Product Information

Ultra-portable, compact design: Fully setup, the FirePit+ measures 27 wide x 13 deep by 15.8 inches high (10.5 inches high with the legs folded). It’s large enough to hold standard cordwood yet compact enough not to take up too much space in your garage or apartment. Larry Campbell, a licensed electrical contractor and member of The Spruce Home Improvement Review Board Four months of testing confirmed that this is not a completely smokeless fire pit. In fact, we felt like it reduced the smoke compared to a traditional wood-burning fire pit, by about half (depending on the fan speed). So if you don't want to smell like smoke at all, this would not be the best option. However, we still think that this is a great option for traveling with since it is very small and easy to carry, and we continue to enjoy the smart features.

But just because it’s called a smokeless fire pit doesn’t mean that it’s actually zero smoke—many will emit smoke to varying degrees. Still, it won’t compare to the amount of smoke coming from a regular fire pit. “The smokeless magic is in the design,” says Sebok. “Unlike traditional pits, smokeless fire pits have a double-wall design. This ensures that the air between the walls gets heated and is then pushed out over the fire. The result is a ‘secondary combustion’ which further degrades the particulate in smoke.” Regardless of which portable fire pit you choose, it’s important to understand which features you want and are most important to look for while looking at firepit options. Features To Look for When Buying Portable Fire Pits The FirePit+ has a larger burn chamber and a higher heat output than the original FirePit. This means that it can accommodate larger logs and produce more heat, which is great for colder weather or larger groups of people. Grill grate

Fussing with wood, waiting for a fire to die down, and then responsibly disposing of ashes can be a hassle, especially if you’re looking for a fire pit to take tailgating. We found the Outland Living Mega Firebowl, which is a propane fire pit, required practically no setup time and we loved how the flame size could easily be controlled with a knob. Plus, this fire bowl is truly smokeless since it uses gas, a clean-burning fuel. Technically, this is called a Rubens tube, and while it’s an old technology, the Bluetooth is a certainly a modern touch. As you might expect, most of this project is workshop time, cutting MDF and plastic. The audio system is off-the-shelf and drives some car stereo speakers. The results looked good, and although it always makes us nervous building things that carry propane gas, it seems to work well enough from where we’re sitting.

It’s portable enough to take on trips with my travel trailer and for car camping. The Loom Fire Pit Speaker is good to sit on top of a table making it a good alternative to a regular fire pit table. If you’ve already got the perfect table and chairs for a fire pit why not grab something like this to set down on top?This fire pit is 18 inches deep with a cone in the middle, which helps centralize its heat and minimize the smoke from firewood. We felt consistent heat from 5 feet away, even though Tiki only claims this model provides up to 4 feet of radiant heat. Aside from its impressive heat output, we also appreciated its durable and heavy design, which prevents it from being toppled over in the case of heavy winds. The included cloth cover is also great for protecting the unit after it has cooled. The ash pan was easy to empty, but we recommend investing in a fire pit brush or ash poker to help the pellet (or wood) ash fall into the pan.
