I compared this item to the name brand one we all see that's more then twice the price. I decided to buy and try this one out and so far I'm impressed with how good it burns. The size is great and it's awesome this comes with all the necessary accessories. The other name branded model charges for each of the accessories the Members Mark includes. This burns great but take note it's not "smokeless" I don't know why they write that because starting the fire you get smoke because that's what fires do when they start. I will admit the smoke later is minimal. This puts out great heat and the flame is pretty to look at. It comes with a stand, but I don't suggest putting this on top of anything you don't want to stain or slightly burn. You can put some paver stones or cinder blocks below the stand which will protect anything below this fire pit. This thing is practically assembled already. All you have to do is simply stack the few sections or pieces on top of each other. It takes about 5 minutes to do it. This thing is well packaged and protected, too. I highly recommend this item as you will be impressed.

I've only had this a day so my rating is really for first impression, not for long term ownership and usage. This is my first smokeless fire pit and this is what I learned: -- There is no assembly as such, just a few parts that stack on top of each other -- Make sure you firewood is short enough to fit the opening as a tent type arrangement of the wood is not recommended if you want to maintain low smoke -- The fire gets very hot, I suppose because of the improved airflow and containment by the walls. We figured the embers would not burn out until the wee hours but they are completely out at bedtime, probably because the heat is so concentrated -- The appearance and heat from the fire are amazing, almost surreal. -- There is smoke when you first light the fire but little to none thereafter. -- There was a slight chemical smell, probably from some coatings. I expect that to be a one off thing. Overall, I am very pleased so far. Was going back and forth on whether I should spend the money on a fancy fire pti but it is easily worth the money. It's not just some over-designed, glorified fire pit, it is quite different from what you are likely used to and works really well.

Decent fire pit for the price. It’s a little clunky to clean out compared to the big names. I would give it 5 stars but the orange enamel is chipping off after 6 weeks of owning it. Tried to open a ticket or do a return and Sam’s won’t take the return

We've researched and looked at various versions of a smokeless fire pit for quite some time and decided on this one. Very little smoke when first lighting and puts off a good amount of heat. The word burns nicely and super easy clean up. Love the accessories that were included, other brands they are sold separately. We love this firepit and highly recommend!

I’ve been looking at smokeless fire pits for a long time and finally settled on this one. I love it! It’s a great size and looks nice. It does smoke until the fire gets going well, but then it’s terrific (and mostly smokeless). I highly recommend this to anyone in the market.

The firepit is great! Very little smoke once going and good amount of heat.

Love that it came with a cover and it doesn’t leave you smelling too much like campfire

If your looking for a Solo, look no more

We used it once so far. Really like it!!

A great low priced alternative to the over priced name brand.
