Rank #10 in Best Fire Pit 2026: The Weight Column Decides
Vivo Technologies Square Fire Pit with BBQ Grill, Mesh Lid and Poker
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Vivo is the cheapest complete fire pit here at £21.24, with a cooking grill, a mesh lid and a poker — and 4.6 stars from 462 ratings, one of the strongest records in the ranking. It is 46cm square and 33cm tall.
It comes last because of a single field: the item weight is 1kg, which is £21.24 per kilogram of steel and four times what the 81cm bowl in first place costs per kilogram. The bullets call it high-quality iron with long-lasting performance; 1kg of painted steel is the honest description of what arrives.
How those 462 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.6 stars.

Questions people ask
How heavy is it?
1kg according to the item weight, which is very light for a fire pit and four times the price per kilogram of the 81cm bowl in first place.
Will it last?
Thin painted steel discolours, dents and rusts faster than a heavy bowl. At this weight and price, treat it as a season or two of use.
Can I cook on it?
Yes, it includes a cooking grill, a mesh lid and a poker, and buyers describe using it for barbecues.
Is it too small?
It is 46cm across, so it suits one or two people rather than a gathering.
Why does it rate so well?
462 ratings at 4.6 stars with 76 per cent five-star: buyers are judging it as a £21 fire pit rather than as a permanent garden feature.
How many ratings does it have?
462 at the time of collection, averaging 4.6 stars, with 76 per cent five-star and 2 per cent one-star.
