Some people are happiest tending a small fire. The Mesa XL gives them that ritual with dry hardwood pieces or wood pellets, a fire starter and a long lighter — outdoors, on its stand and on a stable surface that can tolerate the heat.
The verdict
Give it to the careful patio host who has a suitable outdoor surface and room for an attended open flame. It brings close-range atmosphere, not room-heater performance, and the owner still needs to follow the current manual, property rules, local bylaws and fire restrictions.

No wood fire is. Once it reaches a hot secondary burn the smoke drops noticeably; startup, wind and damp fuel still smoke.
Solo Stove presents the Mesa line for toasting s'mores, but it is not a general-purpose grill. Use only the fuel and tools allowed by the current instructions, keep hands and clothing clear of the flame, and supervise children closely.
Solo Stove lists the Mesa XL with stand at 7 inches in diameter, 8.6 inches high and 2.3 pounds. Finish materials and included carry storage can vary, so verify the exact offer rather than relying on the product-family name.
