Six of the cheapest fire pits you can buy from £21 in time for the heatwave
OUTDOOR fire pits help to take the edge off of those chilly evenings so you can cosy up and relax in your garden even after the sun's gone down.
We've rounded up the best budget-friendly fire pits to help you enjoy your summer evenings outside, without forking out a fortune.
If you're on the hunt to heat things up a bit, make sure you're shopping for the right sized fire pit.
Depending on the amount of outdoor space available to you, you may want to opt for a portable fire pit, or one that's collapsible so you can store it away.
It's also important to note that fire pits must be placed on an inflammable surface, like stone or tile - so avoid decking at all costs.
Without further ado, here's the most affordable fire pits we found on the market.
