Great Gift
on October 24, 2020
Posted by: Joseph
Purchase this for a friend who just got a new cabin and it was the perfect gift. Easy to use and basically no clean up at all as opposed to his current fire pit. Might end up getting one myself as well.

Ranger review
on October 24, 2020
Posted by: Eileen
It’s a. Ice stove. No smoke. Wish I got the next size up. The ranger has to have very small pieces of firewood to fit into the stove.

Great fire pit, wish we had gone bigger

This thing is pretty awesome. I love the aesthetics and not having smoke in my face. You have to use smaller wood to have a hot fire, for this reason we wish we had gone up in size. Very enjoyable!

Beautiful Flame
on October 26, 2020
Posted by: Eric
The Ranger Solo Stove was purchased to use with camping. This fire is easy to start with a couple handfuls of kindling twigs. Adding chucks of wood (we had prunings of a cherry tree) quickly built the fire to a beautiful flame with hardly any smoke. We look forward to many campfires in a safe way.

The Solostove Ranger brings instant class to any campsite! We’ve had it on the beach, at the park, and of course our RV.
Precision design with amazing extras! Very portable and easy to clean.
Get one, you’ll be glad you did from day one!

Great for small backyard in a city
on October 27, 2020
Posted by: Adam
We live in a city and have an 11'x15' concrete patio/backyard with concrete block walls. We wanted to find a firepit that was safe, small enough for our backyard, and had minimal smoke. We initially were going to purchase a chiminea to direct the smoke up and out the top, but they were pretty expensive and break/rust easily. The ranger met all of these needs and more. It's small, but heats up the whole space. I think the bigger model would have been too big to have people sitting and move around it when you need to. Our friends and family like it so much that they decided to buy one for themselves! The fire starts in a few minutes and burns very well; just grey ashes left.
Two design updates could make it even better. First, an access hatch in the bottom would be best to empty the ash, since not all of it comes out when you turn the thing upside down to empty it.
Second, a lid over the top and/or an operable vent over the holes to completely extinguish the fire if you need to. Unlike traditional fire pits, you cannot douse it with water because it's stainless steel. Sand is the next best fire extinguisher that would work, but having a lid and side vents to block all airflow to cool it down even faster would be great. Sometimes we have to wait a few hours for the embers to completely cool before disposing.
