I have a gas fireplace with no logs so I am unfamiliar with that kind so I don't know how deep your is . I had to buy two bags of ten pounds each , at about 3 in. deep and my bowel is about 18 x 18 . I do love the effect it has on the fire and love to sit by it just look at the glass sparkle . It is a bit expensive but I do like it . Hope this helps .

I actually thought the same thing with it being 10 pounds. I bought one bag thinking it would be enough only to end up buying another bag. So I would say 2 bags worked for my fireace in order to cover all areas nicely. I also have a gas fire place and took my logs and kept my rack in place. I spread the rocks then put back in my logs. The glass is beautiful and adds a very nice touch to the fireplace and gets many compliments when guest come over. I hope this help.

No you can't, there are many how to's and videos online. You need to do this in gradients. Use lava rock on the bottom below the gas tubes, and then use the decorative fire glass on top of the gas tubes. 10 lbs is not alot, I have a 18x6 pit and it uses about 6lbs of glass.

It depends on the amount of space or how deep of an area you're trying to fill. I would suggest going to this website for most of your answers. http://www.moderustic.com

Yes, you can take out the rack and logs and just place the glass in there. Although, depending on your unit...as with mine I had to make sure the glass didn't cover the ignite area. I usually have to often remove some stray piece of glass with some pliers every once in awhile.

The propane tank lasts for quite a while. We got our outdoor fireplace at Christmas and use it occasionally. We still have a mostly full tank of gas.

We did the interior of one fireplace and had some left over. Not sure if it will cover a second fireplace or not. By the way, it's been in several months now and looks great.

A great pit for the money, I burn treated wood, branches dura flames etc.....just recommend a cover. I burn 2 to 3 times a week and still standing

We have only done SMore's on it -- we had logs in it but they were small -- not sure you can grill on it unless you used charcoal or really small logs as the grill would not fit over larger logs -- not really that deep

The model is in the neighborhood of four feet long and about two feet along the sides. It does not sit all that high maybe like a foot and a half. The question really is how long and deep your fire place cut out is. I would measure it and then pay closer to attention the dimensions of the product I am just estimating here.

It depends on how wide you want to make the bottom protection. At the moment I dont use any, I custom built a grate like in a fireplace and slid it through the door to keep everything off the bottom. There does seem to be some problems with air flow. I keep the vent open and the bung hole open, put a small fan a foot or so away to put a "gentle breeze" through the vents. As far as the bricks go, I would estimate 4 or 5 wide and the length of the barrel (about 6 long) should be enough. Just one layer thick.

2.3/4" Couple tips before you cook with it or use it and I don't recommend using it in and enclosed area. It's draws terribly and it smoked us out of our shed. Have at least 6 fires and remove paint from the cooking tubes. After ours was used for a whole season we took all remaining paint off and re painted with a good name brand stove paint. You want bare metal on any cook surface. We cooked all our meals on it during a 10 day winter camp and it performed fine.We had to have door remounted after stove was dropped off truck but I can see getting 7-10 years from it easily.Hoped this helped 2.3/4" Couple tips before you cook with it or use it and I don't recommend using it in and enclosed area.

It is hard for me to answer this other than the actual dimensions of the unit. I have a fireplace hearth on one side which preventsit from being pushed all the way to the back. I am sure if you have a normal corner for it there would be little wasted space.Lookingat the measurements 33"front-46"center-19" sides (along wall) 20"deep-19"back.If you measure along the side to the back to forman angle for both side to meet it is another 10" to the center only. It seems the wasted space would be minimal, just enough for power cords and speaker wires. All I can say is we are happy with this unit, the fold down construction makes it a snap to assemble, it is most attractive, and functional. Hope this is helpful.

Size of the top was an issue for me too. I suggest that you get some cardboard and a tape measure and create a mock up of the fireplace. This is the only way to be sure. Too many variables to say yes for sure.

I didn't actually time the burn but it is shorter than firewood but longer than I had anticipated. I mix woodchips/saw dust with shredded paper to about a 50/50 mix and I haven't noticed any extra or unwanted smoke. I want to try and make enough bricks this spring and summer to get me through next winter. If you don't mind a little work then it's worth it, FYI I fill up a 50 gallon trashcan with my mix and it usually makes about 32 bricks.

The actual dimension is very close to the description which 43" tall and 15" wide. It is really not that wide. As a matter of fact, I think the area where you put the logs is a little small. The mouth is not wide enough to stuff big logs in. In addition, I personally think it is a little too short. The reason is smoke gets to your eyes when you stand up. One last thing I would say is you have to keep on opening/closing the cap on the top. If you close it for too long, fire would come out from the mouth which may burn you if you are too close. Then if you open the cap for too long, all the smoke is shooting out. Other than that, I am pretty happy with this product. I hope this helps.

I purchased this for a temporary fire pit; portability. It was worth it for that. I bought a cover for the propane tank. If you are using this on a deck, you will be able to hide everything.

I sweep it myself.. dust baby dust. The chimney used to look like black shiny tar. After using this stuff nothing in the chimney, amazing !! I highly recommend it. The stove now puts out twice the heat and no more smoke out the door. I burn 24/7, it heats my whole shop 5600 sq ft. I burn 30-35 cords a season. I sweep it 3-4 times between oct-march.

it could burn either wood or charcoal it has a grate at the bottom to put wood on and a grate you can add to the top to cook on. It's about 20 1/2 inches square at the top and tapers down to about 15 inches wide at the bottom and it's about 7 inches deep. It won't hold huge logs but it will do a nice job for a small patio area and we love that it converts to a table when the pit is not in use. It really is quite nice!

Any fire pit will put out warmth with enough wood burning, on mine I put 5 to 6 18" logs for fire that will radiate heat about 3 feet around this fire pit. More than adequate.

It's a gas smoker. You just adjust the gas from the knob on the front or adjust the vent on the top back side. I can pretty easily maintain 220-245 in mild weather. It's a little harder to keep it that low when it's really hot out though. Also you need to open the door every few hours to restock the wood chunks/chips.
