Gladiator Fire Bowl: a square-topped steel fire bowl in 24, 30, or 36 inches
The Outdoor Plus Gladiator fire bowl is a gas fire bowl with a square top and bold geometric facets around its sides, made from heavy galvanized steel and finished in a baked-on powder coat, so it shrugs off rain and sun. Choose a 24, 30, or 36 inch bowl and one of 15 colors.
Order it for natural gas or propane. Light it with a match, or add electronic ignition and start it with a button. The fire pan, burner, mounting bracket, hose, and fittings are included; a key valve, canvas cover, and fire glass are optional. Want it to glow at night too? See the Gladiator LED fire bowl. The Gladiator fire bowl ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What is the Gladiator Fire Bowl made from?
Heavy-duty galvanized US steel, formed and finished in the USA, then powder coated. The galvanizing layer fights corrosion from underneath while the baked coating defends the surface, which is why the Gladiator earns its name: it is the workhorse pick for households that use their fire feature hard.
What sizes and colors does the Gladiator come in?
Three bowls, 24, 30, and 36-inch (OPT-GLDPC24, OPT-GLDPC30, OPT-GLDPC36), in 15 powder coat finishes: Black, White, Silver Vein, Java, Gray, Pewter, Copper Vein, Olive Green, Mist, Soft White, Onyx Black, Bronze Hammertone, Sapphire Blue, White Vein and Gold Vein. A key valve installation is optional if you want removable-key gas control right at the bowl.
What ships with the Gladiator, and how does it light?
Fire pan and plate, burner, mounting bracket, NG or LP orifice, and whistle-free hose come included. Ignition is your call: Match Lit or Low Voltage Electronic (CSA Certified), and every Gladiator is built to order for Liquid Propane or Natural Gas.
What distance should the Gladiator bowl keep from walls?
Budget at least ten feet from walls, fences, and anything overhanging unless your local code allows closer. The Gladiator throws no sparks or embers, which usually makes officials more comfortable than a wood pit at similar distances, but confirm setbacks before your gas line goes in.
What should cover the burner, glass or lava rock?
Either, as long as it is fire-rated media. Lava rock plays up the Gladiator’s rugged steel character, while reflective fire glass dresses it up against the White or Silver Vein coats. Spread a level layer over the burner and skip anything not rated for gas flames.
Are backyard gas fires even allowed in most towns?
Generally yes, even where wood burning is restricted, because a gas fire pit like the Gladiator produces no smoke or flying embers. The gas connection itself may need a permit, so loop in your building department or installer early in planning.
Can I grill anything on the Gladiator?
Stick to marshmallows and skewer snacks. The Gladiator is a decorative fire feature, so food drippings foul the lava rock and burner rather than a grate built to take them. For s’mores night it is perfect; for steaks, fire up an actual grill nearby.
