Even as the weather gets colder this fall, you don’t have to abandon your backyard just yet. If you want to squeeze in a few more weeks of outdoor relaxation, a fire pit is a great way to stay cozy while enjoying the fall weather.

Whether you’re swapping stories or roasting marshmallows, fire pits are a convenient way to get a little taste of the great outdoors right in your backyard. Plus, with different types of pits — including smokeless ones (which really means not as smoky) — there’s a pit perfect for every space. Below, check out some of our favorite fire pits so you can spend the autumn nights out under the stars.

Smokeless fire pits

This large fire pit from Solo Stove has a 27-inch diameter and promises a low-smoke fire, thanks to its 360-degree Airflow Design. Plus, fires in the Solo Stove burn super hot so your fuel turns into a fine ash, meaning super-easy cleanup. Solo Stove has two other smaller fire pits available as well as tons of accessories, including a pit cover, stands and even color packs to turn your fire green and blue.

This smokeless fire pit has a similar construction as the Solo Stove, in which the design of the bowl creates an airflow that shoots the smoke straight up instead of into your face.
