I didn't know what to expect from this given its price, but it's actually well built with non-magnetic stainless steel...with 'style'. Will it dent or bend if you drop it? YES....but you should expect that. The conical shape of it does make it hard to grab. I may make some stainless wire loops through the top interior vents to create grab points to lift when cool.
The unit is surprisingly compact in its bag and is an almost perfect size when assembled for use. 4 to maybe 6 people could get up close and intimate with this fire pit.
If you are looking for a lid, the fire pits top OD is 19 inches. I found the Hisencn Fire Pit Lid for Solo Stove Bonfire 1.0 & 2.0-19.5" Stainless Steel Cover, which has an ID of 19.5 inches , leaving you with only .25 inches of slop from side to side. It is also non-magnetic stainless steel and is well-constructed. Just flip the EAST OAK Fuoco smokeless fire pit TOP RING over, and you are good to go.
Rather than buying and storing a log splitter, I plan on burning cheap wood pellets. If they don't work out, I'll update this review.
When dumping ash...it might be a good idea to run a piece of blue painters' tape over the outside bottom vents to prevent ash leaks while dumping. I mean...nobody likes it when their ash leaks....Right?
So far, I'm pleased with what I see...just not crazy about the travel bag.
Update: Wood pellets burn quite well in this. Maybe too well. Initially I put in around 5 pounds of pellets. Once they got started, everyone needed to back away from the fire pit. It was pretty intense.
Here's the bad news, the pellets burn extremely HOT and FAST. Be prepared to keep feeding the beast. Don't wait until the flames die out...otherwise there's gonna be a LOT of smoke (and I do mean a LOT... as it smolders) Once the flames start back up, the smoke will dissipate. There might be a trick or learners' curve to using pellets.
Overall, I have no complaints, and the painters tape trick worked.
