I received my Hekla and tested it out. I was surprised how much heat it puts out and the flame was very controllable. The strange thing was the regulator. As you open it up it gets more powerful and then shuts off. You have to close it and start again. I think it is regulating maximum pressure but the off is about halfway to full open so it can be a little tricky.

Received the lava box quickly and noticed a regulator noise upon firing, sent a quick email and next thing I know a new regulator was at my door. These guys are serious about customer service and a terrific product.

The lavabox is the best box ever!

I need an instruction manual for the bag there’s a lot of Velcro and loops and panels that I know I don’t need but curious to what they would be used for? Thanks.

This thing is so compact that it is much easier to transport than our old propane fire ring yet it still puts out a big flame and lots of heat. I love the stand that gets it up off the ground. And it just looks cool. Very happy I finally bought one.

Great gadget. I’m a firewood guy but that thing is convenient! Instant fire in camps, we even cooked on it once and it works. Hard to beat that you can turn a knob on a chilly morning and have the campfire going. Even the girlfriend approves of the expense :)

The fire pit itself is sweet, especially when there are burn bans in effect. After several uses of the over under thingy I think it could benefit from some re-engineering. If you use it as a stand, the stove doesn’t lock in at all and slides on the very narrow stand. I wind up putting it on perpendicularly, which seems to work a bit better. Love the idea, but with a little tweaking it could be much improved.

I have plenty experience lighting bbqs, legal brush fires, fire pits etc. but this pos blows up even with the gas at just cracked but this stupid thing blows up each time. I’m not an idiot and I followed the instructions to the letter. It literally blew up in my face. This is a terrible design and as this happened in California I am looking at an attorney for the burn I got on my face. My face was more than a foot back from the fire but it burned my face. The bbq lighter I used was lit and was close to the burner ring even though, I sustained burns on my right arm and face. So needless to say this is a 1 star review from someone who has decades of experience with propane and other fuel devices and fires and for this to happen…. Don’t buy this product!!!!!!

Love the Lava Box!!!!
Finally we can have a fire and not worry.
It provided warmth and ambiance-what more can you ask for. We also made burgers on it!!!!
I highly recommend buying one.

We bought one for our son for his bday. He’s going to love it!

Badass little box of flame is what this thing is. Probably the best portable fire pit I have ever been around.

The Over Under Thingy makes the lavabox such a diverse piece of equipment.

Shipment arrived quick and in great shape
I can't wait to use it at the Overland Expo East!

We took our lava box out into the great unknown wilderness of Colorado for a harrowing camping trip, let me tell ya this thing kept our spirits up in the dead cold of night and the 6 foot flames kept the cryptids at bay. Not only is it rugged and awesome it’s also a safety device in the woods, be it signaling the I.S.S. For help or keeping the tommy knockers and Sasquatch out of camp. Buy this box!!!

What ever you want to call it... it works to get your fire box off the ground & can be used as a grill. Very nice construction & built solid. Will last me for years to come. Bought one for me and one for my brother.

Amazing how much flame comes out of this little box!!
