A friend of mine has this patio stove, and it is small enough to place on a non combustable deck. He has this stove under a tall roof in case it rains..... so nice!
I believe that he usually uses charcoal briquettes, just for the ease of starting and it is a small stove, if the charcoal needs a few more it's so easy to just add a handful!
I need to snap a photo at night, it really is impressive!!
Just the perfect touch for summer evenings!!!
