Ranger fire pit
on January 23, 2019
Posted by: Gary
This is very well made of stainless steel in the right compromise between strength and weight. It burns as advertised with very little smoke. I like it.

Opened her, well packaged, and beautiful stove design. I’m a retired engineer and this put together well. I look forward to years of use.

Love the Ranger Firepit!

The best firepit, I’ve ever owned! A joy to sit around...puts out great heat, and the flames are Mesmerizing, to watch...especially when you get that secondary burn going, of the gases... Buy one! You’ll love it, too...

Just received my new Ranger
on January 10, 2019
Posted by: Michael
I received my Ranger yesterday and was pretty excited to get a fire going last night. I had a good source of small and medium size wood to make disappear since Christmas is over and I have an extra, now very dead tree, in my house. Out came the loppers and a small tree saw making quick work of the lower part of our poor Christmas tree on the front deck. I layed about 3-4 layers of 2" -3" trunk wood on the base, then a wad of dryer lint (best starter ever) and then a handfull or two of dried branches with needles on top. What fun. The fire started effortlessly and after an hour or so of sitting around the fire eating dinner and staring at the flame, the tree was half gone and we went inside. I checked on the burning an hour or so later and found that there was only a very small dusting of ash on the grate which I dumped in the snow.
I love the way the entire unit packs in together and fits in the nicely made storage bag. Now to get more chunk wood and sticks ready and bring to the ski hill this weekend for a nice tailgate lunch time around the fire. Cant wait.

Ranger
on January 9, 2019

I bought my Bonfire a couple of years ago and love it. And so do all of my friends.
When you brought out the Ranger it was just the right size for my brother to use with their new RV and on their patio. I got it for Christmas.
We used it a few times before I came home, they are very happy with it.

The Ranger rocks!!
on January 6, 2019

Had the maiden voyage of our new Solo Stove Ranger tonight, and his thing totally rocks! I love it!
I’ve been interested since I saw the Kickstarter for the Campfire stove 4 years ago, but I didn’t really have a lot of use for a little camp stove, although I loved the concept.
Then, they introduced the Bonfire fire pit a couple of years later, but it was more than I wanted to spend on something I didn’t really need. I was also hoping that at some point they’d introduce something a little smaller and more portable than the Bonfire.
Then, the Kickstarter for the Ranger and Yukon hit a few months ago. The Yukon is a giant fire pit, but the Ranger looked perfect! Still a little pricey, but a good size that would work in the back yard, or pack up to take on camping trips. Around the same time, my friend made a post on Facebook about his Bonfire, and how much he loved it. I asked a few questions, and after that, I was sold. I backed the Ranger, and received it shortly before Christmas, but we just had too much going on through the holidays, and I never got around to even opening the box.
Well, I busted it out tonight, and it definitely lives up to my expectations. It looks great, weighs only 15lbs, and is ingeniously engineered. I gathered up a few handfuls of willow sticks/branches that always litter our back yard, a small wadded up paper bag, and a couple of small chunks of hickory that I had from my grill stash. In less than 5 minutes, I had a roaring fire going. I threw on a couple of small half logs that we have for the chimenea, and it was good to go. All I did for the next couple of hours was add some more sticks, twigs, and branches from around the yard. Awesome!
It burns clean, hot, and with a very small amount of smoke. What smoke there is, is channeled straight up by the heavy oxygen flow, so no smoke in the face. It’s crazy easy to start and keep going, with very little fuel. The stand stays cool and keeps it elevated above the ground, so everything stays nice and cool and safe below and around. On top of everything else, the secondary burn that the engineered airflow creates makes for a really spectacular fire. It has an extremely unique and hypnotic burn pattern. I can’t wait to take it camping! On top of everything else, they’re based out of Fort Worth, so I get to support a local business as well. Extremely happy with this purchase!!

Gen 2 seems even better than the 1st, which is hard to believe
on January 5, 2019
Posted by: james
I love these stoves. I had a small camping one that was great and then bought the 1st Gen. bonfire unit last year and had a blast with it and amazing and intriguing everyone that stood around it. Then they announced 2 new sizes last year on Kickstarter and I leapt at the chance to get second generation versions. Got my Ranger stove a few days ago and it seems to be better than the first version somehow. Started even easier with less smoke, it seemed. This size is super great. They all are- collect them all if you are a pyro like me. Super stoked for the big one to arrive, that will be the party fire, for many people to gather around. The ranger is great for 2-3 people. People think I am weird for having all three, but they do not complain once I start fires in them. People love to stand around these very closely, no smokey smelling clothes the next day (tho I kind of like that smell, to be honest, but my clothes don't like it.) You cannot go wrong with any of these products, they are top notch. Gen 2 seems a little heavier duty and the slight design improvements seem to be better. Way to go guys, thanks for making these bon fire units!
