Review after three months Ozark Trail Fire Pit 15" Smokeless

[@pacificbushcraftandfirecra6358]

I plan on acquiring one of these style stoves soon. Waiting for the price to drop a little. I might be waiting a long time, the way things are going! Thanks for sharing your review!

[@FernbarkFrist]

They work great. You will want to get one bigger than this one, as micro-managing the wood will certainly sour you on the experience. Carolina Chris has one, and I am pretty sure he likes his.

I have super mini no name version of this stove that has proved to be useful over time. Thanks Brother!

[@FernbarkFrist]

I have a cheap PRC stove too. Works fine. I don't see a real reason to spend extra money for a name on the side of these things.

[@shovelhead8]

Looks not bad to me. Nice hat. Thank you for the review, Fernbark. Stay safe and stay warm

[@FernbarkFrist]

Works fine, it is a good deal compared to the competitor.

[@tracyphillips3325]

Hi Fernbark. Nice review. I've been thinking about getting one of these. Very informative.

[@FernbarkFrist]

They work great, but I think you would be happier with a larger version than 15 inches.

[@tracyphillips3325]

@FernbarkFrist I found a 21 inch. Different brand, for just a little higher in price.

[@FernbarkFrist]

@@tracyphillips3325It will be worth the extra money.

[@MrMatt713]

@@tracyphillips3325 curious, what brand and price??

[@tracyphillips3325]

@MrMatt713 , I can't really remember now. You can Google it, and a lot of different brands will pop up.

Hey man. Nice one. Smashed that thumbs up!

[@JasonWicklund]

Pack your wood tightly, on end with the tips just below the holes, and you’ll get a good long hot burn

[@kimfroman2023]

Got mine yesterday. $97 at Wal-Mart.

[@ruckinehround6965]

Have you tried pellets ?

[@FernbarkFrist]

Not in this unit, but I have tried them in my solo stove. Works pretty good.

[@Henry-if9pu]

Coals? Do you use charcoal?

[@FernbarkFrist]

Not in this product, but once your wood burns down, it becomes coals.

[@BryanSeigneur0]

maybe raise it on some bricks so it can breathe in on the bottom instead of putting it in a hole

[@FernbarkFrist]

The reason the hole is there is so that you can feel the heat from the fire. If it sits up higher you cannot feel the warmth on your legs. I have been using a solo stove up there for nine years. Believe me on this.
