Customer Reviews for Hampton Bay Briarglen Fire Ball with Tree Branches

Ver y good

Looks awesome when innuse. Decent size, easy assembly. However, poker is horrible. Too short. May as well use a Steak Knife to move wood around. If you purchase this product, plan on finding a LONGER poker so you don't get burned.

Love the durability Love the color Love the size Love the quality Love the price

Very nice product for the space we have for a fire. Assembly was fairly easy, i do suggest reversing the top screw so that it does not scratch the door.

Easy to assemble and as beautiful as the picture.

A little challenging to put together but looks nice after figuring it out.

Not so easy to assemble but definitely worth it!! It’s beautiful when a fires going in it. It’s even cool looking with no fire

I love it! My daughter had a teen party we ended the party with the firepit. It looks beautiful with the fire inside.

Was a little complicated to put together but it was worth it!!

I put it together by my self and im 68. The cover I bought that was suppose to fit was to short so i added 18 inches of similar fabric in the middle and it fits great now. Its easy to use and looks great!!!! It was shipped quickly and arrived in good condition.

This is quite beautiful. Much larger than I thought it would be and I do love the round globe look. Very different in shape and also design. Like the tree branch art work incorporated into the screens. It wasn’t difficult to assemble but some holes didn’t line up exactly which took some strength to make it work. I do wish the directions for installing the moving screen was a bit clearer. Some guess work involved with trial and error. But overall, I really do like it and think it complements my patio and will get a lot of use.

All of my friends have added this to their Christmas wish list. It is a work of functional art, It is well designed, heavy weight material and should last a really long time. Easy to assemble. Once together 1/2 of the top rolls back into the other side for easy access to tray.. Removable handled porcelain fire tray for cleaning out ashes easily. Is is like a sculpture as it sits in the back yard on it's concrete blocks. I will order the custom cover to protect it but it is so pretty I really hate to cover it. The mesh that is integrated into top half is a great safety feature. Feel like you have more control over embers. Have not seen a more beautiful fire pit. It is about 33" x 33" and makes quite a beautiful statement to my backyard.

Assembly on this fire ball was a really tedious and took me much longer than I expected. Once I was finished, it was worth it. The fire ball comes with about 40 small bolts and hexnuts. All you need is a wrench and Philips head screwdriver. You have to fit the mesh panels together and then secure them with the bolts. After that you have to secure the panels into the ring. Lining up some of the holes was a little challenging. Once it is complete it looks very nice and is very easy to use. Comes with a nice tool to open and close the lid while in use.

I bought 2 of these, the first one rusted and fell apart in less than a year. The second one I bought I sprayed it with several coats of the highest temperature paint that I could find when it was new and it still rusted out and fell apart in about a year!

Instructions are very bad, Hampton Bay needs to put more effort in helping customers in putting their products together. I will think twice about buying another Hampton Bay Item.

I bought it for my husband’s birthday. He loves it. It took me 3.5 hours by myself. I believe there were over 43 screws to assemble. I did it by myself.?

Easy to assemble, looks amazing when fires going.

Nice little fire ball. Usually keep a fire pit to burn all the limbs that fall in the yard. went out and bought more wood to burn in it.

Easy assembly and well made! Im planning on buying a replacement bowl for the future. Gonna have this one a long time. Classy!

We have enjoyed several nights around the fire pit. It’s a great addition to our mountain home.

Very happy with my fire ball. I have received many compliments.

After 3 years the mesh is disintegrating and needs to be replaced

easy to setup and enjoyable. I like the metal mesh which prevents larger ash from flying.. 1 good year, then a leg rusted and fell apart. Looks like others have had the issue. They don't sell replacement parts. Jimmy rig or move on i guess. still giving 3 stars as it seems built well. i know we run ours hot .... the other legs are separating as well.

Great fire pit....Best one so far....

I bought this in April 2021 for $150. Shocked that its price is set over $300. That said, I’ve kept it cover and have spray painted every spring. No rust or issues for me so far.

Overall disappointed. Got this firepit in mid 2021. It's small and cannot hold enuff wood and won't generate enough radiant heat unless pretty close to it. The top cannot come off so you must load the wood thru one side. Also hard to maneuver logs with access from only 1 side. A couple of times the top got stuck and wouldnt open. Finally one of the lega broke off making it unusable. I saw a question below that said the leg broke off asking for replacement but cannot be replaced.
