Outdoor fire pits can sometimes be a little on the large and permanent size for smaller gardens. This is where some of the more modern looking outdoor fire place style ones come in. Neat, practical and easy enough to store out of sight or pop in the trunk for a camping trip, fire pits and bowls like the Landmann 28925 are growing in popularity.

The spark guard is part of the design and look, offering a great view of the fire itself, but remaining mostly in place when it comes to stoking the fire or adding another log, as you open the pivoting door rather than removing the whole thing.

This is a particularly safe fire pit to be using when kids are around since it is completely self contained (of course it will get hot – it’s steel, but great to know small hands cannot get into the fire itself).

What most customer reviews (check them out via the links above) and ourselves like though is the “ball of fire” design itself. It’s a little more complex than some fire bowls to put together since it is a globe, but the end result is a really modern piece of design and the fact that it seems to float after dark is simply magical. Like I said fitting a globe together might be a little tricky (but nothing too hard so long as you take your time, and get all the parts out to start with).

The design by Landmann USA is one I am sure will be widely copied as it provides and economical and stylish solution to the problem of enjoying a fire safely in your back yard. Plus its light enough to take camping too. Having the bowl itself open to air underneath has the advantage of making it easy to light a fire, and keep it going. A cooking grill might be nice but perhaps not quite so easy to incorporate into the design.
