Realistically, you can easily make your own fire pit just by placing a ring of rocks or bricks around a scooped-out hole of dirt. (Be sure to take proper safety precautions and double-check local regulations first.) But if you want a dedicated, elevated fire pit that's specially made for cooking, camping, or cozying up on a cool summer night, you've got options.
We have five fire pits to recommend after meticulous research and hands-on testing — including two models from Solo Stove, the buzzed-about direct-to-consumer brand that took "smokeless" pits mainstream a few years ago. Read on for a breakdown of each pick before you run out for some s'mores fixings.
