Propane fire table options
Hi - I've been driving myself crazy for the last 4-5 years looking at propane fire tables, scrolling site after site in massive indecision. Please bear with me!
Backstory: a number of years ago, we bought a propane fire table for our back patio (which is slightly sunken/below grade, with dry-stacked rock and sloped landscaping. The table was square, about 38-40" on a side, and about 24" high. It had metal lattice style sides, and a tile top. We had a sheet metal fabricator make a lid to cover the lava rocks. I decided I didn't like the the fact that it was square (in our rounded area) and it felt oversized. Ended up giving it to my niece (who's happy with it)
So I want something round, something no more than 34" diam. I want a lid, so that it can function as a table surface when not in use. My yard does not have a "modern" vibe, so it'd be great if this had a stone or tile top. (Ideally under $400) I truly can't find exactly what I want, but have narrowed choices down: what I 'must' have vs what I 'want' but can live with(out). But I have now reconsidered the height - and wondering if I should get a lower one (14-16" high) even though it will require having a propane hose and a separate small table for the propane tank to "hide" in. I know this will change the warmth profile - but that's not the primary function - I just want the ambiance and area to gather around.
SO, people - what do you see as being more enticing - a lower one that will feel a little more "campfire-ish", but still able to set your glass of wine on when it's covered? or one more table height, to be able to have your plate of hors d'oeuvres at easy reach? I know there's lots of personal preferences, but not having the option of trying them out, asking what people like is my next best go!
Thanks!!
