Solid Base for My Fire Pit!

I've been looking for a sturdy frame for my fire pit griddle, and this 24" BBQ Base Rim is perfect. The powder-coated steel feels super durable, and it holds my heavy cast iron griddle without any wobble. Setup was a breeze, and it really elevates my campfire cooking experience.

Andrew K.★★★☆☆May 19, 2021
Decent, but a bit pricey

This rim does the job, providing good support for my grill insert over the fire. The powder coating seems robust, but for a 24-inch steel ring, I felt the $78 price tag was a little steep. It's functional, but not a mind-blowing value.

Gary K.★★★★★February 3, 2019
Perfect for Open Flame Cooking

This Star BBQ base rim is exactly what I needed for my backyard fire pit. It's incredibly strong and stable, making it safe to cook directly over the flames. I've used it with a griddle and a grill grate, and it holds up perfectly every time. Highly recommend for any outdoor cooking enthusiast!

Deborah J.★★★★★February 11, 2016
Heavy-Duty and Reliable Support

As a contractor, I appreciate well-built products, and this 24" BBQ base rim fits the bill. The heavy-duty steel construction is evident, and the powder coating looks like it will last through many seasons of outdoor use. It provides rock-solid support for my various cooking surfaces over the fire.

Nancy V.★★★★☆December 29, 2022
Great for Campfire Grilling

This rim has made my campfire grilling so much easier. It's very stable and the 24-inch size is just right for my standard grates. My only minor gripe is that I wish it came with some kind of adjustable height option, but for a fixed base, it's excellent quality.

Will the Sunstone® Star BBQ 24" BBQ Base Rim fit my specific fire pit insert, or is it only for Sunstone brand inserts?Asked by Sunstone Support Team

Always double-check your insert's dimensions against the rim's inner diameter for the best fit.
