EAST OAKFuoco Smokeless Fire Pit 21'' for Patio and Outdoor, Stainless Steel Firepit Wood Burning Fireplace with Carrying Bag, Portable Outdoor Fire Pit with Stand & Removable Ash Pan for Outside

so far so good. it has performed well after dropping this thing off at my redneck pals party spot where it has survived a fair amount of abuse and neglect. i was a little worried about corrosion on the inside with all the rain on the gulf coast and not being cleaned out like it should but it seems to be holding up fine even being used as a trash incinerator. would purchase this model once more if needed

Great for a patio, gives you a nice sized fire for chilly evenings without smoke in your eyes. Win.

bought this for my dad for his birthday and he absolutely loves it. He uses it multiple times a week and on all his camping trips.

I was looking for a portable fire pit to carry on the roof rack of my SUV on backcountry camping trips in the desert. I was able to secure it well on the roof rack with a smaller size elastic cargo net. It was large enough for standard size 16" firewood and even oversized pieces burnt just fine albeit they stuck out a little above the rim as shown in the picture. It performed as advertised with the exception that most of the ashes did not fall to the pan below as it seemed to imply they would from the product pictures. This was not a problem though as it was easy enough to dump the ashes out of the upper section as well. It burned very efficiently once it got going with very little smoke and ash left over. It feels and looks durable and I'm confident it will last for several years if stored in a dry place. As shown in the picture, it worked well for roasting hot dogs over the fire. My only wish was that there was a lid available so that it could be quickly covered in the event it started to rain on an already ongoing fire in order to keep the firewood and ashes dry until the weather cleared up. Just a thought.

I didn't know what to expect from this given its price, but it's actually well built with non-magnetic stainless steel...with 'style'. Will it dent or bend if you drop it? YES....but you should expect that. The conical shape of it does make it hard to grab. I may make some stainless wire loops through the top interior vents to create grab points to lift when cool.The unit is surprisingly compact in its bag and is an almost perfect size when assembled for use. 4 to maybe 6 people could get up close and intimate with this fire pit.If you are looking for a lid, the fire pits top OD is 19 inches. I found the Hisencn Fire Pit Lid for Solo Stove Bonfire 1.0 & 2.0-19.5" Stainless Steel Cover, which has an ID of 19.5 inches , leaving you with only .25 inches of slop from side to side. It is also non-magnetic stainless steel and is well-constructed. Just flip the EAST OAK Fuoco smokeless fire pit TOP RING over, and you are good to go.Rather than buying and storing a log splitter, I plan on burning cheap wood pellets. If they don't work out, I'll update this review.When dumping ash...it might be a good idea to run a piece of blue painters' tape over the outside bottom vents to prevent ash leaks while dumping. I mean...nobody likes it when their ash leaks....Right?So far, I'm pleased with what I see...just not crazy about the travel bag.Update: Wood pellets burn quite well in this. Maybe too well. Initially I put in around 5 pounds of pellets. Once they got started, everyone needed to back away from the fire pit. It was pretty intense.Here's the bad news, the pellets burn extremely HOT and FAST. Be prepared to keep feeding the beast. Don't wait until the flames die out...otherwise there's gonna be a LOT of smoke (and I do mean a LOT... as it smolders) Once the flames start back up, the smoke will dissipate. There might be a trick or learners' curve to using pellets.Overall, I have no complaints, and the painters tape trick worked.

Perfect gift

Quality is good.

Very sturdy. I bought this to dump stove ash in and it is perfect for backyard blazes as well.The storage bag is overkill but may come in handy for something.
