Where does the tank go? Just sits next to it or does it go in the barrel?

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Colton, I believe the propane tank for the Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table goes inside the barrel.

Yup! Fits perfect!

ExecMemberMike said...

That's great to hear @Colton! I hope you get to use your new Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table a lot and that it lasts you a very long time.

GailP said...

Have followed directions to set up. Inserted battery, pressed and held electric igniter, and turned control knob to low. I hear clicks but won't ignite. Help. What is wrong.

ExecMemberMike said...

Hi @GailP, I'm not much of a handyman when it comes to these things, but it sounds like there's something wrong with the igniter in your Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table. You may want to contact the manufacturer and maybe they'd be willing to replace that part or at least diagnose the problem. If their customer service is of no help, you can always just return it to Costco. It's a good thing Costco has a pretty good return policy when it comes to products that you're not completely satisfied with.

Unknown said...

Hi - I bought one of these and I'm very happy. Unfortunately, I lost the user manual, if anyone could scan the document for me and send it to l_gecho@ hotmail.com. It would be greatly appreciated.

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Phil, I'm glad to hear that you're loving your Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table. Hopefully someone on here can hook you up with the user's manual, but don't let that stop you from enjoying it even more!

My fire table continually goes out during use. If im right next to the unit when it goes out i can quickly push the knob in and it lights back up but it just goes out again a few minutes later. Thought maybe my propane tank was empty to I switched to a brand new one and it still happens. I guess im going to have to return it since i have only had it for about a month and have only used like 5 times or so.

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @TRACEY, ya it does sound like there's something wrong with the Global Outdoors 27" Gas Fire Table that you got. It seems like you happened to get a lemon, but at least Costco will give you a refund for that defective unit.

Unknown said...

Do you know if this fire pit can be connected to a natural gas line?

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Bonnie, I'm not sure if the Global Outdoors 27" Gas Fire Table can be connected to a natural gas line, but I must admit that it would be cool if it could though. I'm just not much of a handyman when it comes to gas lines since I don't want to accidentally blow up my house or cause a family.

Unknown said...

Hello! I was wondering - is the flame only in the inner circle, or is it throughout all of the "glass area"on top?

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Brian, there's a ring in the middle that is about half of the diameter of the "pit" area in the Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table where the flame is coming from. It looks as though the flames are not covering the entire glass area according to the picture on the box - only the center portion of the glass area where the ring is.

How or where can i find the user manual/instruction sheet?

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Anonymous, you may need to contact the manufacturer in order to obtain the user's manual for the Global Outdoors 27" Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table. I know the manufacturer has a Facebook page that you can use as a resource in case their main website is useless. Good luck!

Unknown said...

Product works great, but the lid is broken in half. Any one know where I can get a replacement.

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Bruce, that's great that the Global Outdoors 27" Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table is totally working out for you. You may be able to contact the manufacturer to get a replacement lid. The contact information could either be on the box or in the user's manual. That or you can return or exchange it at your local Costco. Costco usually has a pretty good return policy when it comes to products that you're not completely satisfied with.

One month old and mine turns off by itself sometimes (continuous when it starts happening). My neighbor bought one too and it's happening even more frequently with their unit. Longmont, Colorado

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Anonymous, I guess the manufacturer for the Global Outdoors 27" Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table needs to improve their quality control. It's obvious that you and your neighbor got defective units. I hope that you'll return it for a full refund.

Unknown said...

Purchased one today. The igniter worked, but could not get the unit to ignite, even with a lighter. Took it back, got a replacement, and the same thing. I can't get it to light no matter what i do.

ExecMemberMike said...

Hi @njs196565, you can always exchange your Global Outdoors 27" Gas Fire Table for another or return it for a full refund at Costco. If you really want to troubleshoot it, you may just want to do a search online. This is a common problem for many gas bbq grills, so I'm sure there'll be plenty of content online for you to look at. They can probably provide some tips to help get your fire table lit. I hope this helps!

Unknown said...

Just let you know you need to turn the propane tank off after your done using it or else it will continue to leak propane. It is.just luke a bbw if the ignitir doesnt work use a lighter stick next to the ring as you push the large button

ExecMemberMike said...

Hi @Unknown, thanks for providing some good tips for the Global Outdoors 27" Gas Fire Table. I'm sure this advice can take care of some of the issues some people may be experiencing with lighting this gas table.

Anonymous said...

For the people who have a problem with it shutting off randomly, I had the same problem. The company sent me out a replacement part at no charge. It's worked fine ever since. Just call them; they knew right away what the problem was.

ExecMemberMike said...

Thank you @Anonymous for the tip! I'm sure those having similar issues with their Global Outdoors 27" Gas Fire Table will find this quite helpful.

Costco has raised the price to $289.99. What is the color of the fire glass?

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Anonymous, thank you for the price update for the Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table. And if I remember correctly, I think the fire glass for the Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table are color black.

Jim said...

Just set mine up. 1. Not enough glass to cover the inside. About 1/2 of the amount needed. 2. Of course the battery in the ignitor was dead. Gas hose is too short -- by at least 8 inches. And had to use a lighter to get it going even with the new battery. I guess I will know better after this weekend if I am keeping it.

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Jim, it sounds like your Global Outdoors 27" Glass Fire Table has a bunch of issues right from the get go. I guess this is where Costco's return policy comes in handy when the product that you purchased from Costco isn't exactly what you expected.

Unknown said...

I bought this fire table back in late February or March and have not tried it out until this evening due to doing a lot of landscaping. I'm having the same problem with my unit that I see many others having. It will not stay lit unless I sit right next to it and hold the control knob in. Not happy with this at all, but I don't know if Costco will still let me return it, or exchange it or something. Even store credit would be better than this worthless fire table. I'm so disappointed in it.

ExecMemberMike said...

Hi @Rose, you should be able to return your Global Outdoors 27" Glass Fire Table to Costco for a full refund since it appears to be defective. As mentioned, Costco has a really good return policy and isn't very strict like other retailers. I've heard stories of people returning perfectly working items purchased at Costco after over a year. That being the case, you shouldn't encounter any issues getting your money back. Good luck!

Tony said...

i have the fire pit and unfortunately my cover has broken do you know how to get a replacement?

ExecMemberMike said...

Hi @Tony, you could try contacting the manufacturer to get a replacement cover for your Global Outdoors 27" Glass Fire Table. Hopefully, they'll be able to help you out. That or you can go online to another retailer's website and find a cover that may be a good enough fit for the fire pit. Good luck!

Ericka said...

I'm very interested in this product! Nights can get chilly as I live in a mountain town. Does it put off decent heat? I noted the btu's but I'm not too familiar with that sort of thing. Thanks!

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Ericka, I'm not sure whether the Global Outdoors 27" Gas Fire Table would be warm enough for you especially since you live in a high altitude area. What you could do is just try it out first and if it isn't warm enough, you can always return it. That's what's great about Costco. You can return items your purchased if you're not completely satisfied with it, but this is under the assumption that you live close enough to Costco that returning it wouldn't be much of a problem in terms of driving time and distance.

Jamie said...

How about spare parts for this product? I need to replace the top lid which broke. Any suggestions?

ExecMemberMike said...

You may want to give the manufacturer a call to find a replacement lid for your Global Outdoors 27" Gas Fire Table, @Jamie. I doubt Costco would have replacement parts available.

Erick M said...

Heres the link to the manual for those that are asking. http://warehouses.costco.co.uk/webdocs/pdf/prodfeat/998854_manual.pdf

ExecMemberMike said...

Thank you @Erick for providing the user's manual for the Global Outdoors 27" Gas Fire Table. I'm sure a lot of people will find this quite helpful.

Sandee said...

Read the manual - no comment about whether the glass marbles or lava rocks can cover the ring and whether or not they should stay clear of the "guard" , the little square metal thing with vents just sticking up above the level of the fire ring. I would like for the metal ring not to show and as it does, have bought extra rocks to add. Is that okay? So far, the barrel works brilliantly, lights easily, stays lit.

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Sandee, thank you for sharing your experience with the Global Outdoors Wine Barrel 27" Gas Fire Table. I would think that it would be ok to add additional lava rocks. I don't see the harm in that, and it seems like it's working out well for you which I'm glad to hear.

Unknown said...

I need to order a replacement cover/top/lid. I accidentally broke the one that came with. How do I go about ordering a new one?

ExecMemberMike said...

Hi @whirlwind1023, I doubt that Costco sells just the lid for the Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table, so you may have to contact the manufacturer to obtain a replacement. Hopefully they can help you out. Good luck!

Jamie said...

Hi @whirlwind1023, I sent a request via the contact us link on the globaloutdoorsinc.com website, asking how I could order a replacement lid for the wine barrel gas fire table, and then sent one, no charge. Great customer service.

ExecMemberMike said...

Thanks @Jamie for letting us know what you had to do to get a replacement lid for your Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table. I'm pleasantly surprised that Global Outdoors sent you one at no cost since most manufacturers wouldn't be nice enough to do that. I'm glad that they were able to help you out.

Evan Excell said...

I broke the lid with handle? Can I buy it separately? Also I'd like to purchase a new nylon cover. Any chance for these items? We love our gas fire table.

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @Evan_Excell, that's great that you are enjoying your Global Outdoors Gas Fire Table. I highly doubt that you can buy just the lid or just the nylon cover separately, but you can always inquire with the manufacturer to see if they can provide or sell them. There's no hurt in asking. If they can't, you can at least buy a generic cover for it. I would try checking out covers for bbq's that might fit. There are some covers on Amazon which you can check out in addition to this one here. You might be able to find something that'll fit your fire table. I hope this helps. Good luck!

Jamie said...

See my previous comment on this thread. Company has great customer service.

DH said...

I have the Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table purchased from Costco on 02/21/2016 and the concrete composite material (gypsum) is cracked and peeling off in chunks and the paint is peeling off. It was always covered outside. It’s rusting out underneath and the leveling legs are rusting off. I cannot find the warranty, but I do have the receipt.

Unknown said...

I have owned the Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table for about 4 years and the heat shield is warped and falling apart. The replacement heat shield seems to be discontinued from the manufacturer, so I may need to throw it out (or attempt to return it). What a waste! I think manufacturers should be mandated to provide support and replacement parts longer than the typical 90 days to 1 year. As a (western) society we have become accustomed to just throwing things out, which is a terrible burden on our environment (and our children's future). End rant...

ExecMemberMike said...

Hello @DH, you may be able to return your Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table from Costco even without a receipt. Costco has a flexible return policy especially when it comes to items that you're not completely satisfied with. Costco may already have a record of your purchasing the item in their database too.

ExecMemberMike said...

I couldn't agree with you more, @Unknown. I'm all for recycling, reusing, and saving the environment and it's a shame that we've become very wasteful and tend to treat things as disposable and easily replaceable. Unfortunately, saving the environment and providing a 1 year's worth of support goes against most companies' bottom lines. Hopefully, you can find some sort of hack to fix or fashion another heat shield for the Global Outdoors Wine Barrel Gas Fire Table, so that you don't have to toss it out.
