While others were burning wood and smoking us out, the howl is odorless and provided the ease of lighting a fire and drying our wet clothes without the flames when turned off.

First trip using the Howl. Solid build and functions as described. Great alternative to wood fires in Colorado. Really appreciate how easy it is to enjoy on demand fire. Love supporting Made in USA and Colorado companies!

We are trailer campers in CO. When you can’t burn wood, which is fairly common in a high desert environment, you need a gas fire pit. The Howl fire pit blows “regular” fire pits away. Great heat, great flame, and none of that lava rock dust and PITA. Highly recommended!

Absolutely love it! I have always been a wood fire only kinda guy due to gas fire pits being all looks and no heat. The howl R4 is an absolute beast that keeps us outside well into the night. The term “thigh melting heat” is no joke. Worth the price without question.
Burn bans are more and more common, having a safe and effective heat source like this is truly a game changer.

The heat presented by the R4 was fantastic. Being able to come out and sit in the morning to a nice fire without having to worry about fire closures in the area is great.

Howl is a complete game-changer for outdoor camping and keeping you warm — I’ve used it for hunting all season long (snow and rain), allowing us to get warm while making dinner out of the truck. As it warms up after a few minutes, it puts out some serious heat. We've also used it at the house for roasting marshmallows with the kids. No smoke, all the heat. It's nice to not have to worry about wood. Also, using the strap allows you to secure it to the propane tank while in transport. 🔥

This little thing is pretty sweet. If you’re looking for max warmth on a hunting trip I would go with the big one. The R1 is perfect for ambiance and heat on a cool night. I was skeptical of the flame height and happily proven wrong. Great size, great addition to my gear kit.

Small but mighty portable fire pit. Super easy to operate and definitely put out the heat. I’m excited to test it up in the mountains when it’s actually cold, not these warm LA nights.

So glad that I got the R4. It put out a lot of heat. We actually turned it down with how much heat it was producing. Everyone really enjoyed it and how well it is built.

Love how easy it is to set up and have a fire going. We normally have to situate our rig in a way to make sure the smoke from a normal fire isn’t billowing inside making everything smell like smoke.
We park, and then put the howl wherever we want to sit. Daytime? Set it up in the shade! Windy? Set it up behind a windbreak. Not windy but want some ambiance, set it up on top of a cement picnic table! Whatever ya want!

Great fire in a small package. Nothing beats a real fire, but when it comes to a burn banned this is why I love my Howl R1! I would 100% recommend this portable fire pit.

I brought this campfire to a Vanlife meetup and it was the biggest hit! We had a warm, welcoming spot for everyone to come hang out and it was perfect for chilly desert nights in New Mexico. I seriously can't wait to use this year round and continue to offer a space for people to meet and converse and stay warm and toasty.

Portable and convenient little fire! Great for when I don’t want to maintain or build a wood fire. Fits perfectly around my campsite and love that I can use it during burn bans :)

I own two wood fire pits and love the vibe of using them. The new Howl brings this experiene to another level. Being able to get to a site with your camper and in a matter of minutes setting it up it's priceless.

Love the Howl!
Quality of workmanship is fantastic. We get campfire bans every year so are going to enjoy this so much over our current lousy propane fire ring. We had a wood burning fire last weekend but it was damp and cold so we put the howl between our camp chairs and felt much warmer. I always say you get what you pay for and I feel I got very good value with the howl. I think I will be passing it down to my kids. Just would like to have an option to cook a pot of stew on it.
Very sat...

Just took our r1 on an RV trip across western Colorado and Utah. Fire risks are super high so wood fires are banned at almost every campground we’ve stayed at and the Howl has been a great alternative.
It’s super compact, sets up really fast, and creates a great fire. Way better than trying to lug around a gas fire pit designed to live on your backyard!
Could not be happier with the purchase.
As a side note, I live in Colorado and picked up my r1 from Howel directly. Can absolutely confirm t...

Received my R1 yesterday much sooner than originally anticipated. Thank you for that. I ordered a carrying bag from the he OverlandGearGuy and went with the camouflage set up and they are meant for us who don’t want our R1 to get banged around in our trucks . So far so good . The only recommendation i have for the future is please include the propane hose with the red barrel b made out of metal and not plastic please . Thank you

I just got mine today and fired it up. It was so interesting I ran it again after dark to watch the barcoal part better as it heated.
It is impressive, especially the infrared tube design and operation. As a mechanical engineer who focused on thermal fluids, it is really fun to see and feel this in action. I had a great conversation with my high school son about what is happening there and the induced airflow and balancing included in the design.
Looking forward to much use with it.

Finally got to use my R4. Not cheap compared to other propane heaters, but very pleased with it. We have a toy hauler with a patio, and camping out on the Olympic peninsula on a chilly, gray, rainy day, with the rear awning out and sitting here on the patio, only the barcoal section running on low, I am so toasty warm. Far better than any other propane firepit I've ever used.

It’s not going to replace a wood camp fire. But that’s exactly the point. It’s not suppose to. This is for when you roll in to camp late at night and just want to wind down for 1/2 hour with a beer but not be fireless. This will be perfect for the times when I don’t want to, or don’t have the time to make a fire and just want to warm up by the flames for a few minutes before hopping in bed. Combine that with being able to legally use during fire bans, the Howl team have come up with a winner. 12...

We use this machine all the time!! We live in Michigan so we will use it year around. It’s actually the best fire pit I’ve own. We have restaurants so we’re going to order a couple more for outside guests!! Love it
We need a cover if they make one for the bigger units. Mike Naturkas

There's not much to say other than the HOWL speaks for itself. I just went on 4 day hunting trip and the HOWL was our primary heat source, without it we would've left after a night especially with Breck being in a stage 1 fire ban while we were out there. I think we ran the HOWL for 10-12 hours a day and performed exactly as it should.

Just buy it... seriously, this thing is everything everyone is saying it is. It is as hot as a wood fire in the same way a wood fire feels without the smoke and its built like a tank.
I got mine today and fired it up. Absolutley amazed at how hot it got... if I had a need for a second one I wouldnt hesitate to buy another. I could go on and on.... just buy it...
