I own a different smoke-less fire pit. Mine weighs 42 lbs and is stainless steel. It is roughly twice the weight compared to the similarly sized solo-stove.
The fire pit is not smokeless. It is Smoke-less. It produces less smoke, not no smoke.
The fire pit only produces less smoke if it is hot and has a convection current up through the holes around the top.
How heavy duty is this one? Well, it's much bigger (mine is 19" diameter) and this one is 50% bigger at around 30". It weighs twice as much as mine. I assume it will hold up for years to come since it is stainless steel. I think it is worth the price.
This is more similar to Solo Stove than Breeo. The material is good, but it's very thin. Not an issue if you take care of it, but...wow, I was surprised how thin the metal was. Breeo is a beast compared to this. But Breeo is overkill for most people, too, maybe, and twice the price.
To each their own.
As to the "how can it be smokeless" comments....when you get these things going, they are extremely hot and efficient. The smoke is essentially 0%, it's pretty amazing.
We bought the Breeo X19 on a whim for our cabin. After using it a few times, my wife insisted we get the X24 for our house. You really don't smell like campfire after using these things, if you use it properly. We have a large patio fire pit in our backyard and will just set out Breeo inside it, haha.
Thanks for your feedback. I'm trying to figure out if I want this or a solo.

I have a solo stove bonfire and love it. We use it up on our deck, however I'm going this for our patio since it doesn't need to be moved and it comes with all the accessories and has a ring around it. I would get this over the Yukon for sure.
This is super cereal. I demand no smoke! Also, I remembern mock trial in like 1997 having case with a defendant named Nosmo King. Took me way too long to figure that out as an adolescent.

You don't want the Sam's club one unless it's $100 or less. The exterior powder coated panels are thin metal and each require 4 screws onto the legs which are eventual failure points. Get the solo that's fully welded and doesn't require any assembly.
Bought the Sams one just over a year ago for $250 and I don't even remember it being on a big sale, so don't believe the $500 regular price.
As for the quality, I'm pleased. I keep mine uncovered and it is in great condition. The stainless is a bit discolored from the heat, but I think that's expected. I did put the lid on without fully extinguishing the embers from a fire and the paint did not withstand the heat, so don't make that silly mistake like I did.

Did you get the xl or regular? This xl one is massive
This thing is the real deal. It has been out in the elements for 2 years now in Ohio weather. Zero rust. It's big, sturdy, and it works like a damn blast furnace! Don't think, just buy. I tried to buy a second earlier this year and they have been out of stock for a long time.

How many pieces of wood do you think it takes this pit to get up to temp for the secondary burn to start?

I LOVE My Breeo, cook on it all the time. This listing doesn't mention whether or not the ring can be used as a sear plate like on the Breeo. There is also no cooking stand option on this. My only complaint about the Breeo is that I got the X19 and wish they had a trade-up program as I want the X24. The X19 does encounter wood which is a just a little too large from time to time.
Smoke less =/ Smoke free. There must be a byproduct when burning wood. I can say that the Breeo is far less smoky than your average fire ring.
Because of how efficient these types of fire pits are, they consume much more wood than a disposable fire pit.

Breeo is overkill, I agree. An alternative with sturdier material is the tiki fire pit. It even includes the stand and cover. Mine has survived the rain and winter without any sign of wear. It's been used at least 50 times.

They don't say 0% smoke like you did.
