Smokeless Fire Pit Bonfire 19.5 in - Portable, Easy Clean

In this review the Solo Stove Bonfire 19.5 in stands out as a portable, low-smoke solution for small groups who want a true campfire feel without the usual irritants. The single biggest reason to consider it is the smokeless fire performance driven by efficient airflow, which means fewer tears and less lingering odor while still delivering solid heat. At about 20 lb and with a removable ash pan, it blends portability, simple cleanup, and durable construction into a package suited to backyard evenings, beach trips, and short camping outings.

Key Features

• Smokeless design: The air-flow efficient construction produces much less smoke so conversations and eyes stay comfortable around the fire.
• Portable weight: Weighing about 20 lb and fitting in a carrying case, it is easy to transport to campsites, beaches, or a neighbor's backyard.
• Easy to clean: A removable ash pan and base simplify post-fire cleanup so users spend less time tending ashes and more time relaxing.
• Durable materials: Made from premium 304 stainless steel with a high-heat ceramic coating, it is built to resist corrosion and repeated heating cycles.
• Good heat output: The fire pit produces steady heat suitable for groups of about 4-6 people without constant repositioning.
• Versatile use: Its compact size and dependable design make it appropriate for backyard gatherings, beach trips, or car camping.

Who It's For

The Bonfire 19.5 in is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts who want a real wood fire without the nuisance of smoke and odor, particularly small groups of 4-6 people who value portability and easy cleanup. It appeals to those who often move between backyard, beach, and campsite and who appreciate durable stainless construction.

People who need a large, permanent fire fixture or who prefer gas-burning fire pits should look elsewhere; this model is optimized for mobility, wood fuel, and convenience rather than maximum cooking surface or built-in yard installation.
