This is a great little fire pit. It is super lightweight and comes in two pieces; the foot and the bowl. It is very tidy, both in use and clean-up.  It is the right size for cordwood and burns down to almost no ash at all; like a couple of centimeters of fine ash dust!  When it's cooled down, the top can be lifted easily to be the compost or ashcan or whatever.  It can be stored on a shelf when not in use.  We can take it camping with us and it holds the fire off the ground which can be helpful. I've owned lots of fire pits over the years and they have always been some kind of variation on a big round bowl, and they have never burned off completely, often leaving a smoldering mess of coal and ash. I did drill and a few more air holes in the bottom of the firepan and a couple more in the foot to increase airflow. We've had it for over a year now and it still looks like it did out of the box.
