Wayfair cuts grills up to 83% off

Bob Vila reported on May 18 that Wayfair was running early Memorial Day discounts on grills, fire pits and patio furniture, with markdowns that the home-improvement publisher said reached as high as 83% off. The article, written by Glenda Taylor, linked readers to Wayfair sale pages and several product examples. Wayfair’s own Memorial Day clearance page says the promotion covers outdoor furniture, outdoor lighting and decor, and other seasonal categories. The sale arrives ahead of Memorial Day weekend, when retailers typically push outdoor-living promotions. Wayfair’s sale page says shoppers can buy outdoor furniture at up to 50% off, while category pages show individual items discounted more deeply. Product listings and delivery estimates on those pages can change as inventory moves. ### Which products did Bob Vila single out? Glenda Taylor’s May 18 Bob Vila article said the sale included patio furniture, grills, umbrellas and fire pits. The piece described the event as an early Memorial Day promotion and directed readers to Wayfair listings for outdoor items. Bob Vila’s article said the biggest savings reached 83% off. The story did not present the promotion as a single blanket markdown across all outdoor goods; instead, it pointed readers to selected listings and sale pages where discounts varied by item. ### What does Wayfair’s own sale page say? Wayfair’s Memorial Day clearance page says shoppers can find deals on “outdoor furniture up to 50% off” and promoted seasonal items including outdoor fireplaces and fire pits. The same page says the sale is aimed at summer purchases such as patio setups, umbrellas and outdoor games. Wayfair’s category listings also show item-level discounts beyond the headline category caps. Fire pit listings visible on May 18 included products marked as “Memorial Day Deal” and “Sale,” with prices and delivery windows attached to each listing. ### Are there examples of the discounted prices? Wayfair’s fire pit category page showed a Kloss square steel fire pit by Andover Mills at $89.99, down from $102.99, and a Loon Peak propane fire pit table at $315.99, down from $679.99, on May 18. The same page listed a Latitude Run propane fire pit table at $256.99 from $303.99 and a Dobbs round fire pit table at $389.99 from $459.99. Wayfair’s broader Memorial Day clearance page also showed discounts across indoor and outdoor categories, including living room seating and lighting, alongside the outdoor promotion. The outdoor pages surfaced shipping promises such as delivery by May 20, May 21 and May 22 for some items, depending on the product. ### How should shoppers read the “up to” discount claim? The phrase “up to 83% off” in Bob Vila’s article refers to the highest markdowns available on some products, not every grill, fire pit or patio set in the sale. Wayfair’s own pages show a mix of discount levels, with some products reduced modestly and others cut much more steeply. Retail sale pages also change frequently as sellers rotate featured items, adjust prices or run through stock. Product availability, delivery timing and the exact markdown on a given listing may differ from what was shown when Bob Vila’s article was published on May 18. ### Where can readers check the sale now? Wayfair’s Memorial Day clearance page remains the main landing page for the promotion, and its category pages for fire pits and outdoor furniture show current pricing and shipping information. Bob Vila’s May 18 article links directly to those Wayfair pages and to selected products. Memorial Day falls on May 25 in 2026, and Wayfair’s sale pages are likely to remain the key reference point for any changes in price, inventory or featured outdoor items through the holiday period.
