Adezz Stig Outdoor Fireplace With Wood Compartment | Coated or Corten Steel

Dimensions: 500 x 500 x 1000 mm, Thickness: 3 mm, Weight: 93 kg.

It burns wood in a double-walled firebox for better heat retention, with a log store built into the base. An optional grill converts it into a barbecue.

The flue pipe and rain cap are not included as standard but can be added to the order, and an optional grill can be added to convert it into a BBQ.

You can choose between Corten steel or Coated steel. Corten steel arrives unrusted and develops an orange-brown patina as it weathers, which most owners choose for its aged, garden-architecture look. Coated steel is the choice if you want a more uniform look from day one or the piece lives somewhere more sheltered.

We deliver Free to mainland United Kingdom within 5 to 10 working days. Additional charges may apply for remote areas in Scotland, Wales, Devon and Cornwall. Larger items are delivered on a pallet, kerbside, the driver isn’t required to carry it past obstacles like steps, so let us know at checkout if your access is tricky.

It’s backed by Adezz’s 5-Year Manufacturer Guarantee. On top of that, Fireside Boutique’s standard policy is 45-day returns on unused items in their original packaging (you cover return shipping on a non-faulty return, which is worth weighing up given the weight of these pieces).

The Stig is the most affordable way into an Adezz outdoor fireplace, starting at £645 against £745 for the Enok and £1,425 for the Digna. It is a single 500 x 500 x 1000 mm size in 3mm steel, so there is no sizing decision to make, and it is available in Corten or coated steel.

An outdoor fireplace and a fire pit are not interchangeable, and the Stig is the fireplace side of that choice. A fireplace stands upright with a flue, so it draws smoke up and away and throws heat forward from a single opening, which makes it a focal point against a wall or at the end of a terrace. A fire pit sits low and open, radiating in every direction, so people can sit all the way round it. Choose a fireplace when the seating faces one way and smoke drifting across the table is the thing to avoid; choose a pit when the fire itself is the centre of the circle. If the fire is meant to sit in the middle of the seating instead, the Halo fire pit and Quad fire table are the open-format alternatives.

The Stig comes in Corten or coated steel: the same 3mm body, finished two ways, and the choice is whether you want it to change. Corten is weathering steel, forming a stable rust-coloured oxide layer that protects the metal beneath and holds that russet look for 20 to 30 years with no painting. Coated steel keeps the Stig the colour it arrived in, which is the right answer when it has to match existing dark metalwork or when an orange transition would fight the planting. Coated finishes hold up well outdoors provided you keep a cover on the piece over the off-season. For most British gardens the Corten Stig is the lower-maintenance default; pick the coated one when a fixed colour matters more than a weathered one. The one thing to plan for is the Stig's first season: Corten bleeds orange run-off onto pale paving while it patinates, and on porous stone that can leave a permanent mark, so settle the position before you light it. Our fire pit materials guide and rust-proof fire pit guide both cover how the finishes age.
