★★★★★ "Absolutely Transformed Our Patio Evenings"
Model: Lava Heat Italia Opus
We debated several patio heaters for our new backyard space and chose the Opus for its Italian styling and robust BTUs. It is hands-down the most beautiful and effective heater we’ve seen—the flame is mesmerizing, it heats a huge area, and the remote is super convenient. Arrived fully assembled and feels very high-end. Guests always ask about it!

★★★★★ "Superior to Anything We’ve Owned Before"
Model: Lava Heat Italia Capri
We’ve used other, cheaper heaters over the years, but the Capri is in a league of its own. High-quality materials, no assembly required, perfect for our breezy evenings. Plus, the architectural finish looks fantastic even after being outside all season.

★★★★☆ "Stylish, Safe, and Worth the Investment"
Model: Lava Lite
We run a small downtown café with sidewalk seating and needed something that looked great and kept customers warm. The Lava Lite delivered on both fronts. Portable, reliable, and easy to use (electronic ignition is a great touch). The only drawback is you do have to refill propane tanks more often during busy weeks, but the portability makes up for it.

★★★★★ "Blown Away by Performance and Service"
Model: Shade
Bought the Shade electric model for our covered deck. It’s easy to install, heats up fast, and the touch controls are very intuitive. We had a minor shipping issue; customer service resolved it quickly and professionally. Love that it can be used indoors or out.

★★★★★ "Worth Every Penny—for Home or Business"
Model: Opus Lite
Purchased two Opus Lite heaters for our boutique hotel terrace. Guests rave about the warm, inviting flames and the chic design. Installation was a breeze, and the units are holding up great—even in coastal weather. Highly recommend Lava Heat Italia for anyone who cares about quality and aesthetics.
