Overview

A propane fire pit is not the same romance as wood, but it can be the difference between no fire and a clean, easy hangout.

The Firebowl 870 runs off a standard propane tank, so you get real flame and heat without smoke, ash, or wondering if the last group buried hot coals under the dirt. You turn a knob, hit ignition, and have a clean controlled fire that feels a lot safer in dry Arizona seasons.

The 19 inch bowl is big enough to feel like a real campfire instead of a little tabletop toy. Lava rocks spread the heat and make the flame pattern look more natural. When it is time to leave, you shut the gas off and you are done. No hauling water buckets, no stirring mud, no half burned junk left behind.


Best for Fire-restricted campgrounds where propane is allowed, beach trips, smoke-sensitive groups, and easy evening hangouts.
Not for Backpacking, strict no-flame rules, people who need real cooking coals, or anyone who hates hauling propane.

If you want to keep the campfire ritual alive without worrying about sparks or bans, a propane pit like this feels like cheating in a good way.

Choose It / Skip It
Choose it You want a clean campfire feel for vehicle camping, smoke-sensitive groups, beach trips, or places where propane is allowed and wood is not smart.
Skip it You have to walk far, propane is not allowed, you need cooking coals, or the current fire rules say no open flame.

Always check local fire restrictions first. Propane is easier than wood, but it is still flame.

My Notes

This is the easy button, and sometimes the easy button is the right call. Just do not confuse clean flame with zero responsibility.

  • Confirm local rules before assuming propane is allowed.
  • Plan propane tank storage and hose routing.
  • Let it cool before packing and keep the lava rock mess contained.
