- Does it really burn smokeless?
- No wood fire is fully smokeless. The double-wall design pulls air back into the flames, which cuts smoke once the fire is hot, but startup and damp wood still smoke.
- Can I leave it outside all year?
- Carbon steel will rust outdoors. Use a cover and empty the ash after each burn, or store it dry if you want it to last.
- What wood should I burn?
- Seasoned hardwood burns hottest and cleanest. Avoid soft, wet or treated wood, which smokes heavily and can damage the finish.
- How big is it and how many people does it suit?
- It is about 26 inches across, which gives a fire for roughly four to six people seated around it.
- Does it come with a cover or spark screen?
- Most versions ship as the bare fire bowl only. Plan on buying a cover and a spark screen separately.
- Is it portable?
- It is heavy and wide, so treat it as a fixed patio piece. Move it only when cold and empty, and with help.
