Reviews

1. E El Dorado Dave 5/5

   Reliable performance after repeated use

   I bought this for my son and he uses it regularly in the evenings. It lights without fuss, burns evenly, and the lava rocks radiate pleasant heat. We’ve owned the same model for RV trips and can attest it keeps working season after season. The carry kit makes moving and storing it easy without spilling the rocks.

2. B BillJuv 5/5

   Works well under Stage 2 bans (confirm locally)

   I bought this because of regional fire bans and it performed better than I expected. After several nights of use, the flame is attractive and I usually keep it low once rocks are warm. It meets the Stage 2 criteria in areas I visited, but check local rules before relying on it.

3. N Nancy 5/5

   Lovely small outdoor burner — very efficient

   Works great with a steady, attractive flame and no smoke. It’s easy to carry, not heavy, and uses very little propane. I’m very pleased with the purchase and recommend it.

4. K Kory 5/5

   Simple setup and effective heat

   Out of the box it was quick to set up and the flame gives off a surprising amount of heat. No smoky smell like wood, and it’s light enough to stow in our RV.

5. T The Heavy Metal Cheesehead 5/5

   Well designed and rugged in cold climates

   I live where nights get very cold and this unit delivers. The cover and straps make shutdown and transport quick — the rocks stay put and the hose coils neatly. Flames reach a good height on high, there’s no smoke or mess, and it’s lightweight enough to move easily. No problems so far.

6. J Juan De La Mora 5/5

   Good investment to avoid being cold

   Heats up well and is perfect for small spaces. The three small bags of lava rock fit closely — I felt they left little spare, but replacements are easy to source. I did replace the regulator fitting to match local tank fittings for about $65 pesos; otherwise it’s practical to carry and use on my terrace with a 4 kg tank.

7. P Pancho Y 5/5

   Great family buy for cozy nights

   Excellent product that gets the family excited for s'mores and outdoor evenings. It creates a warm, comfortable atmosphere and we’re very happy with it.

8. S Silverfox58 5/5

   Ideal for coastal camping

   Camping on the northwest coast, this made evenings perfect — tent up, fire on, great view. Many sites won’t allow wood fires but accept propane bowls like this. It’s clean with minimal mess and produces plenty of heat even at moderate settings; the provided lava rock could cover the burner more fully.

9. Y YuenX 4/5

   A practical camping companion with burn-time notes

   With frequent burn restrictions in parts of the West, I looked into propane options that don’t send embers into the grass. This firebowl avoids embers, doesn’t scar the ground, and proved a safer alternative on trips where wood fires were limited. It’s easy to refill using standard propane and is now part of our go-to camping gear.

10. M Michelle 5/5

    Exactly the flexible setup I wanted

    Simple to assemble and use, and far more versatile than bulkier, fixed designs. I placed it inside our larger wood pit with logs around it to mimic a campfire and can remove it when we want a wood fire. Low-profile design is great for warming bare feet while sitting nearby.

11. K Kate 5/5

    User-friendly and close to a traditional pit

    We wanted a no-smoke, portable option and this fit the bill. It connects to a standard propane cylinder and lights with a handheld lighter; flame height adjusts easily and even the low setting gives off a lot of heat. Fits 4–6 people comfortably and stores away without fuss. I do miss the crackle of real wood, though.

12. C Chad 5/5

    Very satisfied with portability and warmth

    Exactly what I wanted for my back deck — compact and easy to move. I used it one cool evening and it provided plenty of heat; the cover and carrying strap are handy. The flame is adjustable and it sips propane on low; I ran it a little over two hours around 50°F and it performed well.

13. M ms coffee 5/5

    Plenty of heat and very packable

    After researching many options and asking fellow RVers, this model kept coming up. I skipped the smaller, cuter versions because I wanted usable fire area and saved to buy the carry bag from the maker — worth it for packing. Used it over the holidays while camping and it kept us comfortably warm.
