Almost purchased a Solo Stove over the weekend. If you have one, how is it?
I have the Yukon one and I loooooooove it. I stuff so much crap into it to burn. I live in a really wooded area and we cut down a bunch of samplings/smaller trees a couple weeks ago. Also cut my Christmas three from three years ago up in three pieces and burned it in sections. Was finally glad to get rid of the Christmas dead tree chilling in my yard Was a lot less smoky than other firepits I've used.
I'd recommend getting a cover for it, either their brand or another. If the ashes get wet they almost seem to turn to cement and if it rains before you get a chance to dump it, it's a pita.
How's the heat around the fire pit? I keep reading that the heat goes straight up and not around. There's a video with a guy using one and he says he won't use it during the winter cause it doesn't have much radiant heat.

Hardly any heat around it. All goes straight up.
Well for me, I thought it got really really hot. But I'm kind of a weenie about heat.

After a fire, how long do I have to wait to use my Solo Stove Handle?
Solo Stove Handle is to be used when your fire pit is completely cool.
