Description
The StarBBQ 48" Smokeless Fire Pit Insert (STARBBQ-48SFPR) is sized for large outdoor spaces. It gives hotter, clearer flames with little visible smoke, and its raised base lets primary airflow reach the fire for better combustion.
It measures 55-1/2" diameter x 11-1/4" H, needs a 50" diameter x 13" H cut-out and weighs about 65 lbs. The insert is cold-rolled steel with a high-temperature powder-coat finish. It drops into standard stacked-stone fire pits or retaining wall blocks, and the 4-piece flat pack assembles in under 10 minutes without special tools.
It burns charcoal or wood, and you can add Post-Mount Swivel Grillers later if you want to cook over the fire. See our warranty page for coverage.

Customer reviews
About our reviews: they come from verified direct customers and from our authorized dealer network, including Home Depot, Lowe's, Amazon and other Sunstone dealers.
Huge improvement for our backyard. We used to get smoked out every time we had a fire and now we can just sit and enjoy it. The big size is great when we have people over and it feels really solid.
It really is smokeless, which is great. Fits our custom fire pit well, but getting it perfectly level took more fiddling than I expected. Once it's in, the clean burn is worth the effort.
Seriously impressed with this 48 inch insert. We have people over a lot and not dodging smoke all night is a big deal. Puts out good heat and the flame looks nice and even.
Does exactly what it says, the fire pit is way cleaner now. Feels heavy duty and well made. Only hesitation was the price, but for how well it works I think it was worth it.
Finally got this installed and what a difference. No more moving chairs around to get out of the smoke, just a nice warm fire. It's the centerpiece of the patio now and everyone loves it.
