FAQs
Can this bucket be used to store hot ashes?

What are the exact dimensions of the bucket?

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: remove all packaging and ensure the product is placed on a non-combustible, level surface near your fireplace. The coal bucket is compatible with standard coal, ovoids, or logs of appropriate size. To maintain the finish, simply wipe the exterior with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth after the unit has cooled completely. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these may scratch or degrade the powder-coated surface.
