Modern firepits to keep you toasty and well-fed

The Lifestyle Kaida Traveller Foldable Camping Fire Pit

No way. Yes way! There is such a thing as portable, foldable modern firepits for camping – and it is a thing of wonder, an object of desire, a bloody brilliant idea. All the fun of real fire without having to cram a dirty great chunky thing into the car, leaving no room for the kids, your other half or most of your camping gear.

This is the Lifestyle Kaida Traveller Foldable Camping Fire Pit, the bargain of a lifetime at under seventy of your finest British pounds. It comes with a handy 12 month Lifestyle warranty. It is very easy to assemble and easy to store thanks to the folding legs, which lock with pins for excellent stability.

Your cooking area is a decent 55cm, and the whole fire pit is 72cm across by 40cm high. There’s a mesh fireguard for safety and a tool to lift the lid on and off safely. A tough carry-bag keeps everything tidy. At a weight of just 5.4 kg it won’t break your back, never mind the bank. A jolly good choice for adventures away from home.

The Lifestyle Calida MGO Contemporary Fire Pit

Is it wood and stone? No, but it looks a heck of a lot like real wood and stone- and that’s just one of the charms offered by the curvy Lifestyle Calida MGO Contemporary Fire Pit.

The cool stone effect finish of the MGO, which is frost, UV and rust-proof, looks gorgeous as well as being a tough material tailor-made to withstand high temperatures. The whole look is awesome. The big metal bowl burns wood or charcoal beautifully and safely with or without the mesh lid, ideal when the pit is left unsupervised or you’re not actually cooking on it. The removable chrome cooking grate makes tasty BBQ basics with ease, at a comfy height for chilled out chef-ing. And while it looks like it weighs a ton, it is actually surprisingly light, easy to move without knackering yourself.

A 12 month Lifestyle warranty and lid-lifting tool complete the picture to provide a fire pit measuring 75 cm across and 44 cm high, weighing in at a satisfyingly chunky yet lift-able 19.5 kilos.

The Lifestyle Signa Fire basket

This quirky Lifestyle Signa Fire basket takes the basic idea of a fire pit in a new direction, perfect for small-scale fires in the garden.

With its own attached ash catcher, this little beast is ideal for heating up smaller areas, providing lovely mood lighting and even cooking up a wee storm. With a handy BBQ cooking area measuring 34 cm across, there’s enough space to create tasty stuff for at least two.

Here’s how you keep life super-simple: a traditional, black steel basket with a beautiful, graceful shape and plenty of features. The cooking griddle/grate is removable. You get a fire poker, a 12 month Lifestyle warranty, and it is really simple to put together. You can’t say better than that, and at less than £100 it’s a top deal.
