I have a Sierra cup next to me, and you can see how thin it is even before you take it out of the packaging.

important point

If you look at the bonfire pit from below, you can see that the bottom plate is close to the ground.

In this case, be sure to place a flame retardant sheet under the bonfire pit, as the heat emitted from the bonfire pit may damage the ground.

Also, since ash will fall through the air holes in the bottom plate, laying down a flame retardant sheet will make it easier to clean up the fallen ash.

Features of TABI

This bonfire pit has long been popular among the bonfire pits made by Japanese outdoor brands.

The features of TABI are as follows.

Light and thin.

It is extremely lightweight, weighing only 298g and 478g including accessories.

The total weight of the world-famous lightweight bonfire pit “picogrill 398” is 495g, so it is lighter than that.

Most firewood does not require cutting

Most of the firewood sold at Japanese campsites is about 35cm long.

TABI’s bottom plate is 36cm long, so you can burn firewood without cutting it.

Can also be cooked

TABI comes with a net.

If you install these, you can also cook.

In addition, since TABI has a short distance from the bottom plate to the net, it can transmit enough firepower even with a smoldering flame.

When you’re not cooking, you can remove the grill and it becomes a simple bonfire pit, so it’s cheap to use.
