Gorgeous landscape for your Yukon, you and your wife to sit beneath the stars! This is much the same way I use my pit with the exception of being over the water on a dock. They do eat the wood but that's why I bought the thing. I'm a firebug at heat and love to play with the fire in the shiny hoop! Excellent review and further reinforcement to my recent purchase. I am a bit envious you have the older 30" version. Ours is 27" and appears not to have the depth your older model has. Either way, my family is enjoying gazing into the caveman television instead of viewing the world as edited by the mainstream. Cheers to you and many more hearty fires and the simple pleasures of life!

I have run a wood stove for 20 years. In the east most people only burn hardwood. Out west they burn pines. Spruce, conifers softwoods. Lots of names for it, but they don’t have a lit of hardwood out there. I was in southern Colorado about 15 years ago and asked a guy in a small shop what they were burning in the stove. He said “junk wood”. They were in an arid area where very little grew except scrubby juniper. The burned what ever they could get their hands on. If it burns and gives off heat and doesn’t have some kind of toxic or itchy fumes, then burn it.

You're spot on with that comment on the size. I've owned both the Bonfire and Yukon, and I'd never recommend the Yukon for the average family. It requires a LOT of wood to achieve a secondary burn and it's not practical for most people. If you live in the country and have a boatload of firewood available all the time, sure. For more people the Bonfire is the one to get.

This larger, well-made one is awesome. If I remember I cut the bottom out of a 16 qt stock pot and inserted a 12 qt. stock pot and then cut the necessary holes by pushing holes threw with an ice pick and then using a step drill. It was difficult with the with the stainless pots but I love my stove. I guess you could say its a poor man's solo stove. I have had some success using wood pellets. You have to keep the fire below the holes, but a gassifyer stove burns down, not up. Start the fire on the top.

I scrolled down a bit looking to see if anyone asked but didn't see it asked. If you were using this as a heating source in a tipi, when going to sleep how long do you think it would burn until it went out and having to get up and throw more fire into the pit? I can kind of seeing keeping a tipi warm an issue as they do not retain any heat once the source is stopped. It would probably lead to interrupted sleep every night.
@breakheartorchard47612 жыл бұрын
I dont know anything about tipi. So this is just speculation. The yukon would be too much fire for something like that. Maybe a ranger would be appropriately sized but these things are not designed to burn slow and long. They burn fast and hot. Running one inside a structure of any kind seems dangerous.

I'm considering one for my yard, typical urban neighborhood. I've been through so many of the basic cheap metal ones that last 1 season it seems, 2 if you're lucky. The heat just destroys those suckers in short time, along with the elements when you don't always cover it up!! But the screens are always so cheap and never last long, the mesh that surrounds some of them is equally thin and cheap and short lived. So I'm looking at spending that extra money for quality and durability. With that being said, is the screen on this considerably better than those of the typical home depot/lowes fire pits I speak of?

He said 'I burn trash in it and smokes far less than my free standing firebowl." He does not care much for the romance of firelight and heat on a fall or winter night like I do. So it looks like if you are just burning trash stuff to get rid of it then go with these higher efficiency stoves that while mostly hiding the fire do burn hotter combusting the smoke. But if you are burning clean old lumber like pallet wood or other woods to enjoy the fire light and radiant heat like when you sit around it drinking a few beers and grooving on it then go with a metal firebowl on a metal stand. I start off burning some cardboard cereal boxes, egg cartons etc to get the wood going in my metal free standing firebowl.

Is this something that could be used on top of a concrete slab as long as it was on the stand?
@breakheartorchard47612 жыл бұрын
Like a patio? Or driveway or by a pool? absolutely get the little ring stand and you would be fine.

Does the bottom get too hot for setting it on grass or a wood deck? Could it be use in a tipi?
@breakheartorchard47613 жыл бұрын
It doesn’t burn the grass. I know that people put them on decks but usually have some sort of fireproof material under them. I have never tried to heat a tipi.

They have a stand for the solo stove so you can place it on wood or grass with zero damage.

So, if the pit was sunk in the ground by 8 to 10 inches, the heat would hit your shins more easily?
@breakheartorchard47613 жыл бұрын
I suppose that is true. But it would be less convenient to put wood in and being sunken into the ground might create corrosion issues.

The solution is dig a hole and put the solo stove in it.

I’ve seen reviews that these send heat straight up in a column and are less warm to people sitting around it than standard pits. Have you found this?
@breakheartorchard47613 жыл бұрын
If you are sitting by it the heat below shin level is much lower than an open fire.

Its not very efficient, it delivers a lot of fresh air into the fire so wood burns quickly, whole non smoke idea means it consumes large amount of wood in short time?
@breakheartorchard47612 жыл бұрын
Mine, the Yukon goes thru a lot of wood. That is ideal for me since I have lots of stuff to burn but if I lived elsewhere I would get a bonfire or ranger model. We still love it after 2 years.

I'm confused as to why I would need to cover stainless steel with a plastic cover?
@breakheartorchard47612 жыл бұрын
I suppose you can wash the stainless fron time to time but you would have leaves , pollen, dirt bird crap, glass clippings and rain in it. I can’t imagine you wouldn’t want it covered.

Have you used the stove to cook over the fire?
@breakheartorchard47613 жыл бұрын
We use the roasting sticks frequently to cook meat over the fire. Always wonderful.

So did u simply put the spark arrester on it when you were ready to go in for the night?
@breakheartorchard47613 жыл бұрын
Sometimes when I am out there with it, I keep piling logs in it. And the spark arrester wont sit down properly so I wait till it sits a little lower to settle it on. And yes, I wait till it is just coals before I head in and leave the spark arrester on it.

How would it go if it was in a hole in the ground with an airspace around it to get more lower leg heat ?
@matthewmorris17532 жыл бұрын
I would think it’s fine if there’s air space. The fire itself should pull the air.
