I love using the firepits but since swapping from natural grass to artificial grass I have been using them on the patio but that meant the smoke was closer to the house. This new round fire pit mat has meant that we can have the fires down the end of the garden again and not worry about the heat from the fire pit heating the astroturf. I have to say I was sceptical to start with and I checked a few times if it was heating up underneath but it was still cool, at best at the end it was warm but much cooler than on a summers day.
The mat is easy to clean with a brush and some water, it is easy to store away you can just fold it up and it can go away with the logs or the fire pit.
I used my fire pit during the summer when the grass was dry. My brain didn’t compute that dry grass and high heat equals fire… Yes, I set fire to my garden. After very quickly turning the hosepipe on, the fire was out but I was left thinking about how to prevent it happening again. Then I saw this round fire pit mat and knew it was the answer. This mat is made of a heat resistant material and will catch any sparks that drift down. It will prevent dry grass catching fire as well as decking. I would say that if you are going to use a fire pit, as well as having a means to extinguish it, you really need a fire pit mat to be safe. I’m really pleased with the mat I received and know it help keep my family safe.
This is a handy mat, and I was looking to buy one in person but couldn’t seem to find one so opted for this.
It’s plenty big enough as we’ve only got a small round fire pit. It seems to work perfectly, and I can only judge that on the fact that there’s no burn or scorch marks on the decking (my biggest fear!)
It seems very durable and so far so good, I will keep using it and hoping it keeps doing the job. It wipes down easily enough too, so the quality seems very good.
This protective mat is a simple yet effective solution for various uses. It appears to be well-made and of good quality, serving its purpose well.
The mat is relatively heavy and seems to be constructed with a rubberised material or rubber coating. This design ensures that it stays in place when laid out without feeling overly sticky. I used it to safeguard some new deck tiles in my garden, placing it beneath a barbeque. The instructions recommend keeping at least 6 inches away from direct heat, which is easy to achieve with this type of grill. The mat did an excellent job of protecting the tiles, even when dealing with spills and drips, which didn’t seem to cause any damage. Cleaning it was a breeze — a simple wipe with a damp cloth, and it was ready to fold away for future use.
The mat features hemmed edges, making it easy to manoeuvre into place. While I haven’t used similar products before, this one performed admirably.
We no longer have any open ground where we can place a bonfire. I have a fairly large (36″) steel fire pit which stands about 7 inches off the ground but the only place I can position it is in the middle of our grassed lawn. So on November 5th for Guy Fawkes night we decided to give this fire pit mat from Kovshuiwe a try and so I laid the mat over the grass and placed our fire pit on top. We had a massive fire going in the pit for about 6 hours and at one point the heat was so intense that the underside of the fire bowl was glowing red. The next day (the fire was still quite warm), we removed the fire pit and lifted the mat. The grass underneath was flattened but there was no scorching or heat damage and after another day the grass was upright and fully recovered as though there had never been a fire. So I am impressed with this heat-resisting mat, so long as you have at least 6 inches of air space below your fire pit, this really does a great job. It may not last forever but it is cheap enough to replace regularly.
A protective mat beneath the barbecue has turned my weekend grilling into a less worrisome affair. No longer does a spill or splatter send me into a frenzy. The mat handles the mess, and a simple hose down post-cookout leaves it looking new. Being able to snip it to fit the space was a cinch, and it’s reassuring to know that while it doesn’t flame up, it reminds me to keep an eye on those searing temperatures.
This is largely as described but thinner than I was expecting. That said it is sturdy and should last a few summers.
I’ve not had been able to test this in anger as the BBQ season is long gone this year now but I can see that the mat is decent quality, with good stitching and a tough but thin rubberised material.
It looks to be easy to clean and will sit nicely under my kettle BBQ stopping any grease from dripping onto the patio.
At the time of review this had a large voucher making it around 18 which I think is quite good but the regular price is overpriced in my opinion.
There’s probably no a great deal to say about this mat other than it appears to be of good quality and serves its purpose well. I
t is quite heavy and appears to be of rubberised construction or rubber coating. Either way, it is sufficiently tacky without being sticky, to stay in place when laid out. I’ve used it to protect some new deck tiles in the garden and placed it under a bowl type charcoal bar-b-que. The instructions warn to give at least 6 inches from direct heat, which is no problem with this sort of grill. The mat protected the tiles well, even with a few drips and fat spills, which did not appear to damage it. Then it was easy to clean with a damp cloth and fold away for future use.
The edges are hemmed over and it is quite easy to manoeuvre it into place. I have never used ones of these before, so cannot say how it may compare to other similar products, but this one does a very good job. I can see it would also have plenty of other uses in protecting flooring or even covering something over in the garden as it is waterproof.
For the price at time of this review, 25.90 with a 30% off voucher, it would seem to be good value and a very useful product to have.
This is a good quality protective mat , it’s very easy to use and is just the job for deflecting the heat from my log burner in my man shed .it is lightweight and easy to store.
It’s simple and very effective at reducing the thermal heat to floors and walls.
I would happily recommend.
