I ordered a generic solo stove and it came without the inner fuel chamber. It wasn't even close to the design I wanted. They tried to copy solo stove, but only cosmetic. The photo description is misleading. I would have been better off constructing one out of paper board.

i dont recommend cooking certain types of foods over any fire pits like grease, heavy fats/oils, sugar, etc because its not easy to clean it off. great review!

They start super easy and burn really hot and fast, you’ll go through a lot of wood but they’re nice if you’re only using it for an hour or so

I have the Ranger 1.0. It's small and light and I find it very easy to clean . Just wait for it to cool and dump it. An occasional rinse with the hose and it's always ready. I actually think the one piece design is sturdier then the 2.0 with all the separate pieces.

The margins on this product must be absolutely insane

I just bought the BF2.0 tonight at Academy. Im pretty stoked to have an easily portable pit for parks that do not allow open burning. I can "cook" on it to be legal. Lol. Excellent review by the way!

I don’t understand the criticism about the heat from the solo stove. We had a unit function last November, one guy brought a big cowboy fire pit and another brought his solo stove. 10 feet away I could feel the heat from the solo stove. With the cowboy fire pit you had to stand right over it and get smoke in your face.

Nice improvement! Dumping the ash on my Bonfire is a tad awkward. The thing is a beast once it gets hot. I’ve tried wet wood and even a smallish stump. I find it radiates a good amount of heat here in the PNW. Can’t say I would get the cook system. I have the forks they make and they’re good for a lot besides marshmallows and hotdogs.

Thanks for being honest and fair. 100% agree about prices on accessories. We just got the Bonfire 2.0 bundle and for that price, they really should have offered the deflector or grill for half price. We might have gone for it. As it is, we won't go back to get them, so that was opportunity lost. BTW, are they always on sale? No way would we have bought it at list price.

So helpful! I love my Bonfire Solo Stove. My Weber Master Touch accessories matched the Bonfire perfectly so I MacGyver it when I can safely do so. I do wish the heat deflector was not so expensive. Ya hauling my firepit and emptying it is a pain - can’t wear cute clothes for that procedure. 😂❤ Great video 🔥

I live in the greater Phoenix area. This sounds perfect.

That griddle. Could that also be used as a heat deflector???

I have the Bon Fire and it works well. Although, if you enjoy actually seeing the fire you won’t be able to see the wood burn. You see only the flame out of the top. Not your campfire look.

Will it work with coal?

Used mine for the first time tonight … despite using dry logs it was ridiculously smokey … also find the whole Solo system seems to be a money con … the pit was reasonable, but once you start adding the accessories, (lid, tongs, grate, base, etc) the price creeps up significantly- jury is out. Will persevere, but sadly, first impressions were pretty underwhelming

I have Trex decking. I’m worried the bottom and lower sides would get hot enough to melt or discolor it. Any thoughts or experience with the base heating up?

For cooking, get a tripod. Then you can fully adjust the height of you cook surface

Great review I convinced to get 1 now...

No need to spend money on starter. In restaurants we use to put some cooking oil on newspaper/paper and build a pyramid on top of it

Sales are going on right now. So is the 2.0 worth $225 (from SoloStove) vs. the 1.0 for $180 (from Costco)? It looks like you still have to flip the 2.0 over to get everything outa there. Also something bigger can get stuck into that big hole opening on the 2.0

how hot does the outside get? Would it be a factor to consider if you have young children and wanted to roast marshmallows, could they get a burn easily if they touch the outside?

@MastaBenn90

ソロストーブ良いですね。日本は空前のキャンプブームで薪は高騰しています。 庭の剪定した枝を巻き代わりに、焚き火しています。ソロストーブは2つ持っています。 大きいのが欲しいです。

Will the grass get destroyed if I have a fire for like 4 hours in one spot? If I use the stand.

I can’t get mine to go smokeless to save my life. Any suggestions. Stacked the wood exactly like yours and it’s store bought already dried out.

Unfortunately trying to get in contact with them is a mission. At the time of this writing, I have been on hold for almost 2 hours and have text them as well. They must be quick to respond to you and send you products because you do reviews for them.

I bought and use it. Expensive and somehow pretentious. I must have the old One because the bottom doesn’t remove. I can just tell after having it only a few months this sucker is going to rust out. Smokeless, no. If you get just the right size fire it’s cool but too small or too big and there’s smoke for sure. It would have been nice to have a drain hole build into the bottom with some sort of metal plug. It rained over night once while cooling down and I could hear the water trapped in the walls. Also, it’s like an after burning GE101…. The heat goes straight up… total Fine as far as sitting around but it makes it a really dangerous game safely adding wood…. Throw it in and cross your fingers because you aren’t getting over it with a fire poker moving logs around. I hate saying it but a half burn barrel with strategic holes is 10% of the price…. Not as pretty at all but after a few burns it doesn’t matter.

I don’t recommend using a Duralog in the Solo Stove. We’ve done it twice and each time it produced thick BLACK SMOKE. The Duralog works fine in a standard, open air fire pit but for some reason there’s something about the intense heat of the solo stove that results in thick, sooty smoke. Try it, you’ll see what I mean.

This is a great review, I live in the UK and had to buy the heat deflector to get enough heat out of the solo stove bonfire. The heat deflector almost costs the same as the bonfire solo stove itself. I haven't used the heat deflector yet. The other thing is that it eats through wood !!!
