I don't write reviews but I've had very poor results with this fire pit and felt it was necessary to share. I've had several fire pits and non gave me issues like this one. It came cracked which I overlooked. Then it started chipping less than 30 days into having it. I could've overlooked both of those but now I can get it to stay lit. It started off finicky and gradually got to the point where I can't keep it lit. The directions to light it are clear unfortunately they're irrelevant. As soon as I let go of the priming it cuts out and I've tried EVERYTHING. It managed to last just beyond 30 days so now I'm stuck with it. Also when it was working it burned through propane faster than I've ever seen before when on medium flame. Maybe I just got a dud but beware.
