Similar Products
While there are other kits available from specialty stores and Amazon, what stands out about this kit is the superior and modern design. This product will last for a long time if taken care of.
The fuel source is also a differentiator. Our fuel lasted 3 hours and most of the units under $50 seem to have limited fuel sources.
Safety
Safety is paramount when dealing with open flames indoors. The S’mores by TerraFlame Fire Bowl impresses with its sturdy construction and stable base. The wooden handle on the skewers ensures a cool grip. However, it’s essential to keep the kit out of reach of children, and watch out if you have long hair. Also, never leave the flame unattended.
