Product Description
Unlike traditional patio heaters, the mesmerizing column of flames produces warmth across its entire length keeping the heat closer to you while you're sitting rather than heating the area above your head. The unique pyramid design is like a piece of art for your yard. It combines form with functionality and will accent any patio with its beautiful lines. The pagoda shaped top spreads a diamond pattern of warm fire light all across your patio. The heart of this heater is a 4-feet tall ceramic glass tube. By simply turning the adjustment knob you can raise a column of flames that safety dances behind the mesh panels. Don't let its good looks fool you, this heater's all metal construction is tough enough to withstand whatever mother nature can throw at it. The seamless stainless steel door on the front of the heater conceals the temperature controls, solid state push button igniter, and a full sized 20-pound propane tank. It will run about 10 hours on the highest heat setting with full tank of propane, but on its lower settings it will run substantially longer. It is designed for safety and ease of use. Lighting it couldn't be easier, just turn the knob to the light position, push the igniter to start the pilot, than choose your heat setting. It features an automatic safety tip-over valve that shuts the propane off in the event the heater is ever knocked over. The pyramid design has the added advantage of being better suited for windy areas, with its wide heavy base, small reflector cap and stream line grill it tends to be much more stable in higher winds than heaters with large reflectors on top. It stands an impressive 89-inch tall over all, The burner and 50'' ceramic glass tube emits 34,000 BTUs capable of warming an area up to a 15-feet diameter. It's backed with a full 2 year residential warranty and a 1 year commercial warranty for peace of mind. Whether it's for your home or business be sure to love this beautiful heater.

I got it in my head that I needed a pair of these for an outdoor party. I had seen a similar heater at a local restaurant, but that brand was 1600.00 per copy. I shopped the local patio and hardware stores and found, for 680.00 ea., units similar to these with the difference being that they came with wheels and a cover. I figured for the price I could do without and ordered two of these, plus I wanted them in black, which was not an option elsewhere.
Amazon covered the shipping on these beasts, and they took only a week to get across the country. The boxes were both really beat up- the ups guy apologized and asked if i wanted to refuse shipment. Knowing there was a big glass tube inside I was taking a chance, but I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the packing job- everything was fine inside. Assembly was straightforward and a screwdriver was included. All of the screws are identical so there can be no confusion there- nice!
The heaters perform as expected. After assembly it took about thirty seconds to get the propane up to the pilot ignitor and after that the standing pilot worked fine. They put out a nice warm light and the grills wont get hot enough to burn curious fingers so you don't have to worry about your kids being burned.
These are NOT killer heaters like the big umbrella models so don't expect to run them at low settings and stay warm. Figure a twelve foot diameter footprint of moderate warmth.
They are beautiful when lit or not and easily moved after removing the propane tank.
Update-
I saw similar units at Costco today for 199.00. The build quality isn't nearly a good as these. The uprights are in three sections instead of two and the fit of the parts is sloppy. The finish on the panels and grills is also noticeably poorer. Weird chimney at top too.

Bought one of these at the local Orchard Supply Hardware store. Assembly was very easy.
We lit it and it looked fabulous. The problem is, it didn't do a very good job as a HEATER. If you stand really close to it you can feel it. We ran it on the highest setting for 30 minutes and it never got much better. Too bad, because I really liked the look of the thing. Perhaps if they put some baffles inside the tube to slow down the heat just shooting up and out the stack, it would work better.
Wait a bit and see it they improve it.

We got this heater thinking it would be a pretty to look at heater. It is pretty to look at, and works as promised. I put it together myself in a couple of hours, and the instructions were good. But its pretty design keeps it from providing a feeling of heat farther than 1 foot from the unit, with most of the heat going out the top.
We also just couldn't shake the feeling of waste as we watched the propane burning off as it rose up the center glass tube, reminding us of oil refinery flares. We sent it back.
