Does the well of the pit also have steel mesh in it or is the lid the only thing with steel mesh on it...Also, how deep is the pit itself inside?

Hey Paul,Great questions! The well of the pit does have mesh on the side, not only the lid. Also, the pit itself is approximately 12" deep. We hope this helps!- GHP Group Customer Service Team

The sides and the lid have steel mesh, but the bottom is solid. Not counting the lid, it is about 14" deep.

I really like this Firepit, used it twice this weekend. The bottom of the pit is a solid melt with air vents. The only mesh is around and and the lid. I'm not at home to measure the deepness, however I think it's a nice big size. I put like 5 logs in it and there isn't still plenty of space. Plus you also get a grill racket for out door grilling and a spoker.

No! That's the one thing I didn't realize. If it rains uncovered the pit area gets rusty, as do the glass chards. That's the only bad thing about it, we do use it alot and are very happy with purchase. I'm considering getting a darker color glass to "cover" the rustiness because it takes a long time to clean it.

The base is not metal. More like a fiberglass or something. The bowl in the middle is definitely metal. Does have a little but of weight to it. I would lean more towards cast stone. Heats up like stone around the base. Best fire pit I have ever had that did not involve digging and hauling rocks. Holds 12" logs well, can put 5-6 split with no problems, just have to keep the screen off. I only use the screen when we are done and it is still burning.

Yes, it does come with the pit and it's light, you can move it with no problem.

The mesh is quite strong. Mine arrived in perfect condition. I would mention it to Amazon. They are very good at mitigating issues like that. Don't be shy. It's a big investment and you should be happy with yours.

No, there is NOT a cover for the pit ALONE. There is a fabric cover (included) for the entire unit, mainly to keep out the weather.

The wire mesh is on all sides, including the lid. However, the bottom does not have mesh. It is open at the bottom.

The fire pit/bowl part is approximately 12" tall. But when you put the mesh lid on top, the height just about doubles, I'd say. (It's raining out, so I'm not going to measure, sorry). It's a great piece. I believe you'll like it a lot.

The inside parts of the lid are plastic and there is a silicone rim to keep the grounds from going around the mesh. We use ours every weekend since we bought it and it does not feel flimsy in anyway. It's actually very well made.

its painted and very flimsy u was very unhappy with quaility, it looks well made in pics but i was dissapointed and returned quickly! if i can give you some advice buy pits in 2-300 range they are built well! look at weight in specs a good one is 80+lbs. i ended up buying a propane fire table from az patio heaters and love it! solid, heavy duty, warm, burns clean and no mess and looks great! good luck hope i helped you

The fire pit was a Christmas present for my brother so I don't have first hand knowledge but I did call him about it. He said that the lid was domed and the bulk of the smoke is channeled up and out the top. He said that there was a little smoke that would come through the screen but not enough to be uncomfortable and most of that would escape right around the top also. He lives at a resort lake right on the water's edge and he uses frequently on his swim dock for parties etc. No one has complained so far from smoke bothering them. Hope that helps!

The lid fits very well. It is a glass on glass seal. It lets out little to no steam. The backet is a high quality stainless steel. Its not one of those cheep net ones. This one is more like thin sheet metal with tiny holes drilled into it. Also it is very easy to clean.

Dear Ms. Woods, Thank you for your inquiry to Plow & Hearth. The Fire Pit is only a copper finish. It does not have a drain hole. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance. Sincerely, Sarah Woods Plow & Hearth Customer Service

There is nothing inside the lid. It is simply a stainless steel lid, same inside as the outside.

The pool is packed away because I couldn't use it as a ball pit as I had planned, but as I recall it has an undulated like pattern that is slightly padded just not as thick as the walls. I hope that helps!

Yes ...... it is totally hidden. We researched a lot of fire pits before we bought this one and it is top quality and absolutely love it. One tip though when you have it delivered ask for it to be delivered close to where it will be used as it is very heavy!

It is steel inside. I love this thermos, it keeps liquids really hot and the shape is convenient for slipping in to a decent sized briefcase.
