I'd pull the trigger if you're thinking about it, heck it's Costco return it if you don't like it after you buy.

With that said, I'm not sure I'd make that trade now. I really like my Bonfire and I've hauled it around the yard/next door a few times. The Bonfire seems small at times, but in all honesty, it's grown on me as being the ideal size.
Also keep in mind that to be "smokeless" it has to be hot enough to burn off the excess smoke. To keep a Yukon hot enough to be smokeless, you're going to burn more wood. The Bonfire burns wood a lot faster than you think, so I'm guessing a Yukon would burn even more.
Regardless, I'd buy this if I didn't already have a bonfire.
Dad joke edit: "why is this not listed as a 'hot deal' yet?"
A note on wood consumption, I usually start the fire with a couple fire starters, a handful of twigs, and 4-5 pieces of oak wood. That's usually good enough for a couple hours of burn, and I'll throw another one or two on if we're still sitting out there. I'm ok with that burn rate.

These things are overrated. Here's how to save yourself $250.
1. Go on Facebook marketplace or Craigslist or landfill and find a free/broken Washing Machine (the kind for clothes). Chances are it will have a solid stainless steel drum inside.
2. Remove the stainless steel drum from the washing machine, detach any plastic from it.
3. Buy some metal legs/stand to set it in. I use a cast iron stand laying around from a giant garden pot that broke. Also got for free on marketplace.
4. Fill with firewood and light.
(OPTIONAL) Buy ~$25 of aluminum fencing to make a small safety barrier to keep people from touching it.
BOOM. Now you have yourself a bonfire that works BETTER than a solo stove because the mesh of the drum provides even more airflow. And it looks almost exactly the same as a solo stove
