Consumer Reports: ‘Smokeless’ fire pits aren’t exactly smokeless, but some are better than others

Popular backyard fire pits -- often called smokeless fire pits -- like the Solo Stove conjure up images of a roaring outdoor fire sans smoke. Consumer Reports just tested seven of them. Here’s a quick takeaway.

If you are a planning a backyard cookout today and are annoyed with plumes of smoke getting into your eyes from a fire pit, it may be time for a smokeless option. They are getting a lot of attention on social media right now, but we decided to look into just how"smokeless" they actually are.

That’s the nature of burning wood but the way these fire pits are designed, there’s less smoke once the fire really gets going, especially when compared with a traditional campfire. “The ones that did well in our ratings, you can have a small fire in them or a large fire in them, they start quickly, so that they are out of the smoky phase sooner and they burn the wood completely so that there’s not a lot of clean up afterwards,” Deitrick said.
