Flame Genie
« Reply #-1 on: January 19, 2014, 10:11:07 AM »
I saw this on another forum and I like it. They did a product review and it works as advertised. If I didn't already have a large fire pit in the side yard and a small outdoor fireplace on my deck in the back yard I would get one of these. Maybe I could get one to take along on camp outs.  Very cool

Utube vid shows up on my PC. Very cool but what would be the pellet consumption per/hr if anyone has one?

Man, that is a great idea.  Now, where would I use it around here?  Let me work on the "need" part, and where I would store it.

Looks to me like it is mostly just for looks, and about all you could cook on it would be hot dogs and marshmallows! Just MHO Don

I don't think it was designed for cooking. It's just for heating, and it looks cool but I'm sure somebody around here could figure out a way to cook on it.

Here is the video review. They start off using 6 lbs of pellets so you would need to find some inexpensive home heating pellets. They say they were able to purchase 100% Hardwood Heating Pellets for $4.89/40lbs. So it's not too expensive to use this if you can find cheap pellets.

It is a pretty cool firepit that runs on heating pellets.

Would be great for camping or even the back patio. It burns clean with very little smoke unlike a wood fire pit.
