Works great as a fire pit and also incinerator. We’ve loaned ours out to our accountant who uses it to burn dated private tax information. What a great product…we’ve had ours for 5 years with no problems.

I ordered the 42″ on a Tuesday and it arrived on Wednesday. No problem putting it together. I have already burned a couple times and it worked wonderfully. very little ash escapes. No fear of a fire starting.
Kartie J (verified owner) –
Last year I spent about $100 on a leaf burner along with several pieces of metal to contain the hot ash. It was an expensive joke. After trying for several hours to dispose of one tarp full of leaves I had at least as much ash as as you see in the foreground of my picture. I also had a burned hand, stunk of smoke, had to chase hot ashes with the hose, and had a nasty mess to clean up. This year is already a joy with my new Burn Right incinerator. The ashes you see are from the Burn Right after four snugglypacked loads of leaves. No stench, no burns, no flying sparks, and easy ash disposal.
Vic A. Birchwood, WI (Lake Home Owner) (verified owner) –
We have a cottage in Northern Wisconsin that is used all spring, summer and fall. We have used a burning pit and an iron barrel to dispose of our burnable items. Neither were satisfactory. The pit kept filling and flying, and the barrel rusted and deteriorated, and it was all a mess to clean up. During the spring of 2002, we put up a Hi-Temp Mini-Incinerator and our problems were solved. The intensity of the heat burns thoroughly, the stainless steel does not rust. The flaming particles do not fly everywhere and it is simple to clean. We would (and have) recommended it to everyone.
Christin M. Eagle River, WI (Home Owner) (verified owner) –
Living in Wisconsin’s “north woods” I was very hesitant to have a burning barrel in my backyard for fear of spreading fire to the surrounding habitat. After seeing this product at a sport show I purchased one for my myself. I am truly satisfied at how well this unit contains the fire and at how completely the items burn. It really is an incinerator. Great product.
Corky S. Ontario, Canada (Fly In Business) (verified owner) –
My wife and I have a house in the bush in Northern Wisconsin and a fly-in fishing business in Northern Ontario. We have burning barrels at both locations and she is always worried about starting a fire. We purchased 2 Hi-temp Mini-Incinerators and I used one of them this past weekend. Amazing how your design allows the material to burn at such a terrific high temperature and it’s gone in minutes. Can’t wait to show it to my friends in Ontario.

I was so impressed watching the Hi-Temp Mini-Incinerator in action at the annual Kenora District Camp Owners Associations’ (KDCA) meeting. It easily incinerated all of our burnable materials from the party very quickly in a safe, clean efficient manner. Sure looks like a winner to me!
Robert S. Fairbanks, AK (Fairbanks Forestry Department) (verified owner) –
Fairbanks Forestry tested the Burn Right Products Mini-Incinerator and it performed like they claimed. We burned six telephone books and many out-dated burn permit books on top of some paper waste and the books were 95% plus consumed. The incinerator also worked well with other heavier materials like wood. With a bottom attached and the lid on, the mini-incinerator meets the burn barrel requirements for the Alaska Division of Forestry. I would recommend this product to anyone who regularly disposes paper waste.
Mark W. Reeseville, WI (Engineering Company) (verified owner) –
The burn barrel has, without a doubt, cut the time I have spent burning material by a factor of 10. It is vastly more efficient than using 55 gallon drums or garbage cans as burn barrels. I have been using it now for two years and it is well worth the money. What took me (literally) 5 to 6 hours to burn, including adding kerosene to get all the papers burned, I can do in 30 minutes without adding anything. In fact, during a stiff breeze, I had trouble keeping up with it.
Mary Jane B. Waukesha, WI (Home Owner) (verified owner) –
After over half a century of burning trash on the ground or in a burn barrel, always slow and tedious. I am delighted to be able to burn so quickly and completely in my Hi-temp mini-incinerator. In three years it has required cleaning barely once a year, which is accomplished with little effort. Truly amazing!! It’s surely one of my wisest investments.

We bought our first Hi-Temp Mini-Incinerator (model L-XL-SS100) at the DU Great Outdoor Festival back in August of 2002 and have used it several times a week ever since and it has held up very well all these years. Clean, efficient and a real time saver when it comes to disposing of burnable waste.

I just thought I should add my two cents regarding the Model S-M-SS100 I purchased from you. I really love the thing. Middle of winter I had a party, set up chairs around the unit and got it going. It was well below freezing and I had all the guys kicking back in chairs talking and enjoying themselves not even noticing the cold. The heat this thing throws well exceeds any fire pit I’ve ever seen. Beyond the obvious things like burning yard debris, or documents the unit is just fun: a better idea than anything out there. And clean up is a breeze? You are too good to me.I just thought I should add my two cents regarding the Model S-M-SS100 I purchased from you. I really love the thing.

A friend, in the San Juan Islands, ordered one of your burn barrels and I tried it out. My major problem is burning up innumerable magazines and catalogs that do poorly in 55 gallon drums. I was impressed with how well your burn barrel handled these materials without my having to tear them apart page by page to dispose of them.

Having spent 12 years in the solid fuel industry with Blaze King Products, I knew as soon as I saw the design of the 2242-SS100 that this baby would work. WOW! I consider it my #1 purchase for 2010. Not only will it burn virtually any yard waste you can feed it, once the fire is established, it burns almost as fast as you can move the material. It will literally reduce 5 yards of material into 5 gallons of fine ash. I chose the 2242-SS100 because we have 5 acres of mixed vegetation. It definitely burns clean and fast.Having spent 12 years in the solid fuel industry with Blaze King Products, I knew as soon as I saw the design of the 2242-SS100 that this baby would work. WOW!

That ‘nip in the air’ in your lead sentence is a bit hard to find today. 5:00 PM temperature is 110 degrees, no rain for months, and the entire East Texas area is under a `burn ban’ – minimum fine is $500.00.The two burn barrels I bought are both doing great, although not used recently. Combustion is so complete that I found it necessary to empty the ash build up only about every 3 months. You have a great product. Cheers

I simply must pass along my total satisfaction with your 42″ incinerator. It works incredibly effectively and safely, especially for damp leaves and pine straw. We have a water front home on Lake Gaston NC in a very wooded, heavily tree covered lot. The dead fall and post-storm blow down of limbs require frequent use of a burn pile when weather conditions permit safe an open fire in one big open spot. But the Accumulation of multiple seasons of leaves, twigs, and pine straw forms a mat that does not decompose and creates a snake habitat. A lawn mower or leaf vac wont lift it to mulch it. This stuff just doesn’t burn well either– that is until I used your incinerator. I can easily move the burnright about my property to reduce the distance I need to haul the debris and have safe fires in many spots. The amounts of ash remaining after a day of burning was incredibly small. It also consumed my old records too voluminous to shred a few pages at a time. I wished I had it when I moved in. What a great product!

We purchased the extra large burn barrel to use burning our confidential documents and mail we used to shred. We loaded the burner up with a large garbage bag full of paper. Lit the paper with matches on four sides. It burned down to nothing but fine ash within an hour. Very little smoke. My son-in-law was skeptical it would burn without using some type of accelerant. He was impressed, as were we all. Seeing is believing, this thing works just like the videos show. No poking with a stick, very little to no smoke, complete burn down to ashes. Our neighbor uses a 55 gallon drum with holes poked in in to burn. It takes hours and he has to keep poking it with a stick. It smokes to high heaven and doesn’t burn completely to ashes. Hot sparks fly out the top and into the air. Not so with the burn right. The spark arrestor lid keeps the hot stuff where it belongs, inside the incinerator! Received my extra large 2242 burn barrel yesterday put together today easily and burned for 3 hours with no problems. We live in a heavily wooded area in Pennsylvania and have been clearing our acre for some years and needed to deal with the piles of debris collecting at the back of our yard. This product is excellent and exceeded all expectations. It is the safest and neighbor friendly way to burn.I would highly recommend this product to anyone.

Hi,First off, after the year or so we had your product, we really value our big burn barrel. It consumes almost everything and leaves a small amount of ash residue. We also use it to burn sensitive documents instead of shredding. Much better than an open fire, burn pit, or 55 gal drum with holes. We’ve burned in high winds (not recommended ) and never had a problem.But we did have a fire get out of control in our rural NC home in a subdivision. We were raking leaves & pine straw, blow down limbs, and dropped branches off our 3/4 acre wooded lot and burning them in our burn right products barrel. I left on an errand and my wife continued the fall clean up burning by adding to the fire. She went to the front lawn with the lawn mower to suck up more leaves off the grass. When she returned with the bag if leaves she found that a spark or ember (probably when the lid was removed to add more yard debris) floated off and had started the leaves on fire which spread toward the house– an area more than she felt comfortable by spraying with the garden hose. She called 911. The local VFD responded, as did the sheriff and anNC dept of natural resources ranger. They saw the covered burn rite barrel, a bare dirt perimeter raked 10′ from the barrel, and the hose. No problem, no citation, no fine. They deemed it was a responsible burn. The VFD foamed the burning area, but left the fire burning in the barrel. After all , the covered burning barrel wasn’t a problem. It was just a freak accident started because we kept lifting the lid and adding to the fire rather than burning in batches until gone.Thank you for for such a fine product, which saved us from a cash fine.

We bought this incinerator about 10 years ago and have used it to burn trash, yard waste, and cardboard over and over again. It still works great. I’ve saved a lot of money and hassle by not buying used oil barrels and having to haul them, dispose the old one and cut the top out of the new one. This is one of the best purchases I have ever made.
Bob (verified owner) –
This certainly beats using a rusted-out old oil drum–it works well and all the air slots give you a good, hot, fast burn with little smoke and little danger of sparks or embers floating around. It’s also sturdy and looks great–it reminds me of something from the space program!I had no trouble at all assembling it using a power screwdriver and it went much more quickly than I imagined it would. Just remember not to tighten the screws until it’s fully assembledI didn’t realize it came with the ash-catcher–so that was a bonus. Overall, the only thing that could be done to improve this is lower the price, but good quality always costs more. The combination of high heat and exposure to the elements will destroy lesser quality metal products in a short time, but this thing should last forever.

I have used your incinerator about four years and I want to tell you what a remarkable product you have. I am 75 years old and it was my job in our large farm family to burn the papers every morning before school in a 55gal. drum. What a stinky mess that was because I had to watch the fire burn down because the orchard was always catching on fire and the I had to put it out. Now I light it, throw the cover on and go back in the house.I have your incinerator sitting on a limestone drive with about four feet clean area around it and I have never had a problem and it burns so fast that it never smells.

Hello Burn Right Products :I bought one of your barrels a few years back and it is wonderful ~ can’tthank you enough. I see on the web site that you have an affiliate relationship with othersellers. My question is about drop shipping relationships. Have you ever engagedwith 3rd party sellers in that way ? I’ve noticed a square barrel that is being sold on Amazon ~ reviews are not so nice for ‘putting it together’ however, some very crazy prices of this product.I think your product is far superior frankly.
Growly B (verified owner) –
I seldom write reviews, but, I purchased the extra large model and it works wonderfully. I read some of the other reviews stating the difficulty of assembly… I had no trouble at all. A few of the screws seem to not tap the hole properly, but this was not an issue for me, they still tightened up just fine. Having the right tool for job certainly helps. I used a 10v Bosch pistol grip impact driver with an 8mm magnetic hex bit. This allows solid pressure being applied to the insertion of the screws, and no slipping. It is also easier to not over tighten and strip the screws by “feathering” the trigger. I assembled the entire unit in 25 minutes.

I took a bit of time off this afternoon to assemble and test the new Mini Incinerator…..Outstanding, reasonably sturdy piece of equipment…..I do not know what other folks were complaining about regarding the assembly……Instructions were fine and a small impact driver made short order of the process…..30 minutes tops……..(And the screws provided with the unit were actually better than the high quality pointed ones I purchased as recommended in some of the reviews because the threads were finer on what came with the unit and seemed to snug down more tightly with the impact driver……)Rolled the unit out to the pasture between two large brush piles…….Incinerated four large trash bags of packed confidential papers (very difficult to burn) and about ½ of two brush piles (one pile 20 x 20 by 4 feet of brush and one pile 10 x 10 by 2 feet of leaves and packed scrub of two years) in about two hours…….Did have to use my electric chainsaw to cut the larger branches in smaller pieces to fit in the unit but no big issue…..The final ashes in the incinerator from the burn appears to be approximately ¼ of the height of the unit…..Unit burns material very hot and fairly clean (approximately ¼ of the smoke and ash I would get when trying to burn the open brush pile)…..…..4 inch diameter x 2 feet branches seem to burn thoroughly in about 10 minutes…….However the unit is absolutely fine to simply walk up to it every 4-5 minutes and keep feeding new materials to burn…….(I burned the material with the lid off once I saw how simple and safe it is to keep adding burn materials to the unit)……….Very outstanding when finished……Just put the lid on and walk away with no concerns………This is a very fine, safe unit to use…..No open flames to get away from you and no fuel required to add to get the material to burn…..A fairly expensive unit and am rating this a 4 at this time…..I have no complaints whatever about the quality, assembly and the safe use of this unit…..I will use this at least 10-12 times over the next year and will change the rating to 5+ if the unit stands up as well after a year as other users claim (which I suspect it will because of the apparent high quality stainless apparently used for the unit)…..

I recently purchased the extra large model burn barrel. The assembly was easy and the instructions were very helpful, however you should read thoroughly. Use a drill with a torque setting that doesn’t overtorque the screws. If you don’t have a cordless drill with adjustable torque buy one or borrow one and your experience will be well worth it. Loaded the barrel the first time and all that was left was powder. If you’re a veteran don’t forget to ask for the veteran’s discount. Ron will get a check out to you promptly. Thanks for your help with my purchase, Ron and keep up the great work on your products.Thanks Bill PrivottCurrituck, NC

Burn Right’s Hi-Temp Mini-Incinerator:Good quality, easy to assemble, and sturdy. The cap is easy to mount due to three brackets mounted on top of the burner. The complete ring installed on the bottom of the barrel makes it very sturdy. The barrel is strengthened by two angle bars inside near the bottom. Overall, this is the best burn barrel I’ve bought out of my three purchases.DR Power burn cage with hinges:My old square Burn Cage served me five years. Over time, warped sides and a bent top plate made it hard to load the materials. The four feet mounted on the bottom of the barrel made it very unstable. The material was thin and made it hard to empty. I would never buy another square burner like this one! The Burn Right’s round design allows for more space to burn materials and an overall better, more efficient burn.

I’m a retired form the army as a Master Sergeant and I would like everyone to know how well my burn barrel from Burn Right Products works and that it’s truly a great product. I retired in 2005 and moved to my family’s ranch in California to help out. Up till then they had been using a 55 gallon drum to burn yard trash and other things not appropriate for the dumpster. I ordered the large burn barrel from Burn Right and it has worked flawlessly since then. Hardly any smoke, never a spark out side the barrel and it’s as solid as the day it was delivered. Great product and I highly recommend it.

I have had my Burn right burn barrel for several weeks now. It is obviously very high quality construction and is very solid once put together. We put it to use right away with a backlog of boxes and also papers that we didn’t want to burn incompletely in a regular 55 gallon drum burn barrel. I have to say that it was well worth the money I paid for it. With all of the air circulation it lit easily and burned completely leaving nothing but fine ash at the bottom. There were no partially burned papers floating off in the wind.
Bill (verified owner) –
I have had my Burn Right for about 4 years now and it still looks and works like brand new. I love how clean it burns with little to no smoke and it burns so hot that it leaves very little ashes to clean up. I also love how fast it burns but sometimes it makes it hard for me to keep up with it. I love using this all year around but use it the most in the fall when I do more yard work. I cant remember life before my Burn Right and cant imaginelife without it.

I just wanted to send you a note saying what a great product you guys have. I used to use 50 gallon barrels for burn barrels. They always lasted a couple of years as I burn a lot of everything. Some 15 years ago I found burn right products on the internet. I ordered one of the extra large burn barrels (incinerator) as I thought it would last longer, burn more complete and be safer to use. I also ordered a cover handle and an ash catcher. It has far exceeded my expectations. If you burn things and don’t have a burn right barrel/incinerator you are missing out.I have used it several times a week since I got it. I burn paper and woodin it. I empty it a couple of times a month which is very easy with theash catcher in place. I make sure the ashes are completely cool and justput the ash in the trash. It would go good on the garden alsoIt doesn’t look new, but it is still working like new. I have had toreplace the angle grates a couple of times as they don’t last as long as the barrel itself. Not a big issue as Burn Right Products is easy to order from and has great customer support. Everything else is solid and looks like it will work for years.

During March 2010 I purchased a Burn Right Incinerator (Part No. 2242-SS100) and Ash Catcher (Part No. 22-AC) for my two year old house. For some time prior to the purchase, I knew I wanted a device to burn paper and light cardboard for convenience and, also, to relieve the burden they put on my weekly trash collection. Additionally, I wanted to switch from time consuming paper shredding to paper burning of personal files and records that were no longer required. I initially considered using the traditional modified 55-gallon oil drum, however, I did not know where to purchase one and I did not have a way to transport it. A complete drum also requires extensive modification (via hammer and chisel), has no side air intake (without additional modification) and is subject to corrosion and structural breakdown after a few years use. There were none of these issues with the Burn Right items: they were delivered to my house, they were clean, they had the required design features and they were corrosionresistant.My first task was to clear a large area in my backyard and install a level foundation for the Ash Catcher and Incinerator. I dug a few inches into the top soil and placed a leveled, matching, double layer of 18”x18”x2” concretepatio blocks, four on the top (in a square) and four on the bottom (also in a square) for a total of eight blocks. Leveling sand, purchased with the blocks, was used to properly orientate the doubly stacked blocks. Next, I assembled the Incinerator in my garage and, after completion, carried it and the Ash Catcher to the backyard for placement on the block foundation. The Ash Catcher (23.5”x23.5”) fit nicely on the 36”X36” block foundation; I then placed the Incinerator on top of the Ash Catcher and addedits Cover. Finally, I placed four small patio blocks, each shaped like a sector of an annulus, around the Incinerator’s Base Ring every 90-degrees to anchor and stabilize it.I restrict burning to dry, unstacked paper and light cardboard, mostly unneeded mail items, obsolete personal files, and paper plates and napkins. These items burn almost completely in the Incinerator, leaving only a few inchesof ash on the Ash Catcher per year. Thus, I found cleaning the Incinerator just once per year (usually during the summer) is sufficient to keep the system operating properly and efficiently. The purchased system required no further modifications on my partand it requires very little maintenance. Additionally, except for a light black oxide coating on the stainless steel, the Burn Right items still look like new. That’s about all one can ask for in a product

We love our incinerator especially living in Colorado where wildfires are very much a concern. We recently burned the remainder of our kitchen tear out lumber, sheetrock, and other items in no time at all and with very little smoke. We did not even get a visit from the local fire department as does happen when the neighbors smell smoke.

I live in rural West Virginia and have used this product for several years. Very happy with it as it reduces the amount of trips to the dump. I read through all of the comments and didn’t see any discussion of what I’m about to bring up. I live on top of a hill and occasionally we get some fairly strong gusts of wind. I had to add some heavy duty tent spikes to keep the burn barrel from blowing over. That fixed the problem. Several times after a storm I’ve had to go searching for the burner’s lid. Depending on how the wind is blowing it apparently can lift up and take off like a giant Frisbee. That and because it is round it can wind up rolling like a hub cap if it lands on its edge. This morning I found the lid about a 150′ from the burner. I just outfitted it with a bungee cord to keep it from showing up on someone’s radar anytime in the future. These are not complaints just observations for others to be aware of. Easily fixed. This is a great burner and I highly recommend it.I burn garden trimmings, pine limbs and household paper in my new, “burn tube”.It is especially appreciated on Christmas day. It handles all the packaging quit well.Thanks for such an awesome product!!!Will attach a couple photos of our first use. Ms. Tommye is lighting the first limbs and later we add the leaves. Really impressive how the limbs/leaves were quickly burned. I am going to have to elevate the base of the incinerator off the ground to see if I can limit the heat impact on the grass. I had cement blocks under the base, but they were much hotter than I thought they would be when burn was complete. We are very pleased with the first use.

Dear Sirs,I purchased a Burnright Incinerator several years ago to use burning general yard waste such as limbs and branches and leaves as well as general household waste that can be burned such as documents with our name and account numbers that we NEVER toss in the trash that goes to a landfill somewhere.The product is fantastic! No longer do I have to stir and re-burn because everything did not burn, especially documents and paper. The incinerator burns everything completely and cleanly without smoldering and smoking for hours or days. I purchased the top that serves as a spark arrestor so I don’t have to worry about large pieces of smoldering paper or leaves blowing out and setting the woods or grass on fire.I was particularly attracted to your product primarily for three reasons; It is made entirely of Stainless Steel so it will not rust away near the bottom like a burn barrel does, it is made in the USA, and the design allows combustion air to enter from bottom to top thus allowing complete incineration instead of having a growing mass of wet unburned material that slowly accumulates from the bottom and ultimately rusts out the container.I have dealt with the company 2 years after the sale when I needed to replace the two cross members that cross near the bottom of the incinerator to keep the debris up off the ground and allow combustion air to enter from the bottom as well as the sides to insure complete combustion. I explained my problem; the gentleman actually listened to what I had to say and sent me the replacement parts free of charge. They even covered shipping!The incinerator is worth every penny I paid for it, their customer service after the sale is top notch and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good long term solution, it may seem a little pricey initially but when you weigh it against the longevity of the product and it is quite economical.

This is a lot to pay for a burn barrel. But it performs as expected and assembled easily contrary to other reviews. The fasteners were of good quality and the instructions were concise.

Our ship came in and with it out incinerator in our crate. We put it together this afternoon and tried it out. The way the parts go together is brilliant. We loaded it up with a bag of fresh trash and then put in a bunch of wet half burned stuff out of the bottom of our trash pit on top. We still had flames almost as high as those in the picture on your website even with all the wet stuff in there. And there wasn’t much left volume wise when I came in the house. The instructions were clear enough but the engineering student who is our intern this summer and I had two observations on the instructions. The first is that if you have us start putting the curved pieces together while they are upside down you save turning the unit over once. The second is that you have to try by trial and error to know if the little pieces that hold the top on go on the inside or the outside. Hard to see from the pictures and the written instructions don’t say. Anyhow, that is feedback from someone who has never seen one before. Even without the instructions, with a little bit of futzing you can figure it out because the assembly is so logical. Thanks for a great product. I think we are going to need to be saving up for a second one for at the yard where the shop and guesthouse are located. I also want to try it on the litter that is considerable on the side of the road. We usually have a problem with what to do with it after it is picked up. Thanks for the extra hardware bag. We didn’t need it but was nice to have it because I can’t tell you how many times we have had something that lacked a bolt or small piece and it was a month or two before we could get them in here and get whatever it was working.

Ron, just a note to say the veteran discount check came in yesterday’s mail. I thought I would attach a couple photos of our first use of the incinerator.Ms. Tommye (wife) and I had some limbs over the yard from some recent thunderstorm winds as well as some magnolia tree leaves that were the initial test of the incinerator. Will attach a couple photos of our first use. Ms. Tommye is lighting the first limbs and later we add the leaves. Really impressive how the limbs/leaves were quickly burned. I am going to have to elevate the base of the incinerator off the ground to see if I can limit the heat impact on the grass. I had cement blocks under the base, but they were much hotter than I thought they would be when burn was complete. We are very pleased with the first use

I was given one of your incinerators several years ago as a birthday gift from my daughter.She told me that she did not think it was a good idea for her mother to be using burn barrels.The barrels would constantly “burn up” and have to be replaced. No more!!I burn garden trimmings, pine limbs and household paper in my new, “burn tube”.It is especially appreciated on Christmas day. It handles all the packaging quit well.Thanks for such an awesome product!!!Will attach a couple photos of our first use. Ms. Tommye is lighting the first limbs and later we add the leaves.

We have owned a Burn Right burn barrel for at least 15 years! We have used the barrel to burn all of our yard waste including large tree trunks. We have found the Burn Right burn barrel to be the most effective burning and it lasts forever! We burn almost every day and it never fails to do an amazing job.We had used modified barrels (we drilled holes in the barrels). The barrels never lasted more than a year or two then rusted or bent to be unusable.I truly cannot be more satisfied with a product than Burn Right. It is well made in the USA, lasts a very long time and is the most effective burning barrel available based on our experience.

We purchased your incinerator because of the large volume of paper materials that typically go into the dumpster. As a civil engineer, I understand the landfill space that is saved due to use of an incinerator, and think that more municipalities should incinerate their garbage, as natural gas is abundant and reasonably priced. By separating our burnables from our regular trash, we make one trip to the landfill per year, versus sending a full dumpster per month to the landfill. Plus, we are saving money as the landfill fee is $5/year, when hauling 6 large plastic Brute garbage cans full of non-burnable trash per year. We have had one of your large incinerators for 8 years, and it is starting to deteriorate due to the very hot temps that the garbage burns at, so we bought another one. Very happy with the product.

These stainless steel mini incinerators are fantastic! I bought my first one seven or eight years ago, but have just reordered the 42 inch incinerator because the original got damaged when a 150 year old pine tree fell on it during Hurricane Michael. I used to burn on the ground and had to put up with an inefficient process, a lot of smoke and clean up afterwards. The Burn Right incinerator burns paper and yard debris cleanly, and completely, and comes with a lid to contain any sparks and wind-born ash. And unlike burn barrels, it will not rust. This is the perfect solution for help with my post hurricane clean up. I highly recommend this incinerator.
Robert (verified owner) –
It is in excellent shape after many hours of incineration. We use the incinerator for burning paper products primarily along with downed limbs and other small wood products. The incinerator does not show any deterioration you would expect after frequent use for 8 years. We are pleased that the incinerator produces very little smoke and that is important as we have neighbors near by. Prior to the incinerator, we used 50 gallon barrels that produced lots of smoke and possible toxic matter. Additionally, the barrels had to be replaced annually and are not cheap. We live in the Piney Woods area of East Texas and we are also concerned about sparks being emitted and causing the nearby woods to catch fire and the major reason we changed to the incinerator. Thankfully the incinerator produces few if any sparks or burning debris and is safe to use!I expect that we will be able to continue use of the mini-incinerator for many more years. The material used in its construction do not rust and are of excellent quality. We have several neighbors express interest in purchasing their own mini-incinerators. I highly recommend others to purchase the mini-incinerator as it is well worth the buy.

Being dark, I looked forward to assembling and fire it up today.Slept in and forgot about it until I went out the door this morning and my mood went from “ehh” to “yea” when my eyes fixed on the BOX!Assembly was easy enough, maybe a little over an hour.Loaded that baby up and WOW!!Within half an hour everything “disappeared!The residue was minimal.I am so looking forward to many years of service with this exceptional product.

It works like a charm. Burns everything that’s burnable in less then 10 minutes. Basically it is the best device for burning paper and other burnable items that I have ever seen or used. It leaves very little ash because it burns so hot and so thoroughly. After 2 months I still haven’t removed the ashes and they are not even up to the bottom of the cross bars. I have included some pictures of a dear who even thought the Hi-Temp Mini-Incinerator was great, Enjoy!

I reside on a two acre lot in Brookfield, WI. The location is heavily wooded and would obviously create a lot of yard waste.

Geo B. Richfield, WI. (Mini Farmer) (verified owner) –
We have been burning combustible materials in the town of Richfield since 1954 and have burned in everything you can think of, from a stone lined pit to a 55 gallon drum; even a woven wire enclosure and one built of cement blocks. Not until we started using a Mini-Incinerator a few years ago, have we had the mess and frustration of burning combustible materials put behind us. With the Mini-Incinerator, engineered the way it is, the combustion is much more complete; it can be charged easily (the large volume of it) and it can be emptied readily (not much left because it burns so efficiently), and they last (don’t burn out like wire enclosures or the old 55 gallon drums). Our children live close by and they too enjoy the fruits of good engineering when it come to burning combustible materials. Wouldn’t be without one!

I’ve attached a photo of my Burn Right incinerator in use. The device has been a Godsend for us after the local city dump stopped accepting household trash and the only trash collection company stopped accepting new customers in our rural area. Due to an extended drought in this area, we have had an almost continuous outdoor burn ban for most of this winter, eliminating the possibility of open burning of trash. A check, however, with my County Commissioner and precinct constable showed that the Burn Right incinerator is legal for use, despite the burn ban.The device burns hot and efficiently with little smoke, while leaving very little residue. A typical burn takes only about 15 minutes and is easier than rolling a large trash bin more than 100 yards to the road for weekly pickups. The city dump does accept burn residue but the volume of the residue is so small I only accumulate enough to fill less than one small trash bin per month. I had been taking an average of ten bags of trash to the dump every two weeks while paying a fee of about $2.00 per bag. As a result, I expect the device to pay for itself in less than a year.Thanks for a great product!I’ve attached a photo of my Burn Right incinerator in use.

I found this incinerator on the internet when I was looking for a better way to burn trash, I found that it does everything the company claims. I’ve watched as the material burns and, although flames do come out, with minute pieces of ash, there are no flowing embers or big pieces of ash that escape. Household trash and yard farm trash burn fast and safely, with little or no smoke.

I purchased my Burn Right Incinerator almost two years ago. We have used it several hundred times. Texas is burning up and we have had burn bans for many months. I invited an enforcement officer from the Texas Forest Service to see my Burn Right Incinerator. He took a look and then did some research. The result was approval to use my Burn Right Incinerator even during burn bans as long as I followed these rules:1. 20 foot plus perimeter around the appliance.2. Use the Burn Right Incinerator in calm conditions. If it is windy or even breezy it should not be used.3. Keep an eye on the Burn Right when it is in use.This one of the smartest purchases we have made.

I have burned paper trash for as long as I can remember. I have used burnbarrels, fire pits, old refrigerators, chimneys and about anything elseyou can think of. I finally got fed up with ash everywhere, half burnedpaper, and a smudgeey fire that lasted for days. I bought the 42” Burn Rightunit but was still skeptical. Now my fires last only a few minutes and the ash is pretty well contained inside the unit. In addition, the ash is so fine and completely burnt, the ashes from a family of four for a monthsworth of trash barely fill a five pound coffee can. My city slicker relatives are all now buying Burn Right units because they are clean and “green”. Great Unit, and it arrived in only a few days. Plus I got a veterans discount and free shipping.

I would like to share with you what a difference your mini incinerator madefor the American Legion Post 757 Flag Retirement Ceremony this year. Lastyear we used just large steel barrels. The smoke we generated was terribleand there was a lot of residue left in the barrels after the flags wereburned. The barrels were so hot for a long while and we had to leave themwhere they stood until the next day.This year we used the mini incinerator we got from you. After muchdiscussion, I was overruled in following your explicit instructions not toadd flags to the flames after the fire was lit. We still generated a goodamount of smoke, but not as much as last year. The fire was intensely hotand quickly reduced the flags to very little ash. We were pleasantlysurprised by how quickly the incinerator cooled off and we were able totake it back to our Post the same day. I would definitely recommend yourproduct to anyone looking for an efficient and user friendly incinerator.Thank you for informing us how to correctly attach the lid clips. We willreverse them for use at our next Flag Retirement Ceremony.

The county I live in doesn’t allow burn barrels but having pine needles that blanket the ground after every storm is endless. I burn a full barrel every 30 to 40 minutes without much smoke if the needles ignite from the top. If the pile starts from the previous fires ash I get more smoke until the needles get going. Our barrel is 3 years old and discolored. I bring the barrel in at night so it doesn’t disappear. This purchase is the best way to get rid of the endless needle fallout. I see my neighbors burn piles on the ground that smoke out the neighborhood but not me. I highly recommend purchasing the largest you can afford, it ends the worry of catching the forest on fire.

I bought this for my husband when he retired in January 2015.We had been away from our home in West Virginia for three years, and I knew reclaiming the yard would be a giant task. Getting the Burn Rite Burn Barrel was one of the best decisions I made. It burns hotter and cleaner than the homemade barrels I’ve seen, and it just eats through yard waste like sticks and tree trimmings. Now, for my husband…he had recently retired from his position as a Marine Transportation professor at the United States Merchant Marine Academy. One of his favorite courses to teachwas Marine Firefighitng. You can see he has his turnout coat on, and if you look very closely you might be able to tell the garden hose nozzle is a baled design like goes on a fire hose. He’s “boundary cooling” the ground around the barrel, for extra safety. A bit different than the live fire marine training he used to do, but he IS retired now. He LOVES this burnbarrel!

I needed a burn barrel that worked and was safe to use where I live which is in the middle of the American Legion State Forest. As I researched, I came across the Burn Right incinerator, I was going to attempt to build my own after watching a couple videos. However after studying your design I decided to purchase the Large size. It is expensive BUT it is made of stainless steel and to my great satisfaction it performs perfectly. When the fire goes out there is nothing left but ash. Roll the barrel away,rake away the ashes, roll the barrel back onto it’s spot and you’re ready to fire up again. I’ll admit the price was a concern but as they say ‘You get what you pay for”. And, I did. You can’t build a better one. Or find better customer service.

We have had our Burn Right Burn Barrel since 2011. My wife had been pushing for a traditional burn barrel for a while but I was hesitant. I didn’t like how they looked or the fact that they would only last a year or two before falling apart. We found Burn Right in an internet search and immediately knew this was what we had been waiting for. The burning capability of the barrel is unmatched. The air flow allows for cleaner and quicker starting and burning. And as you can see from the picture, it’s attractive too. I don’t know what we would do without it. We burn weeklyyear round which cuts way down on the trash we are putting in a land fill. If, for some crazy reason, the stainless steel in this product would ever deteriorate, we wouldn’t hesitate to buy a new one but I don’t anticipate that happening.

It is easy to light and It burns hot and fast so I save time. I can load more than in my old barrel and it burns everything. I am even able to burn old files and documents. I have had it for 18 months. It stays outside with the rain and sun but it doesn’t fall apart or rust.

I read the comments about assembly. I didn’t have a cordless drill with a clutch, so I put in all the screws by hand. There were about twice as many as I needed that came with the unit. Yes, I did strip a few, but I put nuts on them and tightened them down. Time consuming, but not difficult. I used the barrel once so far, to burn a lot of yard waste. Worked great. Easy to clean up the ashes. Looking forward to using this burner for a long time. My old steel barrels kept rusting out.

Due to so many people having their accounts hacked we decided to burn all mail that we dispose of rather than throw it into the trash where it could be pilfered. Allowing criminals to access your name and other information to set up false accounts. We have been very pleased with our burn device and feel more secure knowing our personal information is safe.

For us, buying a Burn Right Burn Barrel has been one of those few items that we have purchased that has far exceeded our expectations. We absolutely feel like we made the right decision and would buy it again.My husband thought I was crazy spending so much on a burn barrel. It didn’t take him long to admit it was a great investment, and show it off to friends.We used to replace a 55 gallon drum burn barrel every couple years. They just didn’t last, they created a lot of smoke, and never completely burned everything. With the Burn Right Burn Barrel everything is burned cleanly with very little ash left over.We have been using our Burn Right Burn Barrel every couple weeks since 2010. It’s holding up amazingly well, and we don’t see any sign of deterioration.If we ever move from our property, our Burn Right Burn Barrel is most definitely coming with us.We relocate our Burn Right Burn Barrel in the spring and fall to different nearby locations on our properly. It’s easily moved by sliding it onto a tarp and dragging it to its new location.The only issue we have had, which has been no big deal is we have lost a couple screws from it being moved around.We love our Burn Right Burn Barrel. You will too!

Thank you. My ‘Burn Right’ 55 gallon barrel is still doing super work. I watch it, but any escape is just small ash that breaks up and never had a flame when outside the barrel.

I purchased the largest burn barrel you make 4-5 years ago for my weekend property. It was easy to assemble and has served us well. And we have used it steadily primarily for burnable trash and the mountains of pinecones which we rake up so they don’t tear up our mower blades. We can burn 55 gallons of pinecones in 10 minutes with a shot glass full of charcoal lighter. We had a grass fire started by a mower clutch last year and Florida Forestry was so curious about out burn barrel they asked me to demonstrate it and they were amazed at how well it contains all embers and sparks and the speed and completeness of the burn. Recently we moved the unit to repair an underground water pipe and one of my boys lost the handle used to pick up the lid, and you kindly offered to mail me one, thank you.

I neglected to enter this in my review which is below. In Florida its illegal to burn outside in most places, and there is a myriad of scummy burn companies who charge big bucks to burn old business records, usually by the pound. I take my records up to my ranch property and burn them for free in my burn rite, it will completely destroy two bankers boxes of paper in about 15 minutes, AMAZING. All for the cost of a match and a shot glass full of BBQ lighter. Best product I ever owned. Will definitely replace it when its finally used up if ever… the way its built, it will outlive me.

I have had the Extra large burn barrel for over 10 years and have no problems with it. I am getting ready to buy a second one for my mother.

I’m the burner in the family, so it took a little convincing to get the hubby to agree to this purchase. We went with the largest unit….if you’re gonna go…GO BIG! Needless to stay, he was absolutely amazed when he saw it in action (so was I, but I acted as if I knew how great it was all along)! Anyway, fast forward to a little over a year later, and here I am, buying a replacement spark arrester….he ran over it with the tractor!

Howdy Ron,Thank you for returning my call today. I enjoyed talking with you, and getting tips on proper performance of my new Burn Right burn cage. I look forward to the easier disposal of the yearly storm blow down clean up.If the Military discount offer is still available I would like to request it if possible. I thank you for your consideration of the Men, and Women of the Armed Forces, and the First responder cadre. I wish to thank you for manufacturing, and making available a High Quality American made product to us. Thank you Ron.

Good morning Ronald,I meant to email you sooner, but life caught up with me and I have been busy as heck. Thanks for the quick mail out of my burn barrel. I work out of town through the week and I had called my wife to tell her to be expecting it, that the website said around twelve days after you place your order it should arrive, she informs me it’s already there. Well like a kid at Christmas I was ready to play with it. It took about three weeks before I could honestly use it, because the stuff I had to burn was wet. But I finally got to use it last weekend and that thing was everything you said it would be. I have several piles of stuff I’m trying to burn and it burns it faster than I can get the stuff cut down to size. Thanks Sir for a great American made product. Thank you for your military service to this country as well. Have a great Labor Day weekend.

It has made a difference in how much we can get done around our yard. We have approximately 45 mostly oak trees in our backyard and this thing makes short work of all those leaves! Before we would make 6 foot diameter piles of leaves and burn them but it was a pain in the ass because they would end up just smoldering and we could never burn all of them in one day and then end up bagging up 40+ plus bags which cost out the corn hole for bags and ended up taking up my whole weekend and then some when i couldn’t get help from the boys or the wife! But not anymore! I go through all those leaves and looking for more lol.P.S. I did have a problem with two screws but swapped them out with two others in the bag as it came with extras and those tightened up without a problem. Happy Incinerating!

For years I traveled 25 + miles to buy old used metal barrels with who knows what still in the bottom of them. Then I had to chisel the metal top off , leaving unsafe jagged edges to reach over each time I used it, not to mention paying someone to haul it for me. This incinerator will definitely last a lifetime. It burns cardboard and paper to a very fine ash. This will keep a lot of refuse out of the landfill, making the environment cleaner.

I have had an incinerator since 2006 and just replaced it in 2017 only because a tree fell on it during a storm. This is one of the best purchases ever made as the documents and sticks burn up so fast with hardly no smoke and no embers. Thanks

I have not been sorry. Initially I thought the price was high but when amortized over a dozen years it seems like a good investment considering how much we utilize it. We live in a semi rural area and it is great to be able to torch off anything and everything in the barrel with minimum fuss and absolute safety. The unit has taken everything I could throw at it in the form of yard waste, tree limbs, confidential paperwork, you name it. I like the fact that the burn is super fast and complete right down to minimal ash without the usual lingering burn barrel smells and smoke, and I know my neighbors appreciate this as well. I am willing to bet they are not even aware that I am burning. I would not hesitate to recommend this product. I’m certain one of my kids will be using it 30 years from now, as there is nothing to wear out or burn out on the unit. I like the fact that the newer ones have a handle to deal with the maneuvering of the spark arrestor

I really like that yours is made here in the USA. You had good reviews. Just wish you gave a senior discount. We are on fixed incomes and your product is pricey. Maybe something to consider in the future.

We purchased a Thermal Shredder from Burn Right Products in 2007 after a city ordinance banning open pit burning. Our little incinerator has stayed out in the weather since then because we burn year round. It is perfect for burning small limbs, junk mail and boxes from Christmas.In the winter we sit around it and enjoy the fire without all the ash and smoke since it burns so clean. If you have a large yard filled with Pecan trees and Pines this is a must have. One of the smartest purchases we’ve made and would do it again. But I think our little work horse won’t be replaced anytime soon. It even survived Hurricane Michael.

I have owned a 42” Burnright Stainless Steel Incinerator for over 10 years. With the exception of one of my workers backing over it a few years ago, it is still in great shape as you can see from the attached picture. For years I usedold barrels to burn rubbish and debris from my property. As always, they did not last long and they did not do a good job of burning the waste. I came across an advertisement regarding this Burnright Product. Since its purchase, I have never been disappointed with its efficiency to totally and safely burn materials it is designed to incinerate. I highly recommend this product to land and business owners as well as contractors.

I purchased a large incinerator when we moved from the big city to our country ranch about a year and a half ago. Regular trash pickup is not available here, so we recycle, compost and burn. The incinerator works perfectly. Burns at high temperature, no ember escape, minimal ash. It’s easy to clean and load. This was a great purchase. Looks like it will last forever. Thanks

My name is EthelSeveral years ago I purchased the large round Burn-Right SS Incinerator. I just loved it… Built a little home for it with stacked concrete blocks and used it many years with no problems at all. Loved the way it did a fast quick job of all the “burnables” on my farm.In April of 2018, I (and many others) lost our farm homes, outbuildings, etc. in a fast moving prairie fire. It was not a small fire. It started about 10 miles away from me and the intense and variable winds left all of us wondering if we were going to be next to lose our homes and farms. When it was all over, Southeast Colorado (where I live) lost over 38,000 acres, it skipped the state line and moved into Southwest Kansas and they lost homes and farmground over 17,000 acres. It also burned a few thousand acres of northern Oklahoma.We received help from many fire departments (mostly volunteer) and other states joined in with our Colorado firefighters – Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, etc. One of our local firefighters contacted me a week or so later and told me that they had clocked the winds at 77 mph when it raced through my 320 acre farmstead. No stopping a fire like that. When everything was over, we were looking for anything salvageable. Almost everything was destroyed, but my BurnRight incinerator made it through just fine. We found everything except for the lid. That is why I am writing. Do you possibly sell replacement lids?? We are still hoping we can find it, but with the winds blowing so bad during the fire, it could be anywhere in a 50 mi. radius…. I have lost my home and have had to move to town (no incinerators allowed), but my son and his wife are thrilled to inherit the incinerator, and are hoping to be able to replace just the lid.

I bought the pyro cage it warped so bad. This is a whole lot better. More money but you get what you pay for.

The unit assembled as the instruction called for with no problems. A 5/16” powered driver worked just great and the hardware machine screws worked good and there were plenty of extras in the package. Incinerator is working fine and burns items quickly and fast.

This is the 2nd Burn Barrel I have bought in a year. I have used all types, most have been square and they warped the first time used. my Burn Barrel’s have never warped and they burned the trash to a fine ash. As I have said before these are the Best of the Best Thanks much DBWoody
