Solo StoveRanger with Stand Portable Fire Pit Stainless Steel Portable Fire Pits for Wood Burning and Low Smoke Great Camping Stove for S'mores and Hot Dogs | 15x12.5 Inches Outdoor Fire Pits

This is the mki version which i mistakingly bought instead of the mkii.Still it is very very good under our gazeebo and is relatively smoke free, it is more smokeless once it gets going and is lovely and toasty.It is expensive but we'll worth it to stay smokeless, be aware of the cheaper chinese once as they definetly are not smokeless.I was on a recent camping trip with friends and they got a temu one for £35 and I bought my solo stove, we put them both close to each other and the solo stove was perfect with no smoke but the cheap one smoked a lot, same wood in both.

Pay the money, you won't regret it. I'm a seasoned burner. Pits, chimineas and all that. This thing is something else. Very easy to light. Very quick to move on to the big logs (means less kindling to chop). Very hot. Very easy to clean out with hardly any ash at all and no more smoky clothes. Its not completely smokeless but there's not much there at all if you're burning the right stuff. Looks good too and is very solid.

The headline says most of it. I bought this as a camping fire pit - but have mostly used it in garden settings so far. It's quite pretty when not lit - in a stainless steel kind of way - but comes into its own when alight. It smokes a little to start with until it gets hot - then, as long as you keep the wood below the inner rim of holes then minimal smoke (but not absolutely none) comes from it. It doesn't give off quite as much heat as an open fire pit - but minus the smoke means you can get much closer to it without getting tears in your eyes every give minutes - and you don't really notice. The secondary combustion at the rim holes can be very pretty - at its best when the fire inside actually touches the inside walls to pre-heat the air. It's fairly heavy - and feels well made to last a lot of years. The stainless does discolour and turn a golden colour near the rim - but I've heard this can be cleaned up if required - personally it's not a problem for me and I'll leave it as it is. I'll probably end up getting a bigger one to be more permanent feature on my decking. Very impressed

Very very good but far too expensive for what it is.

This fire pit is a really beautiful design and looks stunning. It appears to be very well engineered and is very sturdy. However, it's not cheap and I feel it's slightly over-priced, especially as I believe the optional Spark Guard is essential and the combined price for the Ranger, complete with stand, plus the Guard, adds up to £400. Mind you, the design is also quite unique so I don't feel completely "ripped-off".The packaging is good and appears to adequately protect the contents from transit damage and mine arrived completely blemish free. The included carry-bag makes transporting the Ranger a simple task and it will also accommodate the Spark Guard. There's absolutely no self-assembly involved. All you need to do is to make sure the "ring" is the right way round and your wood isn't too long to fit within the fire chamber. so it doesn't interfere with airflow through the secondary burner holes.I will comment further after I've had the opportunity to fire-up my Ranger 2 or 3 times.

The media could not be loaded. Pleased that it met expectations for the first of many camping trips. It really is a low to no smoke experience using kiln dried and other dry wood. Heat output is fine if you sit close by and we used a griddle to cook on top which worked better than expected. We will likely buy the official hub and griddle accessory as the only fire version is pretty flimsy. The secondary burn effect is very satisfying and visible. Great flame. Not having a removable ash pan is not a big deal, just invert it into a bin or bag when cold. Little ash left behind vs a decent quantity of wood burned. Tempted to upgrade to a larger size but it would essentially be the same experience, but consume more wood. Recommended.

Only down side is that this is the mk1 without the ability to remove ash without turning it upside down and shaking. Apart from that it’s brilliant.

I have needed to replace my fire pit for a while and looked at this one (ranger) and also the bonfire version. This one comes with its own carry bag as its portable - certainly big enough for my patio - quite big for a portable fire - really wouldn't want to have to carry it too far. I bought the stand as well and tested it out on the grass - kept the fire going for several hours and not one burnt blade of grass which is brilliant! It says it is smoke free and that is true but you have to get the fire going really hot and fast to start with. My only fault would be that there was a slight dint in the fire pit when we opened the box up - but didn't send it back as it would eventually get some wear and tear anyway.
