Super simple to set up AND use. Great valve allows for low flame or full flame. Becomes the center attraction at the camp site. Breaks the chill on a cool night and no smoke from a wood fire. When we are done we just put on the cap and right back in the box it came from. Very easy to store and travel with.

CobraCo FB6200 Cast Iron Fireplace with Cover Review

I do like the design and size. It's a bit smaller then my last one but that's okay. Anything made in China is typically crap, but for a firepit, no big deal. The holes for the tubular frame that the base sits into did not line up, forcing me to modify it so they line up properly to use the screws provided. The powder coating paint they use on the screen is bare minimal. After one rainfall and forgetting to put the cover back on, it started showing rust already. So I HIGHLY suggest using the cover! Speaking of which, the cover is really an over glorified double lined plastic garbage bag, so always be careful sliding it over the pit, it rips easily! The base itself is heavy to be sure, so it won't rust for years, being cast iron and all. The other thing I'm not crazy about is cleaning out the ashes. There is triangular rods that cover the intake air holes at the base of the cast iron that are welded on..........well.........some of them are welded.....lol. They get in the way of using anything flat, like a dustpan, to scoop up the ashes and such. So if you're not anal like I am, you'll always have some ashes left in it. It is heavy to be sure. Very awkward for one person to move, if you need to. We move ours out of the way when not in use, so I built a dolly with wheels for it, making it much easier. All in all, it's.........okay.

We love the look of our new Copper Fireplace, and we have already spent several chilly evenings outside enjoying the warmth and crackling noise of the fire. It was on back order when we ordered it but we received it much sooner than promised; we did have a problem with the door not wanting to open all the way to put firewood in; I called the company, talked to a very nice, pleasant, real live person, who immediately offered to send out a replacement piece, which arrived within a week. I am very pleased with the product and the company.

Nicely made, well thought out, and works perfectly! Last night my son and I built a nice toasty campfire using this IN THE RAIN and had a great time. When you're done using it (cooled off and cleaned), it packs up neatly into a compact storage bag. There's plenty of extra room inside the bag to store some newspaper and a few fire building essentials like matches, a hatchet, and gloves.
HINT: The trick to building a successful campfire in a bowl shaped fireplace like this (or even in a regular fire pit located on the ground) is to provide plenty of airflow to the fire. To accomplish this, start by placing a couple of small (3" to 4" diameter) logs a few inches apart and parallel to each other in the bottom. Build your fire on top of these logs so air the can circulate underneath. Crumple up some newspaper between the logs, then stack thin dry kindling in the shape of a tee pee over the newspaper. Light the newspaper and once the kindling catches well, start stacking 1" to 2" diameter pieces of dry firewood on top of the kindling and continue to add larger pieces as the fire will permit. In no time you'll have a roaring fire and a nice bed of glowing coals will develop on the bottom of the bowl.
Follow up post April 2010:
We just got back from a vacation with our travel trailer at an out-of-the-way desert RV park in southeastern California and we used our little portable Coleman fire pit about half a dozen times while staying there. It was a huge hit with family, friends, and even some strangers we invited over to join us one night around the campfire. I had several people inquire where I got it and how much it costs. We had roaring flames at the start of each evening, and when we let the fire die down to a nice bed of glowing coals, we roasted marshmallows and made s'mores.
Due to all the heat and flames, the black paint on the screen cover has all but turned a dull grey, but we could care less... functionally it does the job and you can't see the color in the dark anyway! No paint could withstand the heat and flames we've subjected that screen to. The stainless steel pan seems to be holding up well, and we've had it hot enough at times that it's glowed red in the darkness. The folding stand still looks good as new... no discoloration of the paint.
In summary, this portable fire pit is a true winner... lightweight, compact, and convenient.

Weber 2726 Wood Burning Fireplace Review

I had shopped around for a patio fireplace for a couple of years. I didn't like any of the ones sold in the chain stores (Lowes, Home Depot, Target, Sears, etc.). They were poorly built and looked like they would rust out quickly. The more quality built ones were too expensive for what essentially is just a fire ring. I stumbled across the Weber Wood Burning Fireplace and after a little research purchased it. Like all things Weber, it isn't the most flashy or even the best but it is well designed, sturdy, and should last for years. We have used ours once and I will share a number of observations and comments on previous reviews.
First, the small aluminum bowl underneath the fire bowl is not an ash catcher. It is a heat shield. This fireplace should not be used on a wood or composite deck. We have a brick patio and it is safely used there.
Second, where we live (Central, OH) there is no need for a screen around the fireplace. Perhaps in more fire prone areas it would be a good idea, but then again, should you have an open fire in those areas? For my uses a screen is not useful or needed and would just make adding fuel more difficult.
Third, to the commenter who said the fireplace is too smokey, it's the green wood you burned that produced the smoke, not the fireplace. I used well seasoned wood as anyone should and it produced about as much smoke as one would expect.
Fourth, you do not need to use the lid but there is one major advantage to doing so when the weather is cool: the lid helps direct heat down rather than allowing it all to rise quickly. In other words, it keeps more heat down at chair level when you're sitting around the fireplace.
Fifth, the lid does indeed smother the fire quickly. The lid is just tight enough to smother the fire. That's a huge plus since it means you don't have to wait until the fire dies out on its own to go inside. Nor do you have to douse the fire with water to put it out. In the case of this product, I'd recommend you don't do that anyway unless you want to ruin the porcelain finish.
Sixth, it took about 30 minutes to assemble. Even though the handles are wooden, you will still need heavy gloves to move the lid out of the way and move the riser. I have the 2010 model and the handles are sturdy and solid.

Create atmosphere anywhere. Now it is easy to have the warmth and atmosphere of an outdoor wood burning fireplace or campfire. Use the Weber Fireplace camping, on a patio or in the garden - anywhere you want to enjoy the fun of a fire without leaving a trace of it. Bring warmth to cool nights and an inviting glow to any occasion. Made of heavy-gauge steel construction, the lid and bowl are porcelain enameled, that won't rust, fade or burn. The heat shield is made of rust-resistant aluminum, and the support ring is galvanized steel.
