While I initially hesitated to purchase the Solo Sticks (I mean, I'm a guy that grew up on a farm...I pretty much knew a stick from a branch would do the job); I'm thrilled I added them to the Cart before completing my order! Love the two piece construction and the great length you get when 'assembled'. Easy to roast hot dogs and s'mores from a safe distance. Cleans simply and you know you're using something safe/sterile when cooking food. If you're purchasing a Solo Stove and KNOW you'll cook something over those flames, then you should absolutely add the Solo Sticks to your order!
