- Does it really burn smokeless?
- It greatly reduces smoke once the fire is hot and the secondary burn kicks in. Cold starts and damp wood still smoke.
- What fuel does it use?
- Split firewood only. There is no gas, pellet or electric option, so you load and light it by hand.
- How big a fire can it hold?
- The 19.5-inch bowl takes short logs. Expect a modest fire for a few people rather than a large bonfire.
- Is it safe on a wood deck?
- Only with a heat-resistant pad underneath and clearance from railings. Check the manual's clearance figures before using it on any deck.
- How does it compare with a pellet smokeless pit?
- A pellet pit lights faster and smokes less from the start, but it needs pellets. This one burns free or cheap firewood and gives a more traditional flame.
- Does the stainless steel rust?
- The body resists rust well, but heat and soot will discolor the finish over time. A cover helps between uses.
