A friend of mine recently brought one of these on a camping trip to Scotland, when he got it out, I could feel my eyes rolling, it looked like it was going to fall apart within seconds, but it didn't, and the performance was amazing. I couldn't believe how well it worked, and like you said, it burns damp wood quite easily, with very little smoke, by the end of the first night I was converted, easily one of the best fire pits I've ever sat around.. Purchased one myself straight away, and have never looked back, a truly amazing product!

I call it "Raised Fire Pit" I got one 3 years ago from Amazon too, mine came with spare clips and 2 wire mesh, works great, no problems with it so far, the bag still works!! Over here we have what we call fire logs, they are used in open and closed fire places, they burn between 4 and 6 hrs, I use them for heat if there is no dead wood around, sometimes a combination of both, I get 4 hrs of heat out of one fire log and do my cooking on a trangia all under a tarp, never any issues, I also purchased a mat to go under the fire pit to protect the grass under it as it does burn the grass, as I do my best to leave no trace after me, so far I'm very happy with the raised fire pit which I paid €22 for. Great piece of kit👌

Looks like a great product for snowy conditions, no need to dig out a fire pit plus the heat source sits a little higher warming you faster, for firewood I just use the dead branches of the trees around me, this product looks like a win to me. 🇨🇦

I bought one on sale from Amazon for $8 last year. I felt I couldn't go wrong at that price! It's been great. The campground firepits in coastal Oregon can be quite damp so I bought this mesh fire pit to get more air flow and avoid super smoky fires. It works perfectly.

I have one of these. I have the large one. It's fabulous. I don't have any cons at all. No pit to dig out. No ash falling through. I find the setup really easy. The bag has stood up well. A great fire pit in my opinion. Great thorough review. 👍👍

A lot of Japanese campers use these mesh fire stands. They keep the ash contained for easy removal which is a requirement in Japan. They also load them up with firewood, lots of split log wood and no problems with durability. Windy conditions would cause extreme caution. So many variations of these exist, which to choose is the hard part.

I've been using one of these for the last year when there is no fire pit on the campsite pitch but you are allowed to have fire as long as you leave on trace. I put it on a insulated fire blanket to protect the ground and like you have been really in pressed with it although on my last camp there is a small hole in in the mesh after about 8 nights of use. But as a light weight way of having somewhere to have a fire and not totally burn the ground it works surprisingly well.

I have one just like this and have used it in the backyard a few times. I used it last weekend with charcoal and was able to place my UCO grilliput on top of it to grill some stakes. I also am able to put a fire mat wrapped around the supports in the flimsy bag and have a much less anxious time about having a mesh firepit.

I love mine. I use it winter camping in Western Australia….we have total fire band about 6 months of the year, but I don’t camp so much then, anyway. Australian hardwoods like Jarrah burn really well on them. A bit of sand in the bottom of the mesh improves burn times and protects the mesh.

I got the exact same ”fire pit”. And I love it (!) for three reasons: no1 I can enjoy a fire pretty much anywhere since it leaves NO TRACE! No2 like you showed, it is possible to move it under the tarp if it starts to rain. No3 you can sit with your legs under it, and really warm up your feet and legs. I used it maybe 30 times now and it still holds up. For me, I always strive to leave no trace, at the same time I just love to build a fire. Many thanks for keeping it real and honest Luke! 👏👍🏻 cheers from Sweden.

I purchased two stainless mesh firepits with a lil heftier build from Fireside Outdoor a couple of years ago. REI had one on display and I got two versions straight from the manufacturer. They're great for being portable enough to bring in somewhere if there's wet ground or an area they don't want the ground scorched.

@nealhagood67924 ай бұрын
Kevin, That type of hot fire is not conducive to most Dutch oven cooking. They typically work with hot coals for a steady even heat on the cast iron (and coals on the lid as well). There are some good method and recipes info sources out there for outdoor Dutch oven cooking! Not trying to dissuade you from trying, just wanted to provide a heads up! I was a Boy Scout leader for 12 yrs we did a LOT of Dutch oven meals. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and desserts ! GREAT, now I'm hungry! 😂

Utilize aluminum foil for a "squared circle" on the mesh prior to starting the fire. Make it a few inches smaller than the mesh and use it to "choke down on the amount of oxygen feeding the fire from below" and that will extend the burn time for you. ~ 12 Block Tokie ~ Detroit, Michigan

Certainly the "no walls" thing helps enhance the fire, but it's the air coming from the bottom (through the porous mesh) that is feeding most of the extra oxygen causing a strong updraft. Pit fires get no air from underneath but plenty from the sides.
