We bought the Solo Range Bonfire so our writer might put it to the test in her own backyard. Keep checking out for our full product evaluation. When you go camping, you expect to develop a campfire. This can take hours from collecting wood and removing debris from individuals who used the campfire pit prior to you, including the time to developing up a bonfire and stiring the flames. Now you can get rid of additional time and hassle by bringing a portable pit with you to your next camping adventure. It comes in handy to set up in an instant in your backyard, too.
The Solo Stove Bonfire is a 19. 5 inch-wide wood-burning fire pit made from highly durable, premium-grade stainless steel. The steel drum has a minimal style and polished finish that didn't remove from the old-school campfire aesthetic we were looking forand it looked simply as excellent when it wasn't burning. The Spruce/ Deanna Mc, Cormack The pit itself is designed for the most efficient fire you've ever experienced. It's a double-wall wood-burning firepit. The flames build from two spots. It has a base that allows oxygen to directly sustain the embers from the bottom and vent holes near the top of the canister that allow heated oxygen to sustain existing flames.
Even if you're as familiar with outside campfires as we are, using this fire pit will totally shock you. The fire in our Solo Stove was greater and hotter than any fire we have actually ever built with hardly any effort. It was simple to fire up and we truly could not believe the length of time the fire lasted. One of the Solo Stove's finest functions is that it declares to produce less smoke than your typical fire. We felt we like we could sit closer to the fire without smoke in our face and likewise pitch our tents/park our cars and truck closer to the fire without having to stress over excess smoke drafting in.
We wouldn't select the Bonfire as a heat source while winter season outdoor camping or for someone who gets cold feet. Also, like an oven, it burns through wood quicker because it maintains a greater temperature. Establishing and putting away the Bonfire takes about a minute. Aside from the fire ring which helps focus the heat, the entire drum is one piece and completely it just weighs about 20 pounds. The entire thing is simple to move considering that it's relatively light-weight considering its size and burn power. Given its size, the best location for a Solo Range Bonfire is in a backyard or for an overnight vehicle outdoor camping journey.
The Spruce/ Deanna Mc, Cormack We utilized our Bonfire while car camping instead of the pre-existing fire pit in order to avoid building a fire over other people's leftover garbage. We conserved money on fire starters and we were able to "leave no trace" when we left. The Bonfire includes a black nylon carrying bag with a drawstring, handle, and Solo Range logo. The walls of the Solo Stove get extremely hot while a fire is lit, so we needed to be extra careful with our young boy near the fire. Also, just like any fire pit, you need to be familiar with your regional burn laws and no burn days prior to trying your Solo Stove.
