Solo Stove Yukon Heat Deflector - Enhance Warmth and Comfort for Your Fire Pit - Durable 304 Stainless Steel - Maximizes Heat Radius - Long-Lasting Camping Essentials, 10 lbs

This works wayyyy better than I thought it would. Deflects the heat much better than not having it. I have two bonfire model solo stoves. One I take camping and the other sits in the center of a permanent brick fire pit next to our pool. When the wind blows the shield really doesn't help. But if there is no wind you can sit back much further and enjoy the heat. Without it you have to sit way to close tho these to feel the heat. Ive used this deflector in both scenarios and it works well. Way to expensive for what it is but it hasn't warped or changed shape at all after about 10 hot as hell fires.

In the winter this has completely hep add some warmth with re directing the smoke. Easy to put on top, does get hot so can’t remove till cooled down but has never been a problem for us. Perfectly fits our solo stove

This item is very very nice. Took a little time to put together and it VERY large but when put on top of my solo stove it worked perfectly. Is deflects the heat out instead of up. Highly recommended.

As with any of the Solo products I've purchased, it's a quality item that's well engineered, effective and expensive. Since it works as advertised and I made the decision to buy it, then it seems that I see the value, but it still seems expensive for a metal disk.I believe once I've had this longer I'll discover a better method for this, but at this point it's a little dangerous. The issue I have is with how the deflector is "installed" when you are using it. When it's cold, it's easy enough to put it on the ledge of the firepit. When you want to add wood or pellets, it's a different story. My opinion is that the smartest way to add wood is to remove the deflector and add the wood or pellets, then replace the deflector. Assuming you use gloves or a pot holder removing it is simple. Replacing it is more of a challenge, particularly if you are using pellets and some of them end up on the ledge. You have to line up the three legs on the ledge with a relatively small margin of error while a fire roars in your face. If you misalign it, or manage to land one of the legs on a couple pellets, the deflector falls off. That's definitely not a good thing. It would be great if there was a heat resistant handle off the side or similar.Most things have drawbacks somewhere, and overall I'm very happy with the performance so I'm very pleased with the purchase.

I would get this again, but it isn't life changing. The legs should fold. That is the biggest complaint. You pay high dollar for this thing and it takes up a lot of space when the stove isn't in use. If the legs folded, you could tuck it behind something in the garage or behind the grill. The legs come off, but they are covered in soot (Which is to be expected), so having to wrestle them off is a dirty job. The heat output is ok and definitely improves things. It is still not a massive change. It is over priced, but it is a nice add on.

Our old fire bowl pit sat low to the ground. We'd feel a lot of heat but smell like smoke at the end of the night. So we bought a Yukon with the heat deflector.The top on our Yukon fire pit stove is much higher than the old fire pit, so we initially didn't really feel the heat down low on our feet or legs while sitting in a chair. Sitting down, the heat tended to be felt above your knees or higher. The heat deflector does exactly what it promises to do, it deflects a lot of heat out and down towards our feet and legs. Now I know why heat deflectors have become all the rage. We couldn't be happier. With the deflector, we get all the heat, but without the smell of smoke.Attaching the legs is not for the weary. Rather than read the instructions, go find a Youtube how to do this. I use a rubber hammer to gently tap the clips into place while it's all on my workbench. I also installed a 3/8" stainless steel eye-bolt, washer and nut through the center hole so I can store it hanging from the rafters in the shed or garage.The deflector gets extremely hot, and the underside gets completely covered with soot. After it cools down, I rinse it off with the hose, wash it down and then dry with a paper towel.

Bought this for my husband to put on the solo stove bonfire that he received for Father's Day. Before using it, your legs would not feel the heat from the fireplace. After using it, whole body is toasty. It was a little tricky to assemble because the clips are unlike anything I've worked with before, but once I figured the first one out the next two went very quickly. It seems very sturdy and we love it.

We’ve had a solo stove for several years and love it, but you definitely find out you have to be pretty close to the pit to enjoy the immense heat the stove puts out. I ordered the heat deflector and there’s definitely a difference in the heat you’re able to feel when sitting around the fire. It was super simple to put together (my 14 year old did it) and sits right on top of the pit. I was worried about being able to add more wood, but the clearance is enough to side new logs in when you need it. I used BBQ gloves to lift off the deflector at the end of the night to extinguish the flame with no problem. Would recommend.
