The Cuisinart fire pit warms up outdoor gatherings with sleek style and a smokeless fire. A modern accent to your patio or deck, the wood-burning fire pit assumes a tapered bowl silhouette with a high-heat black enameled exterior and stainless steel interior and rim. Not just great to look at, the generously sized fire pit burns efficiently, cleanly and without smoke by pulling air in from the bottom and warming it between double walls. As the hot air travels through holes at the top of the unit, any ash debris or smoke that the flames create is burned off. A three-legged stainless steel base elevates the bowl for additional airflow and limits heat build up on the ground. Once the fire has cooled, all that remains is ash, which is easily discarded by removing the fire bowl and lifting out the ash tray for disposal.
