Awesome product, affordable, looks great!

The flame looks very realistic and in my opinion looks as good as those much higher priced,made and enclosure with an oak mantel and all looks great.

I got this for my camping trips and for my RV travels because some locations will not allow fires if you don't have a fire pit. This fire pit has been impressive all the way around for several reasons.

It is well constructed and very easy to assemble and disassemble. The trickiest part was trying to figure out how the top went on the bottom because disassembled it is flipped over inside and at first I thought it locked that way.

Another great thing about this was it was easy to get a fire going for me in it. A few pieces of cardboard and a little lighter fluid and I had a fire. The way the venting is makes it easy to get a fire going and keep it going. You can physically see the air flow in one of the pictures but often when I was watching the fire I would see flame circles around the holes where the air was flowing.

I really did not believe this would be 'smokeless' but to my surprise it really does almost emit no smoke. It isn't completely smokeless but I had a charcoal fire in the background of the video that was emitting more smoke than this pit. I was burning paper and dried wood and almost had zero I could see the majority of the time.

I can tell you what it does emit is heat and this thing kicks out a lot more than I thought that it would.

It disassembles and cleans fairly easy and there was minimal heat changes to the metal after the initial burn. A few different colors on the non-painted metal but nothing else was changed.

It disassembles and packs up really easy and fits in the under carriage of my RV perfectly for the next use.

If I had anything negative about this it would be that the size of this pit limits the size of the wood. Your wood ideally needs to be around 1 foot - maybe a few inches longer but not longer than that. You won't be burning your 2 foot house firewood in it without it sticking over the top.

Overall, this is just a great fire-pit and I have fully enjoyed using it and having something easy to set up and tear down. The metal is good quality and nothing about this fire pit feels like cheapness to me. The price is a little higher but the quality matches it. I would recommend this.

So far, I don’t think I could be happier with this product. Delivered in perfect condition. Super simple to put together. Storage/carry bag is sturdy and well designed.
This thing puts out some heat and very little smoke.
I think we will spend more cool evenings on the patio.

Quality fireplace at a reasonable price.

I love this item; projects flame lights that flicker. Makes my fireplace hearth look very cozy; i set it on a grate for more realistic look.

It's simple, some things in life simple works. It has a infrared bulb but maybe 500 watt heat output. Then 1000 watt coil inside for raw heat with a fan. So with this you get best of both worlds. Fast heat and projected infrared heat as well. Quit ,heats up the room fast. Infrared is no joke and with raw 1000 watt of heat to add to it really makes this unit shine. Oh, it looks real. 85% looks real fire 🔥 too.

Let's pretend you did your research and understand this is basically as close as possible without too much infringement of the popular name brand bucket stove with a certain "singular" name.

And that one has variations and accessories.

This unit, if you want to spend a quarter K, works. Up to you if you shop around for size and features.

See photos. I'll update if something bad happens to the metal in too soon a time. The interior metal had blackened during firing especially around the upper vents, but that burnt off by the end.

All wood is consumed, the aeration this design allows is a very efficient wood-burning process. Almost no smoke, and very warm. It was spinning the ceiling fan in our open top Gazebo. Each vent hole made a cone of swirling hot air that the fire surrounded. Very pretty and nice to watch.

50 felt like 70 in the no-wall Gazebo.

You cannot touch any metal while it's firing except the feet. I had it up on 4x4 post pieces for this initial firing.
Next time we use it... I will put the feet directly on the faux-boards of the Gazebo, they shouldn't melt. They're some sort of plastic boards from the local hardware chain. I will however put a cardboard circle under the unit to see if that gets hot/starts smoking... I had put my hand under while it was at its hottest and couldn't feel heat... so I think this may even work on tables. But I want another use to see. If things go south I would update.

The metal gets nice and hot enough to blue... don't expect the inside to be shiny forever.
I will update if the EXTERIOR ever starts to change, though.

We are quite pleased and may even take this camping after we fashion a grate in case we can get around burn bans since the state parks won't even let you use firepits ( only enclosed flames like grills) during certain seasons. We feel like camp fires are 2/5 the reason to camp.

It looks so real. It required no assembly, just batteries for the remote. It gives a good heat output. I love everything about this fireplace. I highly recommend!
