    The smoke happens when you are not using it properly. First you need to get the stove to the working temperature. Then the second combustion happens, only then add the cooking pot. Keep the fire going by adding the firewood slowly. It will smoke very little or not at all. I made a short video about it, it can be found on my channel.

    I have seen a couple of reviews on this where they pretty much completely cured the smoke problem by slightly pulling open the ash pan at the bottom. Apparently this is essential. I have seen it in use smoke-free.

    I'd have to disagree here with you and others that say/suggest etc. that it doesn't work. I saw your vid, went and had a look at one of these and tested it out. There is a trick, well not even a trick. Unfortunately, it's not written in the manual-LOL, there is no manual- it is after all just a wood stove. Anyway one must use the lower ash tray as the lower air vent. it works because there is a large flange on the tray, so it can still catch ash and provide a variable gap for air intake. Result, ZERO smoke with top hole completely occluded and complete combustion. Try it out, you might think differently about it.

    I bought one and yes, that´s the first thing I notice, no top pan/pot support! On a positive note though, I have a Petromax FT1 Dutch oven, which is the smallest one they make, and If you buy the FT1 with feet, those feet fit right in the top feed hole but not all the way in so you´re left with a 3-4cm. gap! Perfect for air flow 😎
