You know the dad. He's the one who disappears for ten minutes and comes back with an armful of wood. The one who pokes the fire when nobody asked him to, then leans back, satisfied, like he just performed surgery. The fire is his. And honestly? Nobody's mad about it, because his fires are the reason everyone's still outside at eleven o'clock telling stories.
This Father's Day, get him something that earns its place in that ritual. Here's the whole Solo Stove fire pit lineup, plus the accessories worth wrapping up — sorted out so you can find the one that fits him.
If he wants fire without the fuss — Infinity Flame Propane Fire Pit
Not every dad wants to split kindling. Some just want to flip a switch, cue the playlist, and exhale. That's the Infinity Flame.
It's our first-ever propane fire pit, and it doesn't feel like one. A dual-burner design and a center disc pull off something most gas pits never manage — the real rise and swirl of a wood flame, minus the wood, ash, and sparks. A wide tabletop rim runs around the edge, so there's somewhere to set a drink and a little breathing room between curious hands and the heat. One 20-lb tank gets you north of five and a half hours on high, closer to nine and a half if you dial it back. Turn-of-the-knob warmth, all season long. Perfect for the dad dealing with burn bans, tight on time, or just done hauling firewood.
Want to round it out? The Infinity Flame + Surround Surface bundle adds a flat top that covers the whole pit when it's cool — so it pulls double duty as a patio table the rest of the time.
If he wants the most advanced fire pit we make — the Summit Series
This is the one for the dad who reads the spec sheet. Summit is the most advanced thing we build, designed around two ideas: a bigger, brighter, more mesmerizing flame, and a fire that's almost embarrassingly easy to start. Lower walls mean every seat gets a front-row view. The Easy-Light system means he's not crouched over the pit cursing at damp kindling.
Three sizes, depending on his backyard:
Summit 19.5" seats four to six and uses our Quick-Strike Base Plate to get smaller log stacks going fast. Great for a patio, a townhome, a smaller circle.
Summit 24" is the sweet spot for most dads. Seats five to seven, throws 25% more visible flame than the Bonfire, and lights up to three times faster than old-school kindling when you add our Fire Starter Gel. Big enough to feel like an occasion, easy enough for a random Tuesday.
Summit 27" is built for the dad who hosts. Seats six to eight, uses our Quick-Strike Cone to funnel flame up through the middle and light bigger fires faster, and the removable ash pan means cleanup takes about as long as it takes to read this sentence.
If he just wants a great fire pit — the Classics
The Bonfire, Basecamp, Yukon, and Canyon are the pits that put us on the map. No frills, no fuss — just the same smokeless 360° airflow that started it all, in four sizes, at a friendlier price.
Bonfire 19.5" + Stand Bundle is the original. Twenty pounds, seats four to six, light enough to follow the night from the deck to the backyard to a buddy's place. For the dad who likes to keep his options open.
Basecamp 24" + Stand Bundle is for the dad who's found his spot and isn't moving. Seats five to seven and built to live outside as the everyday fire — the one he lights without thinking about it.
Yukon 27" + Stand Bundle is where it gets serious. Thirty-eight pounds, seats six to ten, and throws heat six to seven feet out. No learning curve, no gadgets. Stack it, light it, stand back. A classic for a reason.
Canyon 30" + Stand Bundle is the big one. Our largest pit — thirty inches, fifty-five pounds, room for eight-plus, and a heat radius that reaches everyone. If his backyard can hold it, the Canyon becomes the centerpiece the whole space is built around.
If he's already got the fire pit — the accessories
Sometimes the best gift isn't a new pit. It's the thing that makes the one he already loves even better. Each of these does one job, and does it well.
Heat Deflector — The upgrade he'll feel immediately. Solo Stove pits push heat up by design; the Deflector redirects it down and out, straight to where everyone's sitting. On a cold night, it's the difference between heading inside and staying out another hour. If he uses his pit for warmth and not just looks, start here.
Fire Pit Surround — More table, more peace of mind. It wraps around the pit to create a solid surface for drinks and snacks, plus a heat-dispersing buffer between the flames and the people leaning in close. A real help if there are kids or pets in the mix. Comes in three sizes to fit any pit in the lineup.
Surround Surface — For the Surround he might already own. It caps the whole thing off into a full tabletop when there's no fire going, and shields the pit from the weather while it's at it. Fire night or not, the setup always looks like it's supposed to be there.
Station Side Table — Everything in arm's reach. Firewood, tools, lids, shields, roasting sticks — all of it stowed right where he needs it, so he's not getting up every five minutes. The quiet gift that makes every fire night run smoother.
Shield — For the dad burning near a deck, a rug, or furniture he actually likes. It knocks down sparks and stray ash before they reach anything they shouldn't. Not flashy, but anyone who's ever spotted a scorch mark on a good cushion knows exactly why it matters.
Fire Pit Tools — A stainless steel poker and grabber, angled to keep his hands clear of the heat while he works the fire. The kind of thing he'd never buy himself and would use every single time.
Roasting Sticks — Because the night usually ends in s'mores. Premium, longer reach than the gas-station kind, and they break down to stash with the rest of his gear. The finishing touch on a fire well tended.
However he likes to do it — a quick propane flame on a weeknight or a slow-burning Yukon that keeps the whole crew out past their bedtime — there's something here that makes his fire better. Find the one that fits him, light it up, and let him do what he does best.
