Fire Pit - 32-Inch Outdoor Fireplace with Spark Screen, Poker, and Cover - Wood-Burning Fire Pit for Yard, Patio, or Camping by Pure Garden (Bronze)

I wasn’t sure how this was going to work. I live in Las Vegas and it’s really lovely in the evenings even in the winter, just jacket and coat weather. I have a raised area in my backyard that looks over the strip and thought it would be perfect for roasting marshmallows while my grandchildren are here form Santa Monica California. So I set it up in the middle of the rise, put chairs all around,Got the wood and the kindling and it turned out absolutely perfectly. It was lots of fun to roast marshmallows around the campfire sit and talk and laugh and the kids were really thrilled. We will use this fire Pit often. Don’t sit on the side where the wind is blowing. No sparks or difficulty with the fire. The pit is nice and deep and felt very safe. The wood smells so good when it burns. We only used a couple of logs you don’t need many. We put the top on after we were finished, put a little bit of water just with a sprayer over the logs that were still burning and that was it. I highly recommend and it was easy to put together. My husband did it in about 10 minutes.

This is an inexpensive way to add a surround to my Solo Bonfire. I found the idea from others who have done this, and it's quite nice for this use. Assembly is a bit of a pain in the butt, as the location of the allen screws are such that you can only turn the screw about 1/4" before having to relocate the wrench.. So it's not difficult--just a pain, and takes much longer than it should for such a simple assembly. I used the coper-color fire "bowl" as a lid to sit on top of my Solo Bonfire which is an added bonus. Using this as a surround creates a much more attractive patio fireplace, in my opinion, and provides a small shelf to sit a drink or something. You need to be careful, obviously, that it doesn't get too hot there for whatever you place on it. Unfortunately I don't have a picture handy, but you can sort of imagine it, I hope!

So beautiful can’t wait to start using it easy to build

So I'm not using this as a fire pit but rather as a surround table for my Solo Bonfire fire pit. Been looking for something to put around the Solo so that I wouldn't worry about my puppies on the deck while we have the fire going. Saw that Solo came out with a surround table for their Bonfire and Yukon fire pits but they are $$$. Saw this and saw some people use it with their Bonfire and I was sold. My only concern was the quality and how hot it would get. Fire pit came in a couple of days and I immediately unboxed and put it together. Takes about 15-20 min and that's only bc you have to install the legs and the surround with about 14-16 small screws, using a small included allen wrench and only able to screw in half turns at a time....patience. In the end, I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Had a full fire going and it didn't get hot to the touch at all. Perfect for my needs. Not sure I would buy it as an actual fire pit. The copper bowl, that's the pit part, seems pretty thin and cheap. For my purposes this is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Oh and still able to put the Solo cover on. There's just the right amount of space for the cover to slide right down. Then I put on the included cover to cover everything. Literally feels like it was made for the Solo Bonfire!! Hope this review helps others with the Solo Bonfire and wondering if it works!

We bought this item, and although it looked good out of the box, the first time we used it, I immediately regretted it. If this is merely a decorator piece to have in your backyard, it’s fine - very pretty. If, however, you want an actual fire pit to make fires, s’more’s etc.. than I do not recommend. First off, it’s incredibly tiny you can fit barely any wood in there and what is in there is not recessed it’s actually raised up which means not only is it easy for you to end up touching the flame but the wind blows the ash everywhere and blows the flame out. Secondly, that beautiful copper dish inside the first time you burn wood in it it’s no longer beautiful. Period. So to summarize, if you never plan on having fires, but he wants a visually pleasing fire pit, then this is for you. If you like roaring bonfires at night, don’t get this.
