I know all of us like that sitting around the campfire thing.
BUT my wife has asthma and she can’t sit around a roaring wood fire too much. A lot depends on the wood. So to beat the hauling of wood and the trying to get a fire started and all the other stuff that goes along with it. We have looked for around year at the red campfire things and few others. The other week someone sent me a link to the Campfire in Can portable campfire.
Pricey was my first thought, same ole, same ole thing. BUT I got to reading the reviews and the majority were positive. So I bit the bullet and ordered one before our last trip to New Bern, NC. It arrived the Monday before we were leaving. I opened it up and liked what I saw. But still was thinking if this thing is a bust I will ship it right back for a refund of my money. I told the wife it had come and see wanted to see it, "it’s nice" is about all she had to said.
So off to the campground we go... NO wood to haul just an extra propane tank... My daughter, son-in-law and grandson came down Thursday so we planned to have it going just before dark. The campsite had nice new campfire rings and we set it up like the directions said in one of them. After a few minutes we had nice warm fire and it’s adjustable for height and warmness. Friday night my sister-in-law and her husband came down and we set this up again. We had a nice night around a fire with NO smoke, NO waiting for it to die down. Just turn it off and few minutes of cool down time and put the lid back on it. store in the back of my truck, ready to go again Saturday night. A little wine and few suds and we had another nice night around the fire. My wife really enjoyed being able to sit around the fire without the repercussions of her asthma kicking up. I liked not having the wood to deal with or coals... Just thought I would share my experience with this product. We hear all the bad things that happen to people with various products; I just figured I can share a positive experience with a product.
