It may not push out quite the same levels of heat that our regular and much bigger, single skin, fire pit does, but I’ve read that’s the payoff when considering any low smoke firepit. The double-cavity required to achieve those mesmerising rolling flames, and the smoke reduction, inadvertently acts as heat insulation. The carry bag is substantial and doubles as a cover once the Bonfire 2.0 has fully cooled. I didn’t find it very easy to get the Bonfire 2.0 into the bag without assistance, but once in, it’s definitely easier to carry. Because of its weight, I wouldn’t want to schlep it very far though! Moreover, the stand fits effortlessly into the grooves on the bottom of the stove, providing a stable footing. Store the Stand in the Solo Stove.

I can’t decide if I love the design, or find it a bit ‘blah’, but it’s certainly not offensive in any way and there’s no doubt the build quality is good. Lighting the Bonfire 2.0 is the same as lighting a woodburner indoors, or any other fire for that matter. Apart from a decade renting in various cities, I’ve always lived in the country, in homes featuring some form of wood fire. This meant I didn’t need Solo Stove’s fire lighting instructions but they’re fairly standard, and I was glad to read I’ve been doing it right all these years. The main point to note is that you should not overfill the Bonfire 2.0. If the wood/kindling sits higher than the upper vent holes (inside the rim) you will stuff any hopes of smoke-free burning and it’ll also compromise the airflow burning system, too. The only thing left in the outdoor garden heater is ultra-fine ash and very little at that! The deceivingly simple design makes the Solo Stove Range fire pit easy to clean. Lose yourself as you stare into a hypnotising fire ring and enjoy a near smokeless camping fire pit. The Ranger Fire Pit Kit with StandYes, a Solo Stove can get wet or rained on, but it’s recommended to cover the stove with a protective cover when not in use to prevent rusting and damage. First for the science bit. Solo Stove’s smokeless situation works via secondary burn, made possible thanks to its double-skin steel construction with vent holes at the top and bottom. Cool air is pulled through the bottom, heats up within the double cavity, and rises to the top, which invokes secondary combustion as the hot air exits the top vents.

Yes, during these tough times, you will still be able to find the right fire pit to fit your surroundings and enhance your relaxation time, but also fit your budget!

A MORE COMPLETE BURN: A more complete burn means the top vents burn up the tiny particles that would have formed smoke. There won’t be any more half-burned wood to deal with, as well. Yes, a Solo Stove can be used on grass, concrete, or outdoor rugs, but it’s important to place a protective pad or heat shield underneath the stove to prevent any damage to the surface. The patented double wall with top vents creates the world's most unique double burn and nearly smokeless fire. As a result, the secondary combustion produces a fire ring with mesmerising flames burning away most smoke. In addition, the Solo Stove Bonfire kit also includes a high-quality steel stand so that you can use it on most surfaces. Rounded edges prevent scratching of surfaces. Multiple air vents prevent heat damage through constant cooling airflow.My main – and completely unscientific – test for the presence of smoke basically came down to whether or not I had to wash my hair before bed! I can’t stand the smell of smoke-filled hair, and on those windier days, I did have to take a shower. t’s not recommended to burn cardboard or paper in a Solo Stove as it can release harmful chemicals. Duraflame logs and charcoal are not recommended as they can produce excessive heat and damage the stove. Only burn dry, seasoned wood in a Solo Stove.

When we tested the Solo Stove Bonfire 2.0 on a more inclement day – when there were mild Spring-time winds but nothing that would dry your sheets in record time – the firepit was more or less smokeless. But, on the days when we tested it when the wind appeared to be coming from three directions – as it often does here on the edge of Dartmoor – its smokeless powers failed somewhat.

Utilise your bonfire to its fullest potential by putting it to greater use! You can use your fire pit on more heat-sensitive surfaces if there is enough ventilation. While in use, a sturdy stainless steel shield helps keep sparks and embers from flying out of your portable fire pit. But is the Solo Stove Bonfire 2.0 really smokeless? This has to be the million-dollar question and the answer, from me, is yes. And no. Yes, a Solo Stove can be used under a covered patio or porch, but it’s important to ensure proper ventilation to prevent the buildup of smoke and carbon monoxide.
