How to read a Showdown Score™

The only score that counts how often a product breaks, not just how owners feel about it.

  • Three parts add up to the score: what owners rate it, how often it fails them, and whether a credentialed tester backed it.
  • Bands: Exceptional 8.5 and up, Excellent 7.5, Very good 6.5, Good 5.5, Fair 4, Poor below 4. Every score is dated.
  • Price, the warranty and what a link pays us stay out of it.

✓ Safety: no active recall — No active CPSC recall for Solo Stove, of any product (checked 2026-09-07). Wood-burning — not the ethanol/liquid-fuel "flame-jetting" hazard behind the 2025–26 tabletop fire-pit recalls. Solo Stove's manual forbids use under any overhead structure and says the included stand is not sufficient on decking. Burn on a non-combustible surface and never leave a fire unattended.
