The Owner's Insights on the Coronado
I sell a lot of round fire bowls, and they are lovely. This is the one I point people to when the patio is a rectangle, which most patios are. The Coronado is a rectangular fire pit table, 28 inches deep at every length, so it runs along a wall or a deck edge instead of demanding open ground on all four sides.
The thing you notice in person is the lip. There is a flat steel rim around the burn area wide enough to actually set a drink on, and it stays cool enough to use while the fire is going. That is the whole difference between a fire pit and a fire pit table.
Who I would steer away from it: anyone running propane who has nowhere to hide a tank. This model does not store one inside the base. The tank sits outside the table and your guests will see it. If that matters to you, say so when you call and I will point you at something that hides it.
Why You'll Love the Coronado
-
A usable rim, not just a fire. Drinks, plates and phones have somewhere to go, so nobody is balancing a plate on their knees at 10pm.
-
28 inches deep at every size. It tucks along a patio edge or a wall, which is where a round table simply will not sit.
-
304 stainless burner and fire pan. The parts that live in the flame are the parts that usually fail first. These are the good stainless.
-
Five ignitions, two of them flame sensing. If guests light it themselves, the gas shuts off on its own when the flame blows out.
-
Lava rock and the hose come in the box. No second order, no discovering at install that you are short a fitting.
-
Delivery is genuinely included. No freight invoice lands after you have already paid.
Why You Should Consider The Outdoor Plus
The Outdoor Plus hand-builds these in Ontario, California, and publishes a current product catalog with real per-size specifications rather than marketing dimensions. The burner and the pan are 304 stainless throughout. Their certified ignitions are LC and CSA listed, which is what an inspector asks for on a permitted gas install. On a property you rent out, that paperwork is worth more than it sounds.
How Big a Rectangular Fire Pit Table Do You Need?
Measure the long run of your patio, not a circle. The 48 inch seats four comfortably along the two long sides. The 60 inch takes six. The 72 inch takes eight and wants a genuinely open run, because people have to get past both ends.
Allow about three feet from the table edge to the back of a chair. On a rectangle the pinch point is always the ends, which is where somebody puts a side table and ruins the walking route.
If you are between two sizes, the smaller one usually looks better. A table that leaves room around it reads as designed. Call or text 1 800 914 0074 or 352 274 6387 and we will size it with you before you order. Texting is fine.
Natural Gas or Propane, and Where the Tank Goes
Natural gas means a line run out to the table by a licensed plumber, and then you never think about fuel again. Propane means a 20 lb tank, and on this model that tank does not fit inside the base.
That is worth reading twice if you are buying a rectangular fire pit table for propane. The Coronado cannot store the tank. You will need a tank beside it, or an enclosure you build, or a line run under the patio to a tank sited somewhere out of sight.
On a rental, the second thing to plan is who checks the tank. A guest will not message you to say it ran out on their second night. They will put it in the review. Build a tank check into the turnover list and keep a full spare on the property.
Ignition: Which One for a Property Guests Use
Match Lit is the cheapest and the simplest, and it is the right pick if you are the one lighting it. You hold a match at the burner and turn a key valve.
Match Lit with Flame Sense adds an automatic gas shut-off if the flame goes out, and it is LC certified. Flame Sense with Spark adds a push button. The 12V and 110V electronic systems light it from a switch or a remote, and the 110V is CSA certified.
For a property guests operate without you there, buy a flame-sensing option. Wind puts a flame out on an open table like this, and the difference between a system that notices and one that does not is gas pooling on your patio.

Lava rock is included, fire glass is not
The table arrives with lava rock, which works and looks fine. Fire glass is the upgrade most people want once they see it lit, and the table is not supplied with it.
Budget 50 lbs on the 48 and 60 inch and 75 lbs on the 72. A glass wind guard is the other accessory worth having on a table this open, because an unguarded flame on a breezy patio spends the evening lying sideways.
Honest About Lead Time
These are built to order in your size, finish and fuel, so nothing is pulled off a shelf. Production has been averaging 3 to 4 weeks, then it goes on a truck. Figure four to six weeks from your order to your patio.
That is an average, not a promise. The factory's backlog moves through the season, and fire tables get busy from September onward. Call or text 1 800 914 0074 or 352 274 6387 and we will give you today's real number rather than the one that is easier to sell.
For Hotels, Resorts and Businesses
Furnishing a boutique hotel, resort or other business? This fire feature suits a terrace, pool deck or courtyard, and The Outdoor Plus delivers to hotel loading docks. It is made to order, so it can't be returned once it goes into production.
The warranty is different for commercial installations. The burner ring and burner bars keep the lifetime warranty. The electronics, gas valves and pilot assembly are covered for 6 months (1 year for a home), and the stainless steel and aluminum pans for 1 year (5 years for a home). Read The Outdoor Plus warranty before you order, and ask us if your project needs something different.
Planning more than one fire feature, or a whole terrace? Call or text 1 800 914 0074 or 352 274 6387, or email sales@optimaloutdooroasis.com, and we will help you choose sizes and finishes. Our guide to hotel fire pits covers sizing, certification and what an inspector will ask about.
Delivery, Site Prep and Installation
Delivery is included in the price. No freight bill afterwards and no surprise at checkout. That is genuinely unusual on a freight item this size and it is one of the reasons we carry this brand.
It still arrives by semi truck at the curb, not carried into your yard. The carrier calls to book a window and somebody has to be there to meet it and sign. Look the crate over before you sign, because freight damage can only be put right if it is noted on the paperwork at the time.
The table needs a level base. Concrete or solid pavers. At 220 lbs on the 72 inch, an unlevel pad shows immediately in the flame and in the way the rim sits.
Gas connection is a licensed job. Clearances and local code apply, and on a rental the certificate matters as much as the work. We can point you at qualified installers if you do not have someone.
Who this is not for
Anyone who needs it next week. Anyone who wants to move it around the yard, because 175 lbs is a two-person lift at the lightest. Anyone running propane with nowhere to put the tank. And anyone who wants a round table, because this one is a rectangle at every size.
Because each table is built to your order, we cannot take it back once it goes into production. Spend a minute on the size, the finish and the fuel. If you are not sure, call 1 800 914 0074 or 352 274 6387 and we will work through it with you. We would far rather answer the question first.
Bigger sizes and the rest of the range
This page covers the 48, 60 and 72 inch. For estates and event spaces there is the Coronado in 84, 96 and 108 inch, though note those sizes ship back of truck and need a forklift on site.
If the shape is the open question, the rectangular fire pit tables sit alongside round and square options, and the full Outdoor Plus range compares the finishes, fuels and ignitions in one place.
