Solo stove was first of its kind and they have built an entire ecosystem of accessories that works with their product and looks good while doing it. There are a lotta copy cats in the market such as hotshot, Sam’s club fire pit, duraflame etc. In the long run most of these products perform the same based on how to store them. Even a solo stove would get rusted to hell if left outside with no cover. I love my bonfire and have stuck to solo stove accessories but there are plenty of vendors out there depending on your affordability. More on reddit.com

As someone who probably has every accessory besides the new deflector...I'd say each one has a use case but it depends on how you're using it. The lid is awesome if you want to use it as a table when you're not using it. The stand is great if you're on grass and don't want to kill it or if you're on a wood deck. The spark shield is great if your wood tends to "pop"...I have multiple holes in my patio chair cushions from NOT using it. The cover is great if you are somewhere that gets rain or snow Even the pokers and skewers are super well built, I used to buy cheap ones but ended up replacing them sort of frequently, these things will hold up forever.
