Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is a pretty cool item. I took off a star for the following: 1. It doesn’t burn long enough. When it goes out, you can’t re-fill until it cools off. So I wish it had a deeper well. 2. The box is made of a rough metal. I wiped it with a paper towel, and now there’s white lint stuck to it that I cannot get off. I thought it would have a smoother, brushed finish. That said, the positives outweigh the negatives. I’ll probably purchase a second unit so I can light it when the first one goes out if I’m still entertaining. You can sprinkle some fire glass around the outside of the well. It works fine and looks nice. I bought denatured alcohol, based on other reviews. It works perfectly and is much cheaper than what’s sold on Amazon with this item. $12 for a gallon. It puts out a nice little amount of heat for sitting around a picnic table. The fuel says not to use it to cook, so I wouldn’t plan on roasting marshmallows or hot dogs on it. The instructions don’t mention the piece of cotton that comes in the well. I thought it was packing material and almost threw it away. It’s actually the wick. Pour the fuel over it and light it. You can use it over and over. I use mine under a 12x10 gazebo and there are no issues with heat. I highly recommend this for your outdoor space!
