Great for my small backyard!
on April 7, 2020
Posted by: Daniel
The Ranger has been great for our small backyard. I've been able to get the kids out splitting wood and roasting marshmallows. The fire starts right up, has less smoke, and burns more efficiently than a typical fire pit. Once we're done, I'm able to put it in the shed to get it off the grass.

Great customer service

I ordered a Ranger fire pit and it arrived damaged. :( I contacted customer service and they immediately gave me a prepaid return label to print from my computer. As soon as they verified the damaged product was at the UPS store they shipped a replacement. The replacement arrived quickly. I did not need to wait for them to receive the damaged product and inspect it. The photos I sent them of the dent was enough proof for them. I have used both the Bonfire and the Ranger. They both work as advertised. The perforated plate at the bottom of the burn chamber is thick and rounded like an upside down bowl. The curved surface helps ashes slide down and out of the way of incoming fresh oxygen, to fuel the flames. And it is thicker than what my old fire-pit was made of. It should hold up for a long time. The ranger used smaller wood, but I usually have plenty of odds and ends around as I cut my own wood. If you plan on using this on the road another satisfied user suggested to bring along an old fashioned cross cut hand saw to cut any larger logs in 1/2. It only takes about 20 seconds per log to cut them smaller. I like that the ranger uses less wood than the larger models so you are not going threw all your supply in one night. The best part is what it does not include. Smoke! And any smoke you do have tends to go straight up because of the drafting affect combined with the top ring pushing that flow inwards from all sides. It's like a jet engine without the noise. Only downfall is that the radiant heat is focused back inward instead of out to the feet of people around the fire. But that also helps keep the fire hot and burning, eliminating the need to keep pushing the ends of burnt logs back into the main fire. Overall, very satisfied.

Perfect for our needs
on April 5, 2020
Posted by: Mike
The Solo Stove is perfect for our needs - particularly as we are engaged in social distancing here in Los Angeles. The design is sleek, it's easy to move and fires up so quickly. The size of the ranger was perfect for us - not too big, not too small and we can take it to the beach, camping, etc. We opted for this vs. building a fire pit as we don't own our current home and it has been perfect.
Get some wood, a Solo Stove and camp out in your backyard Angelenos!
PS I love what the company is doing by giving front line works and those impacted most by this crisis free stoves. Keep up the good work.
PPS - get some bourbon too :)

Ranger Rick
on April 4, 2020

The Ranger fire pit was the best purchase I’ve ever made. The air flow of the fire pit makes for the most efficient fire of your life. The nearly smokeless effect the airflow creates is also a nice touch. Most fires leave you smelling like a firefighter so it’s nice to be around something that leaves you with only a slight hint of a fire smell. The set up of the Ranger is also very easy and straight forward and anyone can figure them out. I like the size and pack ability of it. It’s nice to take on camping trips and puts out an enormous amount of heat for it’s size.
