitive and meltable items away from the fire area while the unit is lit or cooling.

3-in-1 Fire Pit Tables

Selected fire pits provide additional entertaining functions. The current 3-in-1 fire pit table can be configured as an outdoor fire pit, BBQ or ice-bucket setup using the supplied components.

The ice-tray configuration must only be used after the fire, fuel and all surrounding components are completely cold.

4-in-1 Fire Pit Tables

The current 4-in-1 fire pit table adds an outdoor-table configuration to the fire pit, BBQ and ice-pit functions. A supplied centre lid covers the fire area when it is being used as a conventional table.

Never install the table lid or ice tray over residual heat, burning fuel or hot embers. Wait until the entire fire area has cooled completely.


Fire Pit Sizes and Outdoor Space

Choosing a fire pit is not simply a matter of fitting the product into an empty space. You also need sufficient clear area around and above the fire.

Before purchasing:

  • Measure the fire pit's complete footprint.
  • Allow generous separation from outdoor furniture, fencing and vegetation.
  • Check for branches, shade structures and other combustible materials overhead.
  • Keep normal access routes clear.
  • Choose a firm, level and non-combustible operating surface.
  • Consider the direction smoke may travel in relation to doors, windows and neighbouring properties.
  • Check local requirements before using a fire pit on balconies, decks or other restricted areas.

Product dimensions should be treated separately from the safe operating area required around an open flame.


Fire Pit BBQs for Outdoor Cooking

Current fire pits include several models supplied with BBQ grilling components. This allows one unit to provide outdoor warmth at one time and a cooking setup at another, depending on the individual product.

When cooking:

  • Use only the cooking components supplied or specifically approved for the product.
  • Use suitable cooking fuel.
  • Do not cook over materials that are not intended as food-safe fuel.
  • Keep children and pets away from the cooking and fire area.
  • Use suitable heat-resistant cooking utensils.
  • Allow grills and other metal components to cool before cleaning or removal.
  • Follow the manufacturer's instructions for food-grill placement and cleaning.

The presence of a BBQ rack does not remove the normal hazards associated with an open fire, hot metal, sparks or embers.


Multifunction Fire Pit Tables

Multifunction fire pit tables can provide more than one use without requiring several separate pieces of outdoor furniture. Current 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 models can be reconfigured using supplied trays, grills or covers.

Before changing configurations:

  • Extinguish the fire completely.
  • Make sure no glowing embers remain.
  • Allow all metal and surrounding surfaces to cool completely.
  • Remove ash or fuel only when safe to do so.
  • Install trays, covers and cooking components according to the supplied instructions.

Never pour water or ice into a hot fire-pit section unless the manufacturer's instructions specifically permit that procedure.


Important Fire Pit Safety

Fire pits involve open flames, radiant heat, sparks and hot metal. They must be used outdoors with appropriate separation from combustible materials and in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

  • Use fire pits outdoors only.
  • Never operate a wood or charcoal fire pit inside a house, garage, shed, tent or other enclosed space.
  • Place the unit on a firm, stable, level and non-combustible surface.
  • Keep furniture, vegetation, fencing and other combustible materials well clear.
  • Do not leave a burning fire unattended.
  • Keep children and pets well away from the fire pit.
  • Do not move a fire pit while it is lit or hot.
  • Use appropriate heat-resistant tools when handling grills, lids or burning fuel.
  • Keep an appropriate means of extinguishing the fire readily available.
  • Do not use flammable liquids to start or revive a fire unless specifically permitted by the manufacturer.
  • Allow ashes, embers and metal components to cool completely before disposal or storage.
  • Check local fire restrictions before every use during periods of elevated fire danger.

In Victoria, specific restrictions apply during the Fire Danger Period. On a Total Fire Ban day, solid-fuel outdoor cooking using wood, coals, heat beads or similar fuel is prohibited. Always check current CFA and local requirements before lighting a fire.


Using Fire Pits During Victoria's Fire Danger Period

Fire restrictions can change with the season and fire conditions. If you are in Victoria, check whether a Fire Danger Period or Total Fire Ban is in effect before using a solid-fuel fire pit or fire pit BBQ.

During a declared Fire Danger Period, additional conditions apply to outdoor fires and cooking equipment. On a Total Fire Ban day, solid-fuel outdoor cookers using wood, coal, heat beads or other solid material cannot be used.

Customers outside Victoria should check the rules that apply in their own state, territory and local council area before lighting an outdoor fire.


Materials, Heat and Surface Protection

Current models use steel or iron bodies, with selected products incorporating powder-coated surfaces, ceramic tiles or stainless-steel cooking components.

Steel and Iron Fire Pits

Steel and iron components become extremely hot during use. Allow the unit to cool naturally before touching, moving, covering or storing it.

Powder-Coated Surfaces

Selected fire pits use powder-coated finishes. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods that unnecessarily damage the coating, and follow the individual care instructions.

Ceramic Tile Surrounds

Selected fire pit tables incorporate removable ceramic tiles around the fire area. Although these provide a table-style surround, surfaces close to the fire may still become hot.

Cooking Grills

Selected models include stainless-steel or other stated grilling components. Clean cooking surfaces according to the manufacturer’s instructions after they have cooled sufficiently to handle safely.


Care and Maintenance

Regular care should be based on the construction and finish of the individual fire pit.

  • Remove cold ash and spent fuel after use when safe to do so.
  • Do not dispose of ash until you are certain no heat or embers remain.
  • Keep cooking grills clean and dry between uses.
  • Inspect mesh covers, log grates and fire bowls for damage.
  • Check assembly fasteners periodically.
  • Keep removable ceramic or decorative components clean according to their material.
  • Protect the fire pit from prolonged moisture where recommended by the manufacturer.
  • Allow the unit to dry before covering or storing it.
  • Stop using components that become structurally damaged.

An outdoor-use product should not automatically be considered maintenance-free or suitable for permanent exposure to all weather conditions.


Complete Your Outdoor Entertaining Area

A fire pit can form part of a broader outdoor entertaining space when furniture is positioned with appropriate separation from heat and open flame. Explore our outdoor furniture for patio seating and tables, or browse bistro sets for compact outdoor settings.

Always maintain suitable clearance between a lit fire pit and surrounding furniture, cushions, umbrellas, structures and other combustible materials.

What is a multifunction fire pit table?

Selected current models can be changed between different configurations. The 3-in-1 model provides fire-pit, BBQ and ice-bucket functions, while the 4-in-1 model also includes a cover that allows the unit to be used as an outdoor table once everything is completely cold.

Current models may require assembly. Check the individual listing and follow the supplied instructions before lighting a fire.
