Newtex FirePad Deck Protector - Perfect for Fire Pits, BBQ, Smokers, Grills - Protects Porch, Patio, Deck, Wood, Grass, Stone, Composite from Burns - Heat Resistant Fire Pit Mat (24")

I purchased this FirePad to put under my cast iron fire pit to prevent the grass from turning brown. It works great and reflects the heat away from the ground. Before I bought this pad my grass would turn brown where I used the fire pit. Now, with using the pad, my grass stays nice and green. Keep in mind that the fire pit needs to have legs that raise the bottom of the fire pit at least 2 inches away from the pad to work properly. The bottom of the fire pit cannot rest on the pad. This is a great product and will work well to protect grass, patio, or deck from heat damage.

Thin, light and protects wooden deck from heat from a SoloStove firepit. Only complaint is not about the product but it appears Amazon had the identical product for approx. $12 less while mine was being shipped. Because I know of no way to call Amazon and I didn't want to go through the aggravation of returning and re-ordering I just ate the price. No problems with the product at all.

I bought this for my daughter for protection under the fire pit I bought her. It came rolled up stuffed into a tube with instructions not to roll it up...…….WHAT? It is different types of material joined together which doesn't roll well so I'm surprised they rolled it and put it into a tube and then tell you not to roll it! I took it out of the tube and flattened it out as well as I could and folded it loosely and put it back into the same box it came in, Why didn't they do that? I mean since it came in a box anyway why roll it up and then instruct us to store it flat! Nice tube!

I admit I was a bit skeptical, considering all the other deck protectors out there are in the hundreds of dollars range, but this product had good reviews so I thought I would try it. I have a metal fire pit on my composite deck, and was worried that the radiant heat from the bottom of the firepit might either melt, warp, or discolor the deck since the slats are plastic. Prior to purchasing this item, I kept putting my hand on the deck when I had a fire going - to see how hot it was, and I would occasionally move the firepit around so that it wouldn't get one certain spot too hot. I was a little paranoid every time we had a fire going, so I ultimately decided to give this a try, and I am SO GLAD I did!!! Now, no matter how long the fire is going for, or how hot it gets, the deck protector underneath is still COOL TO THE TOUCH! I don't know how it manages to stay cool, but it does. I wouldn't believe it if I didn't experience it firsthand, but this thing is awesom!!!. Totally worth the money to have the peace of mind for protecting my nice deck. I thought it was going to be a rigid piece of material, but it is actually flexible and arrived rolled up in a poster tube. I unrolled it and let it lay flat for a while and it now has no curls or indication that it was rolled up for days during the shipping process. I put it under the firepit before I start the fire, and I remove it when the fire is done. I wouldn't want to leave it outside all the time because it is a fabric-type material. I just keep it indoors when not in use (under the sofa), near my patio door :-). Anyway, bottom line here is that you should get this because IT WORKS REALLY WELL!!!! A great value indeed! I will try and post a picture next time I have a fire burning, along with the temperatures of the fire vs the heat pad. You will be amazed.

First use with Urban Deci fire pit didn’t work well. Luckily had lid from 55 gal barrel and dollied 4 holes and used 4 bolts to raise fire pit. The extra room and air flow is all it took for adequate airflow to not burn asphalt or crack concrete. Excellent added protective layer. Will buy again.

I bought this so we could burn our fire pit on our newly painted cement pool deck. I was worried that we would char or melt the paint. This holds true to it's claim. With the fire full blaze, I was able to put my hand on this pad and it was cool to the touch. Going to buy another one for when we go camping to prevent sparking an unwanted fire.

I have a large S&S fire pit which I just love. Recently put in a stamped/colored concrete patio and wanted to protect it from the heat of the fire pit. Drastically reduced the heat getting to the concrete. For the little bit of money, if this helps protect the concrete coloring/sealer then I think it's worth it

We bought a fire pit for our deck which is made of trex and needed something to put under the fire pit to protect our deck. This has worked great for keeping the heat off our deck! So far none of the boards have any damage on them from the heat! Super happy with this purchase!
