The best outdoor gas fireplaces, compared.
Top pick: FansaFurn fire pit table Best value: Onlyfire 28-inch tabletop pan – Highest score per pound among rows at 50 or above, at about £119.99, with 4.6 from 40 reviews that describe this shape. Updated 22.10.2026.
An outdoor gas fireplace on amazon.co.uk is a propane flame for a patio: a tabletop pan, a portable fire bowl, or a fire pit table with a lid. You are choosing a clean flame without logs or chimney smoke. It is not a room heater and not a wood pit. Heat claims run from 3.2 kW to about 17 kW once 58,000 BTU/h is converted at about 3,412 BTU/h per kW. Tell the products apart by form and by whether the listing speaks UK patio gas or US 20 lb tank language. The saved review sample is mostly not from the United Kingdom. Form, heat class and the cylinder are set out in the [outdoor gas fireplace buying guide](/hub/fireplaces-and-stoves/outdoor-gas-fireplace/sub/outdoor-gas-fireplace-buying-guide). A tabletop pan needs a table you already own. Propane for a UK patio appliance sits at a nominal 37 mbar on the regulator Gas UK describes, on the cylinder valve the manual names. A US 20 lb hose is not automatically a UK patio-gas clip-on. The listing prints a standard 20 lb cylinder and 250 as a maximum supply pressure. The tank is not included on the listings that say so.

Personal buying guide
Question 1 of 2
Where will the flame sit?
The FansaFurn fire pit table lists at £464.34 for a 110 × 69.5 × 68 cm iron piece with dual stainless burners claiming 50,000 BTU, a removable lid, lava rock, a waterproof cover and a glass shield. One-touch ignition and an adjustable knob are in the bullets. The rating line is 5.0 from 6, but the only saved review body is from the United States. Hose length and regulator type are not stated, and the cylinder is not listed as included. It is the most expensive row in this folder, so the perfect star line is a thin signal without UK owner text.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A buyer who wants a larger lid table and will confirm the gas kit against a UK cylinder before relying on the 5.0 line.
Less suitable: Shoppers who need UK review text, a named 5 kg tank bay, or a lower mid-range price.
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing claim?
50,000 BTU from dual stainless steel burners. The table is listed at 110 × 69.5 × 68 cm and 30.9 kg.
Is a cover or lid included?
Yes. The bullets name a waterproof cover, a removable lid, lava rock and a glass shield. Hose length and regulator pressure are not stated. The cylinder is not stated as included.
Where are the saved reviews from?
The rating line says 5.0 from 6. The only saved body is from the United States and does not describe a fault.
The Onlyfire 16-inch square pan with a bottom-mounted hose is £144.99 and claims 6.74 kW, with lava rocks, a glass wind guard and a long hose in the bullets. It is sold for tables with umbrella holes so the line can pass through the centre. The star line is 5.0 from four UK reviews; owners like the look and a warm table centrepiece. One buyer ordered the wrong variant and was still happy, which is not a product fault. The bullet prints 40 × 40 × 37 cm while item dimensions say 40 × 40 × 31 cm, so the height figure is unsettled. Cover and regulator pressure are not on the page.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A diner whose table already has an umbrella hole and who wants the hose out of sight under the top.
Less suitable: Buyers who need settled dimensions, a cover in the box, or a side-mounted hose they can route beside the table.
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing claim?
6.74 kW. The heating-coverage field says 100 sq ft.
Which dimensions are printed?
The bullet says 40 × 40 × 37 cm. Item dimensions say 40 × 40 × 31 cm. Chamber depth says 37 cm. Weight is 12.1 kg. The size field says bottom mounted, and the bullet says it fits umbrella holes.
Is a cover included?
Not in included components, which name lava rocks and a glass wind guard. The listing asks about a cover and does not answer it in the spec block. The assembly field says no assembly required.
The Onlyfire 16-inch round tabletop pan lists at £179.99 with a 6.74 kW claim, a glass wind guard, a long hose and lava rocks in the bullets. The star line is 5.0 from two United Kingdom reviews, and neither describes a leak or a broken part. One buyer liked the round shape, the glass and lava once lit, and enough heat to take the evening chill off. The other notes straightforward ignition and a stable base. Gas use on longer evenings is mentioned once, and a propane bottle is not in the box. Two reviews are a thin sample next to pans with dozens of ratings.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Someone who prefers a round centrepiece and will accept a thin but clean UK review file.
Less suitable: Buyers who want a large independent review sample or a fire pit table with a lid and tank bay.
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing claim?
6.74 kW.
What shape and size are listed?
Round, 40 × 40 × 31 cm, 11 kg. Chamber depth is also 31 cm.
Is the propane cylinder included?
No. One of the two UK reviews says you need a propane bottle. Included components name lava rocks. The bullets also name a glass wind guard and a long hose. A cover is not listed.
The Outland Living Firebowl 893 is a 19-inch portable propane bowl at £269.06 that claims 58,000 BTU and arrives with a cover, carry kit, pre-attached 10 ft hose, adjustable regulator and lava rock. The amazon.co.uk line reads 4.8 from 17,168 reviews, yet the first 50 saved bodies are mostly from the United States, with only three from the United Kingdom. Reviewers praise a quick set-up and a clean flame where wood fires are banned, including one UK campsite that allowed propane. Propane use on high can empty a small cylinder quickly, and more than one review says the lava-rock bag count fell short. The listing speaks a standard 20 lb cylinder and prints 250 PSI as max supply pressure; it does not name 37 mbar or a UK patio-gas clip-on. CSA is named; UKCA is not.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A buyer who wants a portable bowl with a huge rating line and will check the hose and regulator against a UK patio-gas cylinder before first light.
Less suitable: Anyone who needs UKCA wording, a stated 37 mbar regulator, or a fire pit table with a dining lid.
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output and ignition does the listing claim?
58,000 BTU. Ignition is manual. A 10 ft hose and an adjustable regulator are included. The cylinder is a standard 20 lb tank and is not included. Listed size is 19 inches across and 10.4 kg.
Is the CSA line a UK approval on this listing?
The listing says CSA approved. It does not say UKCA. It prints a max gas supply pressure of 250 PSI. It does not print 37 mbar or a 27 mm clip-on.
What do the saved reviews repeat?
Of the first 50 bodies, 3 are from the United Kingdom. Repeated themes in the sample are portability, use where a wood fire is banned, high gas use, lava-rock bags short of the claim, and manual lighting. One review says the hose rubber flaked after one use.
The Outsunny fire pit table at £225.99 is a 109 × 56 × 63 cm dining piece with a 50,000 BTU burner, glass beads, a glass screen, a lid, a waterproof cover, and a pre-assembled regulator and hose for a standard 5 kg tank in the bottom bay. The rating line is 4.7 from 9; four UK bodies are saved. Buyers call assembly straightforward and like the look of the table and flame. In light wind the flame is still noisy even with the glass screen, and one reviewer says the glass came apart when lifted before it was cold. Another found no AAA cell despite the bullet saying batteries are included.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A household that wants the fire to be the dining table and prefers a named 5 kg tank bay over US 20 lb hose language.
Less suitable: Campers who need a carry bowl, or anyone who wants a large independent UK review sample.
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing claim?
50,000 BTU from a stainless steel burner.
Is a gas cylinder included?
No. The bullet says the regulator and hose are pre-assembled and the gas tank is not included. It names a standard 5 kg tank and a bottom holding area. Outlet pressure is not stated.
Does it come with a cover?
Yes. The bullets and the item highlight include a waterproof cover, a glass screen, glass beads and a lid. Maximum load is 30 kg. Assembly is required.
The Onlyfire 28-inch tabletop pan at £119.99 claims 6.5 kW and ships with lava rocks, a glass wind guard and a hose. It scores 4.6 from 40 reviews, and the 22 saved UK bodies actually describe a 28-inch pit on a garden or coffee table. Owners like the look and the heat when they sit close, and several call it good value. The glass sits only on the long sides in more than one review, so a cross-wind can drop the flame. One buyer found a 1.5 m hose where the bullet says 3 metres, and another says the spark failed after the second day. No cover is listed.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A patio diner who already has a sturdy table and wants the best score-per-pound tabletop pan with real UK review text.
Less suitable: Buyers who need a lid as dining furniture, a named UK 37 mbar figure, or a full four-sided glass screen.
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing claim?
6.5 kW.
Does it come with a cover?
No cover is listed. One UK review dropped a star because a cover would be needed to keep it clean.
How long is the hose?
The bullet says 3 metres. One UK review says 1.5 metres with a gas regulator. Outlet pressure is not stated. Another review says the glass is only on the two long sides.
The Onlyfire 18-inch tabletop listing at £99.99 claims 3.2 kW and names a UK regulator in the title, with a 1.9 m hose and regulator plus lava rocks and a 360-degree glass bullet. The star line shows 4.6 from 40, the same figures as the 28-inch Onlyfire, and the 22 saved review bodies are identical to that ASIN. Two bodies in that shared set mention an 18-inch Onlyfire, but the file is not an independent sample for this page. Piezo ignition is in the bullets; no cover is named. Buy it only if you accept the duplicated reviews and will confirm the regulator against your cylinder.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A budget buyer who wants UK regulator wording on the title and will not treat the shared 40-review line as proof for this model.
Less suitable: Anyone who needs independent UK reviews or a higher heat class for a larger patio group.
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output and regulator does this listing claim?
3.2 kW. The title says a UK regulator. Included components name a 1.9 m hose and regulator. Outlet pressure is not stated. Item weight is 5.1 kg.
Do the saved reviews describe this 18-inch model?
The rating line says 4.6 from 40. The 22 saved bodies are identical to B0D8T8XWQW, including text about a 28-inch pit. They are not an independent sample for this ASIN.
What ignition does the listing name?
A piezo ignition and a control knob, in the bullets. The glass bullet, repeated three times, says a 360 degree windshield 7.7 cm high.
The Onlyfire FP063 is a 28-inch rectangular tabletop pan at £135.50 that claims 40,000 BTU and includes a 10 ft hose, glass beads, a fire-pit cover and a cover for a standard 20 lb tank. The rating line is 4.5 from 28, but none of the 21 saved bodies is from the United Kingdom. Overseas reviewers like the heat without wood smoke and the two covers. The hose is side-mounted; one review says the line will not pass an umbrella hole if the pan sits in the centre. A glass wind guard is not in the included-components list, and outlet pressure in mbar is not stated.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A buyer who wants a hotter tabletop claim and two covers, and who will verify the fitting against a UK cylinder.
Less suitable: Anyone who needs UK review text, a centred umbrella-hole hose, or a named 37 mbar regulator.
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing claim?
40,000 BTU.
Which cylinder does the listing name?
A cover for a standard 20 lb tank, and a 10 ft hose. The tank is not stated as included. Regulator pressure is not stated. The saved review bodies are not from the United Kingdom.
Does it have a glass wind guard?
Included components are a 10 ft hose, a cover, the fire pit and glass beads. A glass wind guard is not in that list. One US review wished for glass sides because of wind.
The Onlyfire 16-inch square side-mounted pan is £149.99 with a 6.74 kW claim, glass wind guard, long hose and lava rocks in the bullets. The star line is 3.3 from three United Kingdom reviews, the whole saved sample. One buyer was happy once connected; another reported an intermittent gas connector whose pin did not fully depress the cylinder valve. Ignition is unreliable in that file: a match or lighter is needed about nine times out of ten. No cover is in included components, and outlet pressure is not stated. It is the weakest rating line among the pans here.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Only a buyer who specifically needs the side-mounted 16-inch square and will pressure-check the supplied connector.
Less suitable: Anyone who wants a stronger rating line, reliable piezo lighting, or a bottom-mounted umbrella-hole hose.
Specifications
Common questions
What heat output does the listing claim?
6.74 kW. The heating-coverage field says 100 sq ft.
What did the UK reviews say about the gas connection?
One of three UK reviews said the supplied connector was intermittent because the pin did not fully depress the cylinder valve, and the buyer replaced it. Another said the ignition needed a lighter or match 9 times out of 10.
Is a cover included?
Not in included components. The listing asks the question and does not answer it in the spec block. The size field says side mounted.
Nine amazon.co.uk outdoor gas fireplace listings were scored on a 0–100 scale. Stars are 40 points, from the star line. Review volume is 20 points, from the review count, and a rating line that reuses another ASIN’s review bodies does not earn the full band. Listing fit is 25 points, from the form, a heat claim, UK cylinder language, the kit and the stated ignition. Sentiment is 15 points, from whether the saved review text is from the United Kingdom and whether it names a serious fault. Deductions cover a missing star line, a non-UK review majority, and buying conflicts such as a hose length printed two ways. The highest score is the top pick. The highest score per pound, among rows at 50 or above, is the best value. This is not a lab test. Prices are the amazon.co.uk shelf prices on 21 October 2026.
Stars
40%The amazon.co.uk star line, up to 40 points. No star line scores 0. A star rating is not a measured patio temperature.
Review volume
20%The review count, up to 20 points. A rating line whose saved bodies are copied from another ASIN does not earn the full volume band.
Listing fit
25%Form, a heat claim in kW or BTU, UK cylinder language, the kit in the box, and a stated ignition. A named UK regulator or a 5 kg patio-tank bay scores above US 20 lb tank language.
Sentiment
15%Whether saved review bodies are from the United Kingdom, and whether they name a serious connector or ignition fault. Text that is not from the United Kingdom stays a weak signal.
Match the form first, then the fuel fitting, then the heat claim, then what is actually in the box. Prefer review text from the United Kingdom over a high star line whose saved bodies are from somewhere else, and do not treat a duplicated review file as a separate sample. A propane patio flame does not heat a whole garden and does not belong indoors.
An outdoor gas fireplace in this comparison is a propane flame for a patio. The nine amazon.co.uk listings are a tabletop pan, a portable fire bowl, or a fire pit table with a lid. You are buying a clean flame without logs or chimney smoke. It is not a room heater. A wood pit is a different category, in the [outdoor fireplace comparison](/hub/fireplaces-and-stoves/outdoor-fireplace). Form comes first. A tabletop pan needs a table you already own.
A hose sold for a US 20 lb tank is not automatically a UK patio-gas clip-on. Propane on the regulator Liquid Gas UK describes is a nominal 37 mbar. The Outland page prints 250 PSI and does not print 37 mbar.
About 3–7 kW is table ambience. About 40,000–58,000 BTU is roughly 12–17 kW at about 3,412 BTU/h per kW. That is a stronger patio flame. It is not a measured whole-garden heat radius, and it is not a lab test.
The £99.99 listing shows 4.6 from 40, the same figures as the 28-inch Onlyfire, and the saved bodies match that ASIN. They are not an independent sample for the 18-inch pan. A closed gazebo, a tent, or no cover when the unit lives outside are the other traps in this capture.
Propane for a UK patio appliance is a nominal 37 mbar on the regulator Liquid Gas UK describes, on the cylinder valve the manual names. A hose sold for a US 20 lb tank is not automatically a UK patio-gas clip-on. In this set the Outland Living Firebowl 893 and the Onlyfire FP063 speak 20 lb tank language. The Outland page also prints 250 PSI as a maximum supply pressure and names CSA, which is not UKCA and not 37 mbar.
A tabletop pan needs a table you already own. A fire pit table is the furniture, with a lid and somewhere for the cylinder. A bowl is the piece you carry. About 3–7 kW is table ambience: the 18-inch pan claims 3.2 kW, the 28-inch rectangle 6.5 kW, and the 16-inch pans 6.74 kW. About 40,000–58,000 BTU is a stronger patio flame, roughly 12–17 kW at about 3,412 BTU/h per kW, and still not whole-garden heat.
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
You want a flame at the table, not a room heater. The Onlyfire 28-inch tabletop pan is the best value at about £119.99 if you already have a sturdy table: 6.5 kW claimed, and 4.6 from 40 reviews that describe that shape. If the fire should be the furniture, the Outsunny fire pit table at about £225.99 names a 5 kg tank bay, a lid and a cover.
You want a bowl you can carry, then the site’s own fire rule. The Outland Living Firebowl 893 is the top pick at about £269.06: 10.4 kg, a cover and carry kit, and 4.8 from 17,168 reviews. The saved sample is mostly not from the United Kingdom, and the listing speaks a US 20 lb cylinder. A campsite can still say no.
Start with weight and with where the cylinder will stand. The 18-inch Onlyfire pan is listed at 5.1 kg, against 27 kg and 30.9 kg for the two fire pit tables. Its 4.6 from 40 is the same review file as the 28-inch pan, so it is not an independent sample. A lease can still forbid the flame.
The top pick is the Outland Living Firebowl 893 at about £269.06. It is a 19-inch portable propane bowl claiming 58,000 BTU, with a cover, a carry kit, a pre-attached hose and lava rock, and 4.8 from 17,168 amazon.co.uk reviews. The saved review sample is mostly not from the United Kingdom, and the listing uses US 20 lb tank language. The best value is the Onlyfire 28-inch tabletop pan at about £119.99: 4.6 from 40 reviews that describe that shape, a 6.5 kW claim, and a hose length that the bullet and one review do not agree on. No score here is a measured garden heat radius, or a claim that a propane flame is safe indoors, under a closed gazebo, or on every balcony.
Onlyfire 28-inch tabletop pan
Highest score per pound among rows at 50 or above, at about £119.99, with 4.6 from 40 reviews that describe this shape.
