Why Sunbrella Fabric and Integrated Fire Pits are a Winning Combination
Outdoor furniture sets that incorporate both Sunbrella fabrics and a built-in fire pit offer the best of both worlds when it comes to comfort, style, and function. Here's an overview of why this type of patio furniture is so popular:

- Sunbrella fabrics are fade, stain, mold and mildew resistant. The material is designed to withstand sun exposure, rain and other outdoor conditions while maintaining its color and integrity.
- Fire pits provide warmth and ambiance for evening enjoyment of your patio. The glow and crackling sounds create a cozy, inviting atmosphere.
- Having a fire table incorporated right into your seating arrangement means you don't have to sacrifice space. The fire is right where you want it.
- The right patio set with Sunbrella cushions and a fire pit becomes a multipurpose outdoor living area. You can dine, lounge, relax and entertain.
With the right combination of durable, comfortable seating and a gorgeous fire table, your patio becomes a destination you and your guests will flock to all year long.
Shopping Considerations - What to Look For
Not all patio furniture with fire pits is made equal. As you browse options, keep the following factors in mind:
Types of Sunbrella Fabric
Sunbrella makes a few different fabrics perfect for outdoor cushions. Two top choices are:
- Sunbrella Grade-A Acrylic - Made from 100% solution-dyed acrylic, this fabric is fade, mold and mildew resistant. It's easy to clean and durable.
- Sunbrella Canvas - Made from 75% acrylic and 25% cotton, Sunbrella Canvas has a softer hand and retains its color despite sun exposure.
Both fabrics provide UV protection and are designed to withstand outdoor conditions. Choose the look and feel you prefer.
Frame Construction
The frame holding up your cushions and fire pit needs to be durable and weather-resistant. Powder coated aluminum and all-weather wicker are excellent choices. Teak wood or synthetic wood composites also age nicely outdoors.
Look for thick, sturdy construction that won't bend or warp from weather exposure and frequent use. The construction connecting your fire pit to the seating is also important.
Fire Pit Design
Fire pits come in all shapes, sizes and fuel sources. Consider:
- Shape and layout - Round, square and rectangle shapes allow visibility from multiple sides.
- Size - Dimension affects the level of heat and ambiance.
- Fuel - Gas, gel, wood or smokeless options.
- Safety features - Lid, mesh screen, auto shut-off.
Match the design to your needs. For example, wood-burning fire pits require more maintenance but provide authentic crackling.
Size, Configuration and Style
How you plan to enjoy your new patio furniture set should guide your choices. Important factors include:
- Number of people/seats needed
- Space available on your patio
- Your style - Modern, classic, rustic and more
Sectionals allow you to customize with chaise add-ons, ottomans and more. Individual seating pieces also provide flexibility.
