Delayed our camping vacation a few days while we waited on the Howl heater to arrive in -4 degrees Cincinnati weather. We made it to Saint Augustine for the first leg of the trip and the unseasonably cold weather has followed us! Got to use the heater during the night for the first few days before torrential rain whacked us, locking us inside our camper. The heater works well! During the next phases of our adventure it will get to test its spirit in full. Heading to Gulf Shores Alabama next, th...

Super excited to have the Howl when we were camping! The flames are pleasing to watch and the heat that radiates from the barcoal kept our group of six cozy while we chatted into the night. We didn't have to haul wood, keep the fire going and use up our water supply to put the fire out. Also easy peasy to have a morning fire too. We are so fortunate to have a real campfire where no campfires are allowed.

As a former wildland fire guy in British Columbia I very much appreciate what Howl has done. Neck deep in campfire bans all over the Province I can rely on my Howl to keep me warm in difficult conditions. It has been about a month that I have been using the Howl Campfire and it does deliver what it claims. As I type a heli with a bucket just flew overhead, on it’s way to support a fire not too far down the valley from me. Thank you! Stay safe…

We (Veterans Back 40 Adventure non-profit) have been highly impressed with the Howl Campfire! No other propane firepit that we have used even comes close to the high level of heat, engineering, and durability that the Howl's provide. Everyone who stops by our camp wants to know what they are and how they work. Thank you for keeping our Veterans engaged by the campfire during our events! Keep up the ingenious engineering!

First night camping in the cold and this was a game changer. Definitely stayed outside longer and enjoyed the wilderness more with the comfort of heat and light from the howl.

Living in the mountains of the southwest United States, I've experienced an increasing number of yearly fire restrictions and burn bans in my lifetime. This gets frustrating for us responsible, well-mannered campers that would like to enjoy conversation and drinks around a campfire when out camping with friends. So when I first heard of the Howl campfire project a couple years ago via an Outside article, I subscribed to Howl's mail list and began following their progress on Instagram. I was impr...

This fire pit is awesome. The heat output is amazing and I constantly find myself backing up as my legs get too hot. I look forward to camping with this fire pit.

This thing is small and packs a punch for sure! We bought one of those backyard fire pits for camping that have the lava rock and such for burn ban season and it was definitely just for mood. This thing throws a ton of heat and flames out (not in a terrifying way) and is so much easier to pack up to go camping. We are even talking about getting the R4 for the backyard.

First “adventure” with the Howl. Top notch quality is obvious. Hot as Hell as advertised. It takes up less space than the traditional propane fire pit, plus, the pups love it!

Howl R4 Mark ii - is truly amazing device. You have to sit down next to it to really 'feel' the warmth and wicked heat that the BarCoal radiates with the added pleasure of the A flame licking bright long flames from the surface. All of this in a compact package you can fold down and strap to your propane tank and hit the road.

I have waited 2 years to purchase this product and could not be happier. It was 25 degrees that evening and the heat from this unit is unbelievable even with a stiff coastal wind.

Living in Colorado there’s almost always a fire restriction 3/4 of the year. As an avid overlander, I was over not having a fire at the end of day. Decided it was time to invest in a propane fire pit/box. After taking the time to do some research the Howl seemed way ahead of the competitors in quality and craftsmanship. And it’s made right here in Arvada, CO. So I made the purchase and was instantly surprised at the craftsmanship. Amaziny well built. I would even say it’s a BIFL fire box. I put ...

I’ve wanted to enjoy a fire in the backyard that I could easily take car camping but my wife hates that everything always smells like smoke. The howl campfire is amazing, spent the night hanging out with friends and looking at the stars. And the barcoal heat is amazing I’m never buying a propane fire that looks nice but has no really thermal capability. This is changes everything for my family and enjoying the outdoors. I’m would say I’m a gear guy and this is definitely one of my three all time...

We have used the Howl numerous times since picking it up a couple weeks ago. It has been awesome. As much as I love a good campfire, the heat, simplicity and just how cool it looks, the Howl is fantastic.

I love it! My family loves it too! No more searching for a place that sells firewood and hauling the wood around making a mess in my vehicles. No more trying to start a wood fire in a slight breeze. Living in California, with all the wildfires, we love that this unit will not send embers off in the wind to start fires. No more worring to put a wood fire out before leaving a site. Next trip to SoCal its coming with us to the beach! Great product and proud that it's made right here on U....

I live in Northern California and have experienced numerous fire bans at campsites over the last few years. Having grown up camping all my life and loving the end of a day around a campfire, fire bans have been rough. I was determined to find a solution. Howl was it!! I randomly saw a IG post of it in the snow and read a review. Then deep dived into the story, R & D, the company and product. Amazing. I just got back from my first trip with it. It kicks ass!! As good as a campfire and ma...

I have been comparing various campfire solutions for van life. Solo Stove Ranger, Biolite, Solo Stove Mesa, Ignik, and after attending an event where I saw all in action settled on Howl R1. It's compact, puts out a good flame, and lots of heat.

The Howl R4 MKii is unlike any other propane fire pit. Until I experienced it I thought it was too expensive, but it feels just like a camp fire! Also no worries about the lingering smoke smells in my clothes and camping gear.

Love the R1! Compact, great flame height, puts out a ton of heat for its size, and lasts forever on a tank. Kept everyone happy and warm at our retreat. This little guy's gonna get a ton of use 😁

Absolutely enjoyed the first use - my only concern was that it used a lot of propane relatively quickly (1 hour ) - and as the tank got lower the Barcoal burner stopped getting full heat - when I turned down the A frame , the barcoal got hotter, but never full heat again even though the BC valve was on HIGH How long should a full standard bbq propane tank last with both valves on high ? We live in Telluride - attitude 8750 ish Very excited and happy the howl minus the above listed co...

It's big, but it sure is warm with great heat and ambience. If you've got the room and want some warmth, this is the propane campfire you want! I have all the others and this is the best by far. I just ordered the small one for summer camping but the big boy will come on all my winter Jeep outing and group events.

Our first camp trip with our Howl Campfire was to Merus Adventure Park in the Palo Duro Canyon located SE of Amarillo Texas. A hard burn ban is in place across the entire area and signs were everywhere “ No fires allowed. “ I asked the park director if we could use our Howl Campfire as he said no problem. I think we had the only meaningful campfire in the entire canyon. The instant heat is wonderful in the early morning hours. What I was most surprised by is how well the Howl Campfire produces...

Super compact for travel, while packing a ton of power. Gave that wood fire vibe, but was compliant with fire restrictions. Highly recommend and really happy with the quality build and performance. Would buy again.

Built like a tank, the Howl R1 is designed like a fortress of fire! Perfect for off grid camping adventures or just chilling on the patio with friends. Lots of flame control from a mild calming flicker to a raging face melting inferno! I’m really impressed, well done Howl!

I recently purchased the Howl MKII and just now doing my first burn. The quality built into the Howl is amazing. It’s a work of art it look at! Every piece, part, and assemble oozes precision quality. The bar coals are a game changer when it comes to propane pits. While the A flames dance around nicely, even in a strong wind, those bar coals have me backing up my chair! I’m surprised the amount of radiant heat they provide. I’m only on my first burn with this pit and am highly pleased with its f...

I returned my R1 for an R4, no regrets. The bar coal is fn awesome and probably what I use the most. It is really nice to have the warmth at night without the flames. I even kick it on at home in the morning while having my coffee outside

It’s lasted about 7 hours so far and I still have about a quarter of propane still left in my 20 lb tank! It’s been with me camping and on the beach on a VERY windy day and it held up very well in the wind! Absolutely worth every penny!

It was well worth the wait. Compact, simple to set up, puts off so much heat. Customer service was great and took great care of the initial shipping issue promptly. The only thing I could suggest for it is a heavy duty dual purpose travel bag/cover.

The Howl has already been a major asset on my team's trips. We have only had a month or so with it but being colder months the unit is already getting put to work. Not only are we using it for recreation but for work. When we are out on shoots, long days handling camera equipment we can warm up by the Howl and keep the team warm without fire pits, wood, smoke, worry of burn bans, etc. The unit is also super stout giving me confidence it won't be a liability on a trip and keep working day in and ...

The Howl team went above and beyond—shipping my R-1 fire pit from order to doorstep in just two days. I needed it in time for our annual camping trip, a tradition we started to honor a close friend who passed away in 2018. Every year, friends and family gather to celebrate his life outdoors. Unfortunately, the past few years have brought cold weather and rain, and with campfire restrictions in place, I knew we needed a reliable propane fire pit. The R-1 turned out to be exactly what we needed. ...
