Ciays 28-inch Propane Fire Pit
Score: 82/100
Solo Stove Ranger 2.0 15-Inch
Score: 80/100Rankings
The Ciays 28-inch round propane fire pit offers 50,000 BTU, a removable lid, lava rocks, and external flame control, combining strong heat with a portable alloy-steel build. It lacks a cover and detailed ignition information, and its weight is moderate. Great for decks or patios where a portable, high-heat fire table with visual appeal is needed.
The Solo Stove Ranger 2.0 is a compact, portable fire pit featuring a patented 360° airflow system that delivers near-smokeless burns and a lightweight stainless-steel build. Its small fire bowl limits heat output and the premium price may deter budget shoppers. Best suited for campers and tailgate enthusiasts who prioritize portability and low smoke.
