In this guide, we are going to introduce you to some of the top wicker fire pit tables that are on the market.

What Makes Wicker a Great Choice for a Wicker Fire Pit Table?

Here are a few reasons to get a fire table that features a wicker base:
Wicker is strong, but helps keep the overall product weight low. The woven structure of wicker makes it sturdy, creating the perfect combination of style and robustness.
- Wicker furniture is a classic option for a patio or wooden deck, and looks great with a wide range of outdoor decor.
- If you go with resin wicker made of HDPE, you will have a product that not only features durable materials, but also is resistant to humidity, UV light, and moisture. Such a fire pit table can stand the test of time, weathering all the outdoors throws at it.
- HDPE resin wicker is also recyclable, which helps to reduce pollution and waste.
- Wicker offers pleasing color variations.
- When handcrafting is involved in wicker production, there is an extra level of quality control since each piece is being checked as it is being manufactured.
What Features Should You Look for in a Quality Wicker Fire Table?
The same basic features that are important in any other fire table are important when you are shopping for a wicker fire pit table. These include:
- Fuel type: Almost all fire tables are designed to be used with a propane tank. But if you want a natural gas fire pit table, you can get one that is compatible with a natural gas conversion kit. You can then hook up to a gas line or use a propane gas tank. Learn more about natural gas fire tables.
- Heat output and BTU: Check the BTU/HR for a given fire table to learn its heat output. A higher BTU means a higher flame and more warmth. For most climates, 20,000-50,000 BTU/HR is ideal. Only in higher altitudes might you need a higher BTU/HR.
- Materials and construction: Look for a beautiful wicker design with hand-woven resin and an aluminum or steel frame featuring an even application of protective coating. A stainless steel burner pan and tempered glass table top will provide you with a lovely flame profile and solid performance. Although there are other quality table top materials on the market, they do not offer the reflective depth of tempered glass.
- Safety; Make sure you are purchasing a CSA-certified fire table that meets rigorous safety standards.
- Accessories: You can enhance your wicker fire table with optional accessories such as a cover, lid, or wind guard. Check to see what accessories are available for the table you are thinking of purchasing.

50,000 BTU/HR heat output makes this product ideal for most locations, even colder climates. In fact, you do not necessarily want a higher BTU fire pit unless you are at a high altitude, because it can be harder to control a flame that burns too hot or high. For most users, 50,000 BTU/HR will be just right. By turning a knob, you can adjust the flame to your liking.
With auto-spark piezo ignition, it is fast and easy to turn your fire table on, and there is no need to light a match.
Your purchase of the Outland Living Rectangular Wicker Fire Table includes 10 lbs of Arctic Ice decorative glass rocks, a pre-attached 3’ hose, and a regulator.

3. Leatherwood Resort Aluminum/Wicker Propane Fire Pit Table
If you are looking for a round wicker fire table, the Leatherwood Resort Aluminum/Wicker Propane Fire Pit Table is one to consider. While this fire table is expensive, it does feature a lovely design.
- Measures 25'' H x 50'' W x 50'' D and weighs 80 lbs.
- Aluminum and wicker.
- Fuel: propane.
- 60,000 BTU/HR.
Why Consider This Fire Table?
There are a not a lot of wicker round fire tables on the market, and this appears to be one of the higher-quality options out there. The visual design of the table is striking. You can hide a propane tank inside, and can set it up to use with natural gas instead if that is what you want.
Keep in Mind
Technically, this is a fire pit with a table built around it. The surface of the table isn’t tempered glass, so it doesn’t reflect the flames in the same dazzling way the Outland Living fire tables do.
Also, the Leatherwood Resort Aluminum/Wicker Propane Fire Pit Table sells in a much higher price range than the Outland Living fire tables, despite featuring similar functionality. So, while it may be a nice purchase in the upper price bracket, it doesn’t offer the same bang for your buck.
