Since i see very little information about this firepit online figured id share my experience. i have a solo stove bonfire and saw this hotshot and bought it. I needed a spark arrestor for it and since the hotshot comes with one ends up being much cheaper. after using it for a bit ill probably end up selling the solo as its got a lot more resale value used due to name brand. the solo with cover, spark shield, and stand would cost somewhere in the mid 400s. the hotshot was 299 in store and included all those things plus the cook grate. Some comparisons. - The flame on the solo is much different, its very slow and flowy (is that makes sense). its pretty mesmerizing and unique. hotshot looks more like a standard firepit. - smoke creation is about the same between the two. - solo is fully welded, hotshot is combo welded and screws - the tool cracked in box. called the 800 number and they said they dont offer parts. this was discouraging. went to costco and they gave me the floor models tool. if there are any issues with parts, this could be a problem long term. -both made of 304 stainless so should last.

February 26, 2022 -
Just saw this at my local Costco, looks like a knockoff of the Solo firepit. This one is a tad bigger than the Solo Bonfire model and includes a smoke screen, base, cover, and grate for grilling. $289.99 in store here.
Anyone have any experience? Can't find much online for actual reviews.

I'd bet it's almost identical. The Solo Stove wasn't really a brand new idea. Rednecks did it with a dryer drum for years.

Just saw these today. Says it's a 22" pit - about the same size as a Bonfire.
But, for $300, you get the pit, a mesh spark screen, protective cover, and grill grate.

Stated to be 100% 304 Stainless Steel. The finish isn't as nice as on a Bonfire, but the price point sure is much nicer, especially with all of the accessories included.

I’m doing a new paver patio and I need a new fire pit. Saw this one today at my local Costco. Has anyone had any experience with this smokeless fire pit?
Top answer 1 of 32

The problem with smokeless firepits in general is that they send the heat straight up and they burn thru wood fast.

Don’t get these unless it has a heat deflector, or else it will just be a cylinder of heat sent straight up into the air. I went with the Turbro brand on Amazon, the pit and the heat deflector accessory is right around $200. We have used it heavily the last year at home and camping and it’s been perfect

Seems pretty obviously a knock-off of the Solo Stoves which are everywhere advertising wise. Anybody who's familiar with both have anything to share on the relative qualities/functionality of the two? The Costco set comes with the cooking surface and screen included which is nice.

Can’t comment on that but I have the tiki brand from Amazon and love it. Cheaper than solo.

I bought one, had friends over and bought them each one the next day! The cooking is fine, size is nice, heat from it is great, but that just means I can't use it until September... But I love it.
