Score: 79/100
Solo Stove Mesa XL 7-Inch
Score: 78/100Rankings
The Sunnydaze Crossweave 36-Inch round fire pit provides a spacious fire bowl and lightweight steel design with comprehensive accessories. It does not include an ash drawer and requires a fire-proof pad on decks. Perfect for patio gatherings where a large, portable fire area is desired.
The Solo Stove Mesa XL is a tiny tabletop fire pit that delivers a smokeless burn thanks to its 360° airflow and offers dual-fuel flexibility in a ultra-light package. Its 7-inch bowl and sub-hour burn time limit heat for bigger parties, and it lacks a gas option. Ideal for balconies, patios or small gardens where portability and low smoke are paramount.
