Wood stacked on the ground wicks moisture up out of the dirt and never really dries. By February the bottom row is the row nobody can burn.
Six feet of steel holds a third of a cord and a little more, which is a season of weekend fires for most people, and it fits against a garage wall or along the back of a deck without taking the whole patio.
Why this one
Made in the USA by the Alexander family, who have been welding these since 1927. Hand arc welded from 16 gauge American steel with precision drilled holes, finished in a UV stable powder coat in black or brown. A lifetime structural warranty comes with it.
Choosing your size
This one wants 6 feet of reasonably level ground. If you buy wood by the cord rather than the face cord, go up: the 12 foot holds three quarters of a cord and the 16 foot holds a full one.

What it does not do
Firewood is not included, and neither is a cover. The seasoning cover is a separate item and is the one imported part of the system, so it sits outside the structural warranty. Nothing about the rack needs the cover to work, but wood under an open sky takes a lot longer to dry.
What goes with it
A seasoning cover is what turns a stack into seasoned wood rather than wet wood held off the ground, and a log carrier saves the trips. If you are moving wood across a yard rather than a patio, the firewood cart carries 300 pounds at a time.
