You may have heard the phrase "Buy it nice or buy it twice," before and we feel that's a phrase that really sums up the difference between an Outdoor GreatRoom fire feature and budget options that you may find on Amazon or some big box retailers.
Here's a look at just a few of the benefits of purchasing a premium gas fire feature from Outdoor GreatRoom over a big box store's fire pit:
Safety & Performance
All Outdoor GreatRoom Company gas fire pits are UL Listed, which means they meet the highest standard of safety. Many big box stores do not invest the same time and resources into safety in their fire pits, which could cause issues down the line from things like rain, wind, rust or even gas/fuel build up. You can learn more about the benefits and importance of UL by checking out this blog.
All Outdoor GreatRoom fire features also burn at a minimum of 60,000 BTUs, which is much higher than the 30,000-50,000 BTUs that most budget fire features burn at. Learn more about BTUs by checking out this blog!
Variety & Uniqueness
Most budget fire pits are cookie cutter and feature boring designs that don't stand out from the crowd. OGC has over 40 different kinds of fire pits to choose from, ensuring you find the one that best fits your outdoor space's needs.
Product Knowledge & Support
Retail workers at big box retailers are wonderful people! They work hard and have a customer-first mindset, but they are often only trained very broadly as their stores can sell thousands of different products. They may not be able to advise you or support you long-term with a fire pit.
OGC specializes in outdoor fire and we have a dedicated sales and customer service team that can help you through every part of your fire pit journey from selecting the right one, to troubleshooting and basic upkeep and maintenance.
Our YouTube Channel and online chat feature are also great ways to get questions or issues resolved quickly!
Durability
OGC prides ourselves in creating products that not only look great, but also stay looking great over time. This is achieved by using outdoor-rated materials like Supercast Concrete, Aluminum and other durable materials to ensure our products can withstand harsh weather conditions and every day wear and tear. Our outdoor gas burners are made of #304 Stainless Steel, which prevents things like rust and scratching. Many budget products won't use these materials resulting in discoloration, chipping, cracking and breaking, sometimes within a year of purchase.
OGC products also feature warranties that can replace any defects or wear and tear, often at little to no cost to you!
Accessories & Add-Ons
As we mentioned earlier, many big box fire pits are cookie cutter and very few have accessory or upgrade options. OGC fire pits have several accessory options include glass burner covers, glass wind guards, fire media, protective covers, electronic ignition and more!
