Why Choose a Fire Pit Table?

Fire pit tables combine the visual appeal of a flame feature with the functionality of outdoor furniture. Compared to standalone fire pits, they offer:

  • Dual-purpose use — warmth + table space
  • Cleaner burning with propane or natural gas
  • Safe, controlled flames ideal for families and deck use
  • Four-season usability for patios, porches, & outdoor kitchens

Fuel Types: Propane vs Natural Gas

Most modern fire pit tables run on propane or natural gas.

Propane Fire Pit Tables

Propane models are the most popular for residential patios. Benefits include:

  • Portable and easy to place
  • Attractive hidden-tank designs
  • Clean, adjustable flame

All Napoleon Patioflame models carried by DDR BBQ Supply are propane-ready.

Natural Gas Fire Pit Tables

Natural gas is ideal for built-in outdoor kitchens or stationary patio setups.

Many Napoleon models can be professionally converted to natural gas if your space requires it.

Choosing the Right Shape: Square, Round, or Rectangle?

Shape determines both visual style and how people gather around the table.

Square Fire Pit Tables

Balanced and great for small-to-medium patios.

Round Fire Pit Tables

Great for conversational seating and curved furniture layouts.

Rectangle Fire Pit Tables

The most versatile shape—ideal for sectionals, dining seating, and longer outdoor layouts.

Table Height Options

Fire pit tables come in three common heights:

  • Coffee-table height (most common) — ideal for lounging
  • Dining height — perfect for outdoor meals
  • Counter/bar height — great for entertaining

The Napoleon Patioflame collection focuses on versatile coffee-table heights that pair seamlessly with outdoor lounges, sectionals, and deep-seat furniture.

Materials That Matter

Durability is everything when buying a fire pit table. Napoleon’s premium construction includes:

  • Durable aluminum bodies that resist rust and fading
  • High-quality table tops designed for year-round weather
  • Stainless steel burners for clean, consistent flames

Must-Have Features for Any Fire Pit Table

  • Hidden propane tank (select models)
  • High BTU output for comfortable warmth
  • Adjustable flame control
  • Glass wind guards for windy patios
  • Durable lid to convert into a full table
