One even included a protective heat shield that allowed it to be used on different surfaces. When it came to portability, the top performers were smaller, lighter, included carrying cases, and burned a wider range of materials. In terms of materials and construction, stainless steel scored best for overall durability, while other types of steel coated with high-temperature paint offer an affordable alternative. With the exception of the gas fire pit, the testing process was virtually the same: Assemble the fire pit, light the fire, fill the burn chamber to capacity, and then observe the flame quality, burn-down time, and ash volume. We determined that the most important factors in choosing a smokeless fire pit included high-quality construction, ease of transportation and assembly, longer burn time, low smoke, and less ash.

Depending on the model, these fire pits can burn gas, wood, pellets, and even biomass (a fuel source from renewable organic material derived from plants and animals). Smokeless fire pits work via a double-wall design that creates warmth and flickering flames without producing smoke (though depending on fuel, they may produce ash and embers). But traditional fire pits can produce a significant amount of unpleasant smoke and ash, which can cause coughing and leave a strong smell on clothing and hair.
