If you love spending time in your garden but struggle with the UK's unpredictable evenings, an outdoor gas fire pit could be exactly what you need. Fire pits are compact, stylish, and incredibly easy to use — bringing warmth and atmosphere to any outdoor space.
In this guide we compare our two premium Planika fire pits to help you choose the right one for your garden.

Gas Fire Pit vs Wood Fire Pit — What's the Difference?
Gas fire pits are far more convenient than traditional wood burning pits. There's no smoke, no ash to clean up, no need to buy logs, and you can turn them on and off instantly with the push of a button. For most UK gardens, gas is simply the better choice.
Is a Gas Fire Pit Safe?
Yes, when used correctly. All our Planika fire pits come with built-in safety sensors and are designed for outdoor use. Always ensure the fire pit is placed on a stable, non-flammable surface and never leave it unattended when lit.
