How big is the Amazon Basics 19 Inch Portable Propane Fire Pit?
It measures 18.5 inches across and stands 10.2 inches tall. It weighs about 19.76 lb.
How long does a propane tank last on the Amazon Basics 19 Inch Portable Propane Fire Pit?
A full 20 lb tank holds about 430,000 BTU. At the full 55,000 BTU, that is about 7.8 hours of flame. Most people run it lower, so a tank usually lasts longer. Keep a spare tank if you use it every weekend.
Can I use the Amazon Basics 19 Inch Portable Propane Fire Pit under a pergola?
Only with an open roof and the overhead clearance the manual states. A louvered pergola with the louvers fully open is close to open air; with the louvers shut it is a covered patio, and most propane fire pit manuals do not allow that. Never use it in a screened-in or enclosed space, and keep fabric shades and curtains well away from the flame.
Is the Amazon Basics 19 Inch Portable Propane Fire Pit CSA listed?
The listing does not mention a CSA listing. That does not prove the burner is unlisted. Look for the rating plate in the photos, or ask the seller before you buy. Some towns and HOAs only allow listed appliances.
What warranty comes with the Amazon Basics 19 Inch Portable Propane Fire Pit?
We found no written warranty term on the listing. Amazon's return window still applies, so light it and check every part as soon as it arrives.
