Has anyone tried additing the glass on top of the lava rock? Would that look stupid?

We did. Used the lava rock as filler. You can't see the lava rock at this point. Make sure you order what you need and a bit more. Can always return. We did multiple orders and no 2 were alike!

I use this in a gas firepit with out logs that came with lava rock. I took the lava rock out and put the blue glass in - it works great I really like it. It's a really great effect I live in Las Vegas and I love the propane/water at the pepper mill lounge so I was going for that- hope this helps.

We changed the lava rock in our outdoor fire pit to fireglass. I would recommend checking with the manufacturer of your fire pit.

That's what we did with ours. It has a door in it that you may put a bottle of propane inside to hide it. The glass stone they sell for in these fire pits looks nice in them when they're lit. But -- they do require a lot of stone, so if you go this way, be sure to buy enough.

If I were you, I would definitely call the Powell company to be sure. I love the top myself, but your idea of switching it out for a granite counter top would make this island even more beautiful! Postyour decision, I may consider doing this in the future as well.

I really don't see why you couldn't mix the two. It would probably give you a nice effect without over-doing the sparkle from the glass.

I laid pebble rock first over the fire ring. Then laid about 30 lbs of glass over that and I ordered an extra 10lb bag and used part of that to cover any areas where it's not completely covering pebble rock. Hope that helps!

I move the glass pieces away from the ignitor when I light it (mentioned in the manual). I don't like leaving the ignitor exposed because it looks terrible. I keep a long handled screw driver inside the unit that I use to push glass pieces back over the ignitor. Someone mentioned that you don't have to do this with lava rocks which I may test.

Yes I bought the blue fire glass and used that instead of the lava rock that it came with - it turned out awesome!

Yes, it should. When I first got it, it took a couple of hours to get started. It also took awhile when out of use for several days. But generally the lava should flow while the light is on.

I don't know. Never had lava rocks. Maybe some one else will be able to answer. We really like our fire pit.

I fill the bottom with an inexpensive material like lava rock and then top it with the glass

There is no decorative glass, it comes with fake rocks. They are pretty big, like the size of your fist, and I think there were 3 bags of rocks. (At least in ours) hope this helps :)

The top side is textured. I think you could just flip it over if you preferred the smooth side. The lazy Susan parts are separate from the glass.

I think you could? I bought this set and simply added more lava rock. It is the same set up as the others so I don't see why not?

I doubt it...there is a metal tube in the shape of a circle that the lava rock surrounds...if it were wood the gas would be right up against it. I'm not sure how that would work with any propane/wood combination, but I don't know a lot about it. Maybe someone else has a better idea :)
