Reported heat outputs vary widely. Listings show very low outputs for some tabletop units (examples in the sources include a value as low as 100 BTU or listings showing 15,000 BTU) up to roughly 50,000–55,000 BTU for full-sized tables. Because source values can be inconsistent, always check the specific product specification for the exact BTU rating.
Most models include a dedicated ignition system (commonly push-button or knob ignition) and adjustable flame controls. Product listings frequently specify "push-button" or "knob" ignition alongside an "adjustable flame" or variable flame control.
Propane fire tables use a variety of materials: durable plastics (HDPE) for some tops, metal frames such as iron, steel or stainless steel, cast-iron components, and heavier surfaced panels like terrazzo. Material choices affect durability and appearance—review listings for material details.
Sizes span from very compact tabletop units (examples in the sources include pieces around 4 inches high and 6.5 inches wide) up to full-sized and dining-height fire tables. Full-sized models are often in the range of about 42–47 inches high or wide, and some extend to roughly 52 inches long. In short: options range from small tabletop pieces to large dining-height tables—check the product dimensions for the exact size.
Available details list heat coverage from about a 2.5-foot radius for smaller tabletop units up to about a 5-foot radius for larger models. Actual warmth and coverage will depend on the table’s BTU output and outdoor conditions.
Common included accessories are lava rocks or glass stones, protective covers, and sometimes a tank seat or lid. Some listings also mention a wind or glass guard and a bag of stones. Inclusion varies by model—check the product listing for exact accessories.
