Buy it

The smokeless wood-burning pit that gets the balance of size, weight, and clean burn right for most patios.

• Double-wall 360-degree airflow delivers a genuinely low-smoke burn once it's up to temperature
• At roughly 15 pounds it's a true one-person lift to move or store off-season
• The 2.0 update adds a removable base plate and ash pan, so cleanup is a tip-and-empty job
• 304 stainless build and a lifetime warranty that owners report is honored

• Radiant heat is modest - it warms a close circle, not a whole patio
• Cooking needs extra accessories that add up quickly
