The Only Single Side Burner That Works as Both a Countertop and a Drop-In — 15,000 BTUs Either Way
The Sunstone Ruby Series SUN13VSB adapts to your layout instead of forcing you to commit to one installation type.
The Sunstone Ruby Series SUN13VSB is a 13-inch single Versa burner built for flexible outdoor kitchens — install it as a permanent drop-in unit, or use the integrated adjustable legs to set it up as a freestanding countertop burner instead. A lifetime-guaranteed brass burner delivers up to 15,000 BTUs across 110 square inches of cooking space, with a 304 stainless steel hood and body and a removable cover for when it's not in use.
SUN13VSB Features & Benefits
A single burner that fits your timeline, not the other way around.
15,000 BTU
Lifetime-Guaranteed Brass Burner
The brass Versa burner delivers up to 15,000 BTUs with an adjustable, all-surround flame — enough heat for wok cooking and stir-fry, with the control to simmer a sauce without scorching it.
Two Ways
Countertop or Drop-In
Integrated adjustable legs let you run this burner freestanding on a countertop or remove them to drop it into a cutout — most single side burners only support one installation style.
304 SS
Stainless Hood & Body
A 304 stainless steel hood and body resist rust and pitting through repeated outdoor exposure, keeping the unit looking right next to your main grill for years.
110 sq in
Real Cooking Room
110 square inches of raised, 3/8-inch stainless grate gives you space to run a saucepan or skillet without crowding it onto your main grill.
Piezo
Reliable One-Push Ignition
Piezo valve ignition lights the burner with a single push, and a rubber-gripped gas valve knob doubles as a heat buffer so you're not gripping hot metal mid-cook.

Deep Dive — SUN13VSB
▶
Two Installation Styles From One Burner
Drop it into a 12-inch by 17 1/2-inch by 4-inch cutout for a permanent, built-in look, or keep the adjustable legs attached and set it up as a standalone countertop burner — useful if you're not ready to commit to a fixed island layout, or want a portable second burner for a patio table.
Choose Your Fuel Type
The SUN13VSB is available in liquid propane (SUN13VSB-LP) or natural gas (SUN13VSB-NG) configurations — select your fuel type above to match your existing gas line.
Who It's For — The Deck & Den Take
▶
The Deck & Den Take — If you're still finalizing your island layout, this is a low-risk way to add Versa burner capability now: use it as a countertop unit while you finish planning, then drop it into a cutout later without buying a different burner. It's one of the few single side burners built to do both.
-
Cooks who need a dedicated sauce or side station without committing counter space to a full double burner.
-
Anyone still finalizing their island layout who wants to use a Versa burner now and build it in later.
-
Smaller patios or compact outdoor kitchens where a single 13-inch burner fits where a double burner won't.
-
Buyers who want a portable second burner for a patio table or temporary setup, thanks to the removable legs.
-
Anyone replacing a basic single side burner who wants real Versa-burner heat and a lifetime-guaranteed burner.

Frequently Asked Questions
▶
What's the difference between the LP and NG versions?
▶
SUN13VSB-LP runs on liquid propane and SUN13VSB-NG runs on natural gas. Both share the same burner, dimensions, and features — select the fuel type that matches your existing gas line.
Can I really use this as a countertop burner, or does it need to be built in?
▶
Both — it ships with integrated adjustable legs for countertop use, and those legs can be removed for a permanent drop-in installation into a cutout.
How many BTUs does the SUN13VSB produce?
▶
The brass Versa burner produces up to 15,000 BTUs.
What cutout size do I need if I install it as a drop-in?
▶
The unit requires a 12 in. wide by 17 1/2 in. deep by 4 in. tall cutout with the legs attached, or 2 1/4 in. tall with the legs removed. Confirm your island's opening against these dimensions before ordering.
Does it come with a cover?
▶
Yes, a removable protective cover is included to shield the burner from outdoor elements when not in use.
What's covered under warranty?
▶
Sunstone covers the brass burner, cooking grids, and housings for the lifetime of the original purchaser, and other components such as the igniter, valves, and wiring for one year. Full terms are in the warranty guide above.
Can I place several of these side by side?
▶
Yes — its compact 13-inch footprint and flexible mounting make it easy to position multiple units side by side, in a corner, or oriented vertically or horizontally to fit your layout.
How is each burner lit?
▶
Piezo valve ignition lights the burner with a single push, with a rubber-gripped gas valve knob that helps keep your hand away from the heat.
How is this different from the Sunstone double burner (SUN13VDB)?
▶
The SUN13VDB is a fixed double burner with 30,000 BTUs total. The SUN13VSB is a single 15,000 BTU burner with the added flexibility of countertop or drop-in installation — a better fit if you only need one burner or aren't ready to commit to a built-in layout.
What if it doesn't fit my island?
▶
If the unit doesn't fit your cutout or isn't right for your setup, it's covered by Deck & Den's 45-day return policy — just contact us before sending it back.
