How to Choose the Best Chiminea for Your Outdoor Living Space

A chiminea is a wonderful addition to any outdoor living space since it is more durable than a fireplace, and produces a focused, controlled flame. Look for models made of metal to resist corrosion and withstand high temperatures.

Be sure that the model you choose includes a log grate and a poker to ensure safe handling. Ideally, the grate must be removable so you can manage the fire without worrying about burning your fingers.

1. Terrain chiminea garden Angled Obesisk

This angled obelisk chiminea from Terrain is currently $33 off for a limited period and provides the perfect accent to any backyard. It's made of weather-resistant steel, a heat-resistant metal that develops a cool rusty patina over time. It's light enough to be easily carried around, and includes a grilling grate so you can cook your favorite burgers and take pleasure in the crackling flames at the same time.

This chiminea, although not as versatile as the top pick but it is a great choice for adding warmth and ambience to your backyard. The angled design isn't just visually appealing and attractive, but it also draws fresh air to keep the fire going. Additionally, it has an easy latch which opens the mouth for easy access to place logs in it and closes it when you're finished.

As with any outdoor wood-burning fireplace pit, it's essential to clean up the ashes regularly and dust your chiminea to ensure safety and longevity. You should also apply a coat of paint to metal chimineas by using high-heat paint specifically designed for grills or fireplaces; this will help ward off rust and prolong the lifespan of your investment.

You should ensure that the chimney is clear of obstructions, in addition to cleaning it out. A metal chiminea barbecue needs a rain cap. This will shield it from heavy rain, which could cause water to splash onto the chimney and possibly start the fire. It is important to store your metal chiminea in a location that is dry during the winter.

Cast iron chimineas tend to be more expensive, but they're extremely durable and robust. They're also easy to maintain. They're less likely to be rusty than steel, and tend to develop a beautiful natural patina over time. They can be very heavy however, so you'll need to have an able back or assistance moving it on your deck or patio.

Alternatively, you can go for a gas-burning chiminea, if you don't want to carry around huge piles of wood. Many of these models have a tank built-in for propane gas, or can be connected to your natural gas line. Some, like our top model from the Blue Rooster Company, even come with a grill grate and fire chiminea poker, so you can cook your food with your chiminea.
