    It's pretty similar. Mines on it's last legs though. Any day now we'll replace it once I find a nicely priced one

    Mine is 4 years old now and in pretty good shape. I put some fire bricks on the bottom and keep it covered with a sheet of rubber when not in use.

    You guys are getting me motivated to fire up the pit today as well. It's been too long!

    Not anywhere near nice out last night or this am. It dumped rain and we were in a flood watch. Not boating weather either, so I continued to paint the ceilings in the stove room/ family room. Maybe we'll get lucky and we can have a fire tonight? Or Sunday night??

    We're starting to hit the season in the northern states where outdoor fires are less common, because you need to rotate to keep your backside warm. Lol

    That said indoor fires in the stove are becoming more common.

    Also, I'll have leaves and other yard debris to burn while I'm processing/ moving firewood
