Question 1

What is the Chiminea Topper and what does it do?

The Chiminea Topper transforms your Bonfire and Summit 19.5" Solo Stove Fire Pit into a more controlled flame experience. It sits directly on top of your fire pit, resembling a traditional chiminea, but also features an internal heat deflector that directs warmth through the opening and toward you and your guests. The result is up to 30% more heat right where you want it, amplifying the flame’s magical swirl and helping to contain the flame and reduce sparks.
