If you’ve been considering an outdoor kitchen for your home, condominium, or vacation rental, you’ll know there are many new brands, materials, and styles of outdoor kitchens that have arrived on the market in recent years. Outdoor living is proving to be one of the hottest markets in the building industry with more large track builders offering outdoor kitchens as a must-have upgrade for eager new homeowners.
An outdoor kitchen build should be a one-and-done style legacy build without worry that it won’t last as long as its indoor counterpart. This highly desirable add-on will add value to your home, help it stand out on the market, and provide years of enjoyment and memories for you, your friends, and your family.
The New Kid on The Block – Urban Bonfire™ by Oasis Outdoor Living™
While traditional stone outdoor kitchens have been built from masonry block and stacked stone, many discerning homeowners have been enjoying the flexibility and stylish looks of outdoor kitchens built from alternative materials such as composites and metals. One such manufacturer is Urban Bonfire™ who entered the market in late 2016 and has brought to the outdoor living world the perfect combination of art, innovation, and unmatched durability. Let’s take a look at the pros and cons of choosing an Urban Bonfire™ by Oasis Outdoor Living™ outdoor kitchen for your outdoor space.
Benefits of Installing an Urban Bonfire™ by Oasis Outdoor Living™ Outdoor Kitchen
We’ll be honest, there isn’t much not to like about an Urban Bonfire™ outdoor kitchen. From their modern art-inspired design to their marine grade cabinetry, no expense was spared when it comes to the engineering and artful design of their outdoor kitchens.
Unmatched Durability
Unlike any other outdoor metal kitchen manufacturer, Urban Bonfire™ chose to build their cabinetry from marine grade aluminum, rather than your typical stainless-steel outdoor kitchen cabinetry. This upgrade in material gives their cabinets twice the strength and durability of stainless-steel cabinets at nearly half the weight. This added strength is felt when you open and close the doors and drawers of every Urban Bonfire™ outdoor kitchen, much like the feeling of quality you get when closing the door of a luxury automobile as a opposed to the flimsy feeling of a lesser vehicle.
Aluminum is also one of the most durable metals in manufacturing making Urban Bonfire™ a great choice for costal installs where its “marine grade” designation makes a huge difference in long-term durability. As an added measure of protection, every cabinet face receives their custom formulated “Super Durable” finish which is applied to AAMA 2604 standards.
Beautiful Aesthetics
There is no denying the beauty of Urban Bonfire™ outdoor kitchens which is realized through a stunning combination of perfect symmetry and neutral toned base colors. This allows you to chose appliances and countertops that “pop” while the cabinetry provides the perfect canvas to build upon for your project.
Combining Urban Bonfire™ cabinets with a modern countertop choice such as DEKTON™ allows you to add even more personality and style to your outdoor kitchen. You can even add modern touches such as waterfall edge countertops to bring the modern and sleek look of your indoor kitchen to the outdoors.
Truly Future Proof Modular Cabinet Design
As you develop your culinary prowess in the great outdoors, you may find you have additional needs to bring a higher level of cooking and grilling to your outdoor kitchen. This is where Urban Bonfire™ really shines through their innovative and flexible interior universal track system. Do you want that drawer and trash combination cabinet to be a three-tiered shelf for more spice storage? In just minutes you can reconfigure your outdoor kitchen just the way you want it.
With 6 base colors to choose from, adding on to your outdoor kitchen is also no problem when you choose an Urban Bonfire™ outdoor kitchen. Want to add an outdoor kitchen island to parallel your existing Urban Bonfire™ outdoor kitchen? You can continue to expand your outdoor kitchen knowing that each cabinet and countertop will perfectly match your existing structure and add even more versatility.
Lightweight
The lightweight nature of aluminum combined with the modular design of Urban Bonfire™ by Oasis Outdoor Living™ outdoor kitchens make them a great option for installations where weight is critical. If you’d like your outdoor kitchen built on a deck, an Urban Bonfire™ outdoor kitchen offers no compromise in features and amenities while requiring no additional bracing or support.
An Urban Bonfire™ Outdoor kitchen is also a great option for a roof top outdoor kitchen. Their modular design makes transporting each component up stairs or a service elevator for assembly a quick and easy endeavor.
Other Considerations when Choosing an Urban Bonfire™ by Oasis Outdoor Living™ Outdoor Kitchen
While Urban Bonfire™ by Oasis Outdoor Living™ outdoor kitchens have a whole lot to like, there are also a few considerations in budget and design that should be examined before your build.
Price – You Get What You Pay For
While Urban Bonfire™ by Oasis Outdoor Living™ outdoor kitchens are certainly not the cheapest option for your outdoor kitchen build, the old adage “Build it Once, Build it for Life” truly applies. Rather than having to replace rusted cabinetry and hardware every 5 years or so, Urban Bonfire™ comes with a 10-year warranty and the peace-of-mind in knowing their marine-grade aluminum cabinetry will long outlast this span of time and even outlast your indoor kitchen.
What this means for you is long-term savings by investing a little more upfront, a concept every discerning homeowner can relate to.
No Apologies in Design Options
Urban Bonfire™ offers no apologies in options available in their outdoor kitchens. Their motto is “Your Kitchen Outdoors” and they truly stand by this concept in their design choices. You won’t find features such as raised bar top seating (although Oasis Outdoor Living can create this feature in your Urban Bonfire™ outdoor kitchen using our custom machined brackets) or one hundred different cabinet colors and hardware styles to choose from.
At the end of the day, we’re OK with this. Urban Bonfire™ by Oasis Outdoor Living™ outdoor kitchens are designed to be as artful as they are functional, and their cabinetry options and color choices provide the perfect canvas to add your own personal style and color choices through your countertop and appliance selections.
