Paint peeling? It says high temp but even if it peels, so what? It will still function and $9 is cheap. For actual cooking, consider a gasifying stick stove for a bit more. I have this and like it: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071P1X3ML/ It's slower than butane but you don't need to carry the fuel.
Go camp somewhere. Peace.

In order for it to be allowed during fire restrictions you have to have direct control, with a mechanism, over the fire
Whitegas stoves, propane grills, propane firepits are allowed, "contained" open fuel is not.
That said, most times you would just get a warning if you put it out in front of whoever was there, opposed to a ticket.
(I used to work for the Forest Service and now Fish and Game).
But to be very specific, Massachusetts (and other states) does not count a contained cooking fire as an open burn. To quote the law, from https://www.mass.gov/info-details...ing-safety
What about Fire Pits?
Fire pits have become popular in recent years. But unless they are being used for cooking, they are subject to the MassDEP open burning regulation. If you do use a fire pit for cooking, the fire must be:
Kept to a reasonable size
Located away from combustible materials
Contained in a non-flammable enclosure, and
Tended by someone who is 18 years of age or older.
Hence a hot dog and a stick. Of course you are still on the hook to be sensible.
Some tips:
>Don't pour water on it to put it out, it will warp. Turn it over to empty it on bare ground and then pour water over the coals and stir around to put it out.
>Let it cool off; rap it on the ground a few times; put it in a disposable bag to bring it home.
>It's Walmart. If the description of the high temp paint i.e. grill paint is a lie then return it for a refund.
>Very likely it look like cr*p and be fully functional for many uses. Have you seen what a $400 Solo stove *actually* looks like after you use it? Check it out: https://youtu.be/5MO3kDve7WA?t=2
Advice: For reasons unknown, the community of Youtube and self appointed experts work really hard to convince people that you can only go outdoors if you buy expensive, fussy, highly monetized equipment. Ignore them and go outdoors.
Good luck and enjoy a small fire!
Would suggest you get anything else, but not this. Happy camping, SD!
PS -- Genuinely would not be shocked if there were a recall and/or lawsuit over this in a few years.
