Ignik FireCan Elite High-Powered Portable Propane FirePit

I recently picked up the Ignik FireCan Elite FirePit, and overall, I’m thrilled with how its changed my camping and overlanding experience. Instead of lugging around wood, axes, and all the mess that comes with a traditional fire, I can just turn a knob and get cozy flames in seconds. That said, there’s one frustration: the propane hose is too short.First ImpressionsSturdy & Compact: For a portable fire pit, it feels rugged without being too heavy. It’s easy to store and transport.Quick Setup: Attaching the hose and igniting the fire pit is straightforward—no fumbling with lighters or kindling. We keep an electric stick light stored inside the can on top of the Ignik firerocks.Performance & FeaturesHeat & Fire Output: The flame is powerful, producing plenty of warmth to keep a group comfortable on cool nights. The fire output is quite impressive for a pit of this size, even on low.Ease of Use: It’s a breeze to turn on, adjust, and shut off—perfect for those who just want to relax around a fire without the prep or cleanup.Clean & Convenient: No more hauling firewood or dealing with ashes. Once you’re done, let it cool, pack it up, and you’re good to go.The Hose IssueShort Length: The included hose is too short for my liking, limiting where I can position the fire pit relative to the propane tank. This can be inconvenient if your setup requires a bit of distance for safety or layout reasons.ProsPowerful Flames: High heat output keeps everyone warm.Compact & Portable: Easy to store in a trunk or garage without taking up too much space.Low Maintenance: No smoke, no ash—just turn it off and let it cool.Quick Ignition & Shutdown: Takes seconds to light or extinguish.ConsShort Propane Hose: May need an extension if you want more flexibility in how and where you place the pit.Fuel Consumption: Higher flame settings can use up propane quickly (though this is expected with a powerful burner). After an extended weekend, propane consumption was noticable, but not abmormal when pairing with a propane camp stove. My family of two can make a 5 gallon tank last about four or five weekends of normal use and keeping the pit on low/med.Final ThoughtsDespite the minor annoyance of the short propane hose, the Ignik FireCan Elite delivers on convenience, heat output, and overall ease of use. If you value hassle-free fires for camping or backyard gatherings—and don’t mind investing in a longer hose if needed—this propane fire pit is a fantastic choice.Overall Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Wow! This is constructed extremely well. Its small size, ease to set up, adjust, and enjoy - makes this very worthwhile. At 10lbs this is the lightest of 3 fire pits by Ignik. This is all stainless construction except for anodized lid. Fit, finish, and operability are excellent.I was just at Flagstaff where several people had these with temps of high 30s-low 40s, it helped keep several people keep warm and provided a wood fire ambiance. I camp a lot and with all the fire restrictions and/nights were the wind is just too much for a wood fire – propane fires are often approved for use. In part due to the cost and my ambivalence towards propane substitutes for a wood fire, the large propane fire pits with a 20lb tank I just kept putting off getting something of this nature. I have now made room for this small fire pit and a 10lb propane tank. I’m sure it will bring many enjoyable evenings and even some warmth when needed. It is costly but far better than anything I could make.

This is a simple, compact and portable fire pit made of high quality materials. Been very happy with it so far, and love to have an instant fire when away from home, on road trips or car camping/overlanding. It’s so quick and easy to pull out and get going, and stores away simply. Add the moon rocks to improve the look and feel of this product.

Quick set up and easy to use. The flame goes about 1 foot on high. Wish would go higher. A 20 pound propane tank will last on high for about 6 hours. Used it on temperatures of about 40 degrees Fahrenheit and the heat from the flames was not really impressive. However, that said if you need a fire for a campfire on a fire ban, it is great. I had a Firecan set up and a wood fire burning at the same time. Most of the group preferred sitting close to the Firecan since no smoke. I would have rated it 5 stars only if the flame was higher. Also wish the propane line was longer. But over all very portable and ease of use.

Received just in time for a 4 day camping trip with friends that would see two days of rain and gusty winds.Used it under a portable canopy with side walls to reduce effect of breezes. Worked really well at half volume on the flame setting. Kept 4 adults comfortable. Its size makes it convenient and safe under a canopy tall enough to stand under. Easy to use right out of the box. Only wish is that IGNIK would provide a longer and better gas line. Instructions called for a four feet separation between the FireCan and the propane tank. That's just barely achieved with the five foot gas line. I will make a 12 foot braided steel line to replace it. Otherwise, found it to be pretty efficient with fuel use. Others in my group had nothing but praise for it.

This box is great when you don’t want to smell like smoke. It packs down small and doesn’t take up much room in the truck. I have had no issues with warping or paint peeling. It still looks brand new after using all summer.

Very good product. Generates a lot of heat

I've been using this on my camping trips. Works great 👍. Love it.The only one negative I wish Co. would include the fire rocks with it.
