The EcoSmart STIX is a fireplace you want to consider for the upcoming summer camp season. This one-of-a-kind fireplace is both eco-friendly and very stylish. The EcoSmart STIX is fueled by bioethanol, which is a renewable liquid fuel produced from agricultural by-products.

The EcoSmart STIX outdoor fireplace gets its inspiration from a traditional campfire. Instead of wooden logs it is crafted out of steel sticks that house the AB3 burner, which can hold a flame for over eight hours.

The EcoSmart STIX outdoor fireplace is very easy to set up and move about without requiring much force or strength. The modern-looking design combined with its eco-friend attributes make it the perfect source for cozy warmth on those chilly camping nights.
