Quad Fire Pit in Stainless Steel: a low square fire pit that never rusts
The Outdoor Plus Quad fire pit in stainless steel is a low, square gas fire pit in a 36 or 42 inch size, handmade in the USA. Stainless keeps its clean brushed look through rain, sprinklers, and salt air with nothing more than an occasional wipe, which makes it a natural fit for modern patios and coastal homes.
Order it for natural gas or propane. Light it with a match, or add electronic ignition and start it with a button. A key valve, canvas cover, stainless lid, glass wind guard, bullet burner upgrade, and fire glass are optional. Like the shape but want a warmer material? The Quad also comes in hammered copper and Corten steel. The stainless Quad fire pit ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
Why choose stainless steel for the Quad?
Because it is the closest thing to zero-maintenance fire. Stainless does not rust, patina, or need refinishing — the Quad keeps its clean machined look with nothing but an occasional wipe-down, which also makes it the natural pick for modern architecture and for coastal air that punishes other metals.
What sizes does the stainless Quad come in?
A 36-inch and a 42-inch square, SKUs OPT-QDSS36 and OPT-QDSS42. Same brushed stainless body, two scales of flame — the 42-inch earns its space on larger patios, while the 36-inch tucks neatly into courtyard-sized layouts.
Which ignition choices does the stainless Quad support?
The full slate of five: Match Lit, Match Lit with Flame Sense (LC certified), Flame Sense with Spark, Low Voltage Electronic (CSA certified), and Plug and Play (CSA certified). If you want the stainless Quad to light from a wall switch, order it electronic from the start.
Can you roast marshmallows over the stainless Quad?
Over the stainless Quad, yes — natural gas and propane both burn clean enough to cook over safely. Toast at the flame tips, not down near the ports, and keep sugar drips off the media. Stainless has the bonus of wiping clean if anything does land on the rim.
How does the stainless Quad get lit?
Match Lit versions light with a long lighter held to the burner as you open the valve slowly. Electronic versions of the Quad light at a button or switch and supervise their own flame. Either way, first light takes seconds, not the twenty minutes a wood fire demands.
How close to the house can the Quad go?
Plan on the ten-foot rule of thumb unless your local code says otherwise, and always honor the clearances printed in the Quad spec sheet — especially overhead. Gas means no embers drifting toward the roof, which is why gas fire pit owners often place them closer to living areas than any wood fire could go.
Can you cook food on the stainless Quad?
Marshmallows and skewered treats over the flame, happily — but the stainless Quad is not designed as a grill. Grease dripping into the burner and media creates flare-ups and cleanup problems, so keep actual cooking on the barbecue and let the fire pit do ambiance.
