Amagabeli Outdoor Fire Pit 23Inch Portable Fire Bowl Black

 

Best fire pit money can buy I have tried them all just buy it trust me

 

Item is as good as described, sturdy enough for parents to use.
Just slight damage to side appearance.

 

Really like this on first impressions. I can see why some comments are not happy about the tidiness of soldering etc. For me, that adds to the character. Everything is metal which means I need to think about how to protect it from rain over night once it been alight (see comment below and rust!) – hopefully that was just a one-off issue they sadly encountered. Size is bigger than I expected. Whilst it’s very easy to assemble, I did have to get an electric screwdriver out to get one of the screws in as, by hand, the thread just got stuck. Overall, looking forward to gathering around this with some marshmallows and a glass of wine.

P.S. I really like the idea someone has had of building a wooden cover to turn it into a mini table. Something the company could consider designing as an add-on?

 

Excellent and light weight. However it will catch water in it because there is no cover. Hence if you leave it outside in rain water will gather is base and obviously over time that will lead to rust and decay. I’ve drained mine of water and bung in an out building. Otherwise excellent as an OAP its weight being light is an added benefit to me.

 

Looks good , it got a large basket for the logs , and it’s very strong but haven’t had the chance to use it just yet.

 

Super little thing. Works a treat. Had it going all night for Guy Fawkes. Has pretty good heat radius. About 4 feet all around. Air gets in under the grate. Looks prone to rust but I keep it under a canopy.

 

I’m really chuffed with this fire pit. We’ve used it several times and it performs so well. I’ve had dish fire pits in the past so was interested to see what the bucket design was like. For me it projects more heat because when you are sat around it it’s more at chest level. We used kiln dried logs and we’ve also used those pre formed tube logs and both have been great. We didn’t get too much smoke or falling ashes but I do have it on a protective mat. It was very easy to put together and feels great quality. The dimensions are accurate to those listed on Amazon so this is a decent sized bucket. It is a bit fiddly to clean out after but most are. It has a sort of grid at the bottom to give it more strength and the ashes do get a bit wedged around it. In fairness I just wait until it’s completely cold ( next day after use) and tip the whole thing into my compost bin. I then use a garden cane to loosen any bits that are stuck and job done. It’s a sort of dark copper colour when it’s new. It has rusted a little bit inside but that doesn’t detract from the look of it especially when it’s lit. It’s also a perfect size and shape for toasting marshmallows although I would recommend toasting forks as it’s very hot when you get near. Certainly you would want to keep kids at a safe distance . I didn’t have any problems lighting it. I set up some kindle and newspaper at the bottom and light that with a butane gun ( like you use to melt the sugar on creme brle). Once it’s going I add one log and when that’s going I add a few more. Within fifteen minutes you have a perfect fire that lasts an hour or so depending on the number of logs you have added. You do also get a raking fork to help you move things around once it’s lit. This isn’t the cheapest fire pit however nor is it the most expensive. I think when it’s lit it looks more expensive than it was and I feel the price is probably about right. When it’s not being used it’s stored undercover and in the winter it will be stored inside my shed for added protection. It will be interesting to see how well it stores and I will update this review should it not store well. I’m hoping to get many years of use from this and based on my current experience I’m really pleased I bought it.

 

Superb fire pit!! Really easy to get logs of choice lit, and it’s quickly become a real centre-piece in our garden. The heat from it is amazing, with the mesh all around to prevent any sparks from escaping. It’s very easy to tip into the bin the next day too, and is still looking spotless after a good couple of nights. The legs do a good job of preventing heat reaching down to the slabs below, but I think if I was using it on grass, I’d definitely be placing a heat guard on the ground beneath it. Highly recommended!

 

Very good firepit 1st time used tonight seems sturdy and nice looking.

 

The fire pit was excellent although it could have come with a grate ring in the bottom to aid combustion. It was easy to assemble looks sturdy in construction and generally looks good. Some cheaper models,might look the same but looks can be deceiving.

 

Very pleased with this. Takes a good amount of wood and is great for sitting round.

 

This is so easy, no assembly required just sit pan onto legs. But I would like to say the pan is not 4mm thick as stated, it is much thinner than expected and I am worried about the long term effect of burning and cooling wearing through, I believe the thickness is more like 1.5/2.0mm when I measured. But with this said the actual fire and heat given off is great and has helped my covid get togethers in the garden as we come out of lockdown.

 

Barely any assembly required, just screw on the legs. I put three old bricks in the bottom to raise the fire bed and reduce heat to the base as a precautionary measure, which also makes it a little easier to light. As with almost any fire pit it can be a bit smoky. I found it very easy to use; 2 or 3 fire lighters with some kindling on top lit with a long lighter and it starts very quickly. It’s definitely big enough for my needs. An identical model is available with a grill rack and a different name for slightly less but the supply time was longer and I wanted mine quickly. I cooked some salmon in a wire grill on it which tasted fabulous but this isn’t really barbecue, however there’s nothing to stop you using it as one. My daughter liked toasting her marshmallows on it. I made a top for mine to enable it to be used as a drinks table when it’s not actively being used as a fire pit and it also keeps the rain off which makes it easier to light. The poker it came with isn’t up to much but I use fireplace tongs if I want to rearrange the wood when it’s burning. All over I’m very happy with it, it looks good and works well. A chimenea is less smoky but wouldn’t work for me as they’re really for corners instead of the middle of a patio. This seems to be made from painted aluminium so it won’t rust and given that it’s not a flued fire should not get hot enough to have any structural issues as a result of the heat.

 

Very easy to assemble and looks pretty sturdy. Haven’t used it yet though. I’m happy with purchase.

 

We did a quick test on it before moving it to our patio to see if the paving slab would get scorched. It’s height is spot on and doesn’t do any damage to the slab underneath.

Easy to assemble with 6 allen key screws, 2 per leg. Strong, but still lightweight enough to move around.

We like the taller brazier design much more than the shallow Kadai bowl design. It holds everything in and the mesh surround stops any embers shooting out at you. This design compared with the kadai also gets much more air to the base of the fire, keeping it blazing.

Very pleased with this purchase and it will get good use on those summer evenings.
