G'day Regan,

Its impossible to say.  Just like any camping gear, or cargo in your car, depends how you've packed it & the road you're driving on.  

G'day David,

Yep, absolutely.  A lot of councils in urban regions require charcoal only in your fire pits, so in my personal experience, it works quite well in fire pits. I'd say you wouldn't have any issues with that.

G'day Jez,

Unfortunately as we don't sell the Oz Brai, we've got no way to verify whether this would work.

 
We'll post this on the page for you in case anyone else has tried this out and wants to reply.

G'day,

The base plate is powder-coated steel, so would benefit from a good rinse off after a beach side camping trip.

G'day Marie,

This will be a question for QLD National Parks, but in general, an open fire refers to any wood-based fuel source. 

G'day Jeff,

No, the Darche Firepits do not come with a hotplate attachment, but you can definitely rest a hotplate on the grill platform without too much trouble.

G'day Peter,

Generally we'd recommend sitting the firepit directly on the ground, but if you wanted to raise it up a little then you could pop it on top of an aluminium slat pac table, you might just end up with a little bit of residual heat transfer to the table.

G'day Jerry,

No, there are no extra leg attachments available for the Darche Firepits at this point in time.

G'day Luke,

Darche manufactures their products in China.

G'day Liam,

It probably depends on the wood from your local servo, but I'd say it can handle around 5-6 logs. If you have a look at the reviews a number of owners have uploaded photos of their firepits in action, and most appear to have quite a bit of wood in theirs.

G'day Bob,

The way that the legs fold means that they pack down about 10cm larger than the unit when it is assembled.

G'day Jim,

The carry bag is made from heavy-duty nylon.

G'day Steve,

Sorry, the Darche Stainless Steel BBQ 450 Firepit doesn't have any rotisserie or bracket attachment kits.

G'day Neil,

If you're wanting to use the Firepit just for a fire then you won't need to pop the grill/grate on top. The Stainless Steel Grill can be used if you're wanting to cook.

G'day Aleks,

The Darche Stainless Steel BBQ 450 Firepit is designed for use as a small comfort fire or cooking fire.  If you stick within the intended use you shouldn't have any issues with distortion, bending or damage. 

G'day Jack,

We don't have any stock to physically measure this for you at the moment, however based on the size of the 310 model I've got here I can confirm that the 45 x 45cm size is the size of the top of the pit.

G'day Trevor,

What a great question! I've had a play around with our floor stock and tried both the 9 qt and 12 qt Camp Ovens which weigh 8.9kg and 15kg respectively.  It seemed to take the weight well and was very stable. I'd be fairly confident that if you added it full of lamb shanks you'd not only end up with a delicious meal but it could take the weight while it cooked!

G'day Brent,

The Darche 450 fire pit is essentially designed for use as a contained comfort fire or for cooking food. Whilst you could technically build a raging fire in it, its best to stick with the intended use.
