How is this different from a regular fire pit?

It uses 360-degree airflow and secondary combustion to burn off more smoke than a plain bowl. You still burn wood, but with less smoke and ash if the logs are dry and stacked correctly.

How many people does it fit?

Solo Stove sizes it for 4 to 6 people. The 19.5-inch firebox is compact, so larger groups may want the bigger Summit sizes.

Does it need assembly or a stand?

No assembly is required, and the integrated stand lets it sit on a stable, nonflammable surface. Keep it off wood decks and dry grass.

What wood should I use?

Use 3 to 4 dry, seasoned logs stacked below the secondary holes. Damp wood smokes more and undercuts the smokeless design.

Is it rust resistant?

Yes, the premium stainless steel is corrosion resistant for repeated outdoor use. It can still discolor from heat, which is normal.

What comes in the box?

The fire pit itself. A spark screen, lid and cover are sold separately.

About the Solo Stove Smokeless Fire Pit 19.5 Inch

The Solo Stove Smokeless Fire Pit is a 19.5-inch cylindrical wood-burning fire pit from the Summit collection. It is made of premium stainless steel that resists rust and corrosion, so it can be used outdoors repeatedly. It is sized for gatherings of 4 to 6 people, and its lower side walls give it a lower-profile body.

A 360-degree airflow design feeds the fire, and secondary combustion helps cut smoke compared with traditional fire pits. It burns firewood logs: use 3 to 4 dry logs, stacked below the secondary holes. An integrated stand supports the fire pit on a stable, nonflammable surface.

A tool-free ash pan lifts out for cleanup. Let the fire pit cool completely, lift out the ash pan, discard the ashes, then reinstall the parts.
