Ranked #5 in Best Fire Pits

Landmann Big Sky Stars and Moons 28345

4.0

1 sourceall derived$109as of Nov 2

For over a decade Landmann's Big Sky has been the benchmark entry-level traditional wood fire pit. Its 24-inch deep firebowl with the iconic star-and-moon cutouts handles full fire bundles and throws warm radiant heat in all directions, and screen, grate and poker are all included for well under $150. Smoke management and finish quality don't match the Yukon, but the backyard fire experience is authentic for roughly a third of the price.

Strengths

— 24-inch firebowl with 12.5-inch depth — actual capacity for full fire bundles, not a shallow trinket pit
— Comes complete with spark screen, enamel cooking grate, and poker — ready to use out of the box
— Sub-$150 price gives traditional wood-fire ambiance without Solo Stove pricing

Watch-outs

— No drainage holes — water pools after rain and must be tipped out before next use

Outland Living Firebowl Mega 883

4.6

1 source$214.99as of Nov 2

Outdoor Gear Lab's favorite portable propane fire pit is the Outland Mega, which scored 82/100 in their 17-pit test and landed just behind two Solo Stoves overall. At 24 inches across with 58,000 BTUs of output, it bridges the gap between a camping firebowl and a true patio centerpiece. A pre-attached 10-foot hose, CSA fire-ban certification and 7-9 hour burn time per 20-lb tank make it the easy pick when you want fire without firewood.

Strengths

— Outdoor Gear Lab ranked it #3 of 17 at 82/100 — the top-rated propane pit in their 2026 test
— 58,000 BTU output measured at 600-700F surface temperature, enough to warm 5-6 people
— CSA-certified safe to use during most local fire bans

Watch-outs

— Manual ignition only (no battery-powered starter), so you light it with the included flint each time
