Camping, RV and patio review sites default to the Outland 893 Deluxe for one simple reason: it works, it's CSA-certified, and it costs half what its rivals charge. At 23 lbs and 19 inches across it fits a truck bed or a small patio corner, and it runs 7+ hours on a 20-lb tank. The reviewer at YuenX scored it 4.35/5 across performance, ease of use and value after long-term ownership testing.

Strengths
  • — CSA-certified for use during most fire bans — keeps you in fires when wood pits are banned, per YuenX
  • — Pre-attached 10-foot hose, lava rocks, propane tank stabilizer, and carry kit all in the box
  • — 7-12 hours of burn time per 20-lb propane tank depending on flame setting, per YuenX
Watch-outs

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
