BeyondHOME Smokeless Portable Fire Pit (Open Box)

I had a chance to use a Solo Stove Bonfire 2 at an AirBnB we stayed at and enjoyed it enough I was going to buy one. After having done some research though I came across this Beyond Home unit for a lot less money. I like the fact that the stand and the cover were included in the price for this one too. I also added a Dragonfire mesh spark screen to use with this too as we burn a lot of Pine and it can throw off a lot of larger embers. As for usage the Beyond Home outperforms the Solo Stove because of the slits cut out of the side. The heat really does radiate outwards from these warming your legs. That was my big complaint with the Solo as you had to stand above it to get a lot of heat. While I will not say either the Solo or the Beyond Home are "smokeless" fire pits I'll say they do in fact smoke less than a traditional fire pit. The big plus to me though is how much more efficiently they burn. This makes cleanup a breeze as ALL of the wood is burned leaving nothing but some ash to dump out the next day. I do wish the ring on top of the Beyond Home was removeable for easier removal of ash like the Solo but it's a minor annoyance. I've had around 30 fires in this Beyond Home fire pit and so far it's holding up great. It has discolored from the heat but I'm not concerned with that. Overall we get a ton of enjoyment out of this and I very much recommend saving your money with this one over the Solo.
