Features and construction
This set will have an all-wooden construction of the chairs. The acacia wood for the chairs will last a lifetime with proper care, making sure it is clean and treating once a year with tongue oil.
Chairs will have both seat and back cushions. Cushions will have polyester fabric for covers, these cushions should be stored when not in use to make them last more than a few seasons.
Color choices for this set will be two cushions colors (cream and dark teal) and two wood tones (brown patina or gray), the fire pit will remain the same in all three combinations. The dark teal cushions are only available in the brown patina wood tone.
The fire pit will have steel frames and a molded and painted lightweight concrete finish to look like stacked stone. The square fire bowl will have a round burner with lava rocks as a fire medium.
Size and special options
This patio furniture set will fit on most outdoor areas that are at least feet square comfortably, any smaller and it will feel cramped.
Each chair will be 24 inches wide, 20.5 inches deep, and 33.5 inches tall. The seat will be 12.5 inches off the floor with cushions. Arms are 25 inches off the floor.
Cushions will have polyester fabric covers. They will be 20.5 inches deep and 21 inches wide.
The firepit will be 32.2 inches across the top of the mantle and 23.8 inches tall. A side door will allow access to a 20-pound propane tank (not included). Another panel will have a control panel for an electronic igniter and flame control.
Assembly and/or care
Assembly should take the average person less than an hour. The chairs will come in four major pieces and the fire pit will need the burner and lava rocks installed.
The chairs will need the back and seat attached with included screws. Be careful to add the sides to the proper sides as the screws are inset a little and it will not look good to have them hang out if installed wrong. After the chair is set on its feet, do the final tightening of the hardware for the best results.
Taking care of your patio furniture will be easy, just a mild soap and water mixture will take care of most spills. Just do not use any harsh chemicals as it will damage the wood finish and painted finish on the fire pit. Even glass cleaners can start the paint to discolor and peel over a short time.
Cushions should be stored when not in use to prevent fading over time. Look at some of my storage solutions here for help.
Pros cons of the Tucson Acacia Wood Patio Set with Fire Pit
Pros
- Acacia wood frames
- Acacia wood is one of the best woods for outdoor furniture. If taken care of (onea year treatment with oil) it could outlast its owners.
- Propane storage under fire pit
- The propane tank will store behind a door of the fire pit and not be seen. This will give you a cleaner look to your patio.
- Faux rock look of fire pit
- The fire pit will have a faux rock finish that is made from lightweight concrete with a painted finish.
Cons
- No movement in chairs
- Chairs have straight legs with no movement. The cushions are the only thing that will make for long term seating comfort.
- Cushions will need a storage solution
- Any outdoor cushions should be stored out of the weather to make them last more than a few seasons.
- Lava Rocks in burn bowl
- Lava rocks do produce some dust and can clog the burner holes if not cleaned properly. The glass rocks look better, they would be an extra cost with this set.

Final thoughts on the Tucson Acacia Wood Patio Set with Fire Pit
I hope that you have found my information helpful. The Tucson patio furniture will last a lifetime if taken care of properly. The price is under $1000 and will look good in any patio area. The fire pit will give you a great heat source during the cooler months of fall and spring.
The biggest problem with this patio set is the cushions, they will only last as long as you take care of them. Please store your patio cushions when not in use.

Hi. I find this an attractive patio set but I think it would need to be in the right setting for it to work. I do think the set could easily get lost in a big space on a patio, especially because of the small fire pit. So I think it would work best in a small patio or in a distinct area of a larger patio. Our patio furniture is teak. We have had it for 15 years now and it is still in very good shape. I recently power-washed the whole set so it is looking almost new. I have one question about the Tuscon Acacia set featured, the chair seats look a bit low to me. I am asking because I have trouble getting up out of low seats. Thanks, Andy
Andy,
The seat height is 12.5 inches off the floor, does not mention if this is with or without the cushions. The cushions should add about 2 inches to this height.
You are right about this type of wood, the acacia wood is in the same family as the teak. It has been used for furniture for several thousand years and some of the furniture is still intact after all this time.

I have heard good comments about how long acacia wood chairs lost. I like the fact that they are very stylish. And looking at the options you presented here, I really like the blue/turquoise ones. In my book, this is a good investment that will last years. And in my case, I like to talk with friends and family that visit me in the patio.
Ann,
Thanks for looking, this would be a great conversation set for just talking with friends with a cool refreshment. You can use it during the cooler months with the fire pit.
John
