Hi all, looking for feedback on your Costco fire pits. Been going back and forth on fire burning (ie, Hot Shot) vs gas pit (ie, Sunbeam wine barrel one or others). Did a good amount of research but can’t decide.

We just moved into a new house and don’t want to be “that annoying” neighbor with burning smoke. Watched reviews with the HotShot still giving off smoke but can’t tell how bothersome that’d be for neighbors.

The gas pits - a bit concerned if they last long term due to upkeep with the gas burners.

Would appreciate any feedback. They’re an expensive purchase so thinking Costco is safest for returns if needed. Thanks!
