After placing my order for a custom screen, I received a phone call from the company to confirm measurements, installation, and more. The screen is exactly what I ordered and I couldn't be happier.

Mike you did good. The Saturn fire pit you picked is made from sheets of steel that are 1/4" thick. A fire pit like that is not only a great place to create memories, it's heirloom quality and it will last a lifetime and then some.

Perfect fit fireplace doors
August 9, 2025

I needed fireplace doors that were overlap fit on the sides, and inside fit on the top and bottom. I could not find many manufacturers that could produce attractive doors to my specs. WoodlandDirect made perfect doors that look fabulous. I was a little concerned about the hinged glass doors, and the level of quality and craftsmanship that could be achieved with such a design. But I am very impressed, they are ridged, thick, and work beautifully. Easy install too. I installed two doors on a double sided fire place in 1 hour.

Thad, you did great. These doors were custom made in Wisconsin by one of the oldest and most trusted door manufacturers in the world. We helped, but you made it all happen. You picked the doors, measured and told us how to make them, then installed them when they got there. Thank you for including us in your great success story.

Quality product
August 7, 2025

I shopped on Amazon and online for firewood brackets, and ordered three different sets for comparison. The Woodland Direct brackets are by far the most expensive, but they are also heavier and better made. I built my rack and am happy with the results. Now we will see how the finish holds up to coastal air... Made in China, like all the rest.

We're glad to hear you were so happy with the quality of your firewood brackets. We regret the challenge you had with the shipping and that we weren't able to help as quickly as you needed. Thank you for letting us know where we hit the mark and where we can get better.

Corten Steel
August 7, 2025

We love the look of if the fire pit, but I wish there would have been information about the rust dust in the unit and how it stains everything that comes in contact with it and if it gets wet the rust comes off and stains the deck/concrete.

Date of experience: July 28, 2025
Lance M. β€” WoodlandDirect Rep

Thank you for your feedbackβ€”we’re glad to hear you love the look of your fire pit. What you're experiencing is completely normal for Corten steel, which is designed to develop a protective rust layer over time.

Corten (or weathering steel) intentionally forms a rusted surface when exposed to moisture and air. In its early stages, this surface can leave rust dust on anything it touches, and water runoff may cause staining on patios, pavers, or concrete. This is a natural part of how the steel β€œweathers.”

Over time, the steel will develop a darker, more uniform patinaβ€”a deep, rich brown color that eventually stabilizes. Once fully weathered, the surface becomes much more stable and stops shedding rust. However, staining of surrounding surfaces is an expected and permanent characteristic of this material, especially during the early phases.
