Want patio warmth but dont have room for a large outdoor heater on your precious patio space? The new Solo Stove Mesa heat deflector is here to transform your Solo Stove Mesa (aka your mini fire pit) into the ultimate mini outdoor heater.
The Mesa heat deflector doubles the heating radius of your Mesa to ensure that everyone is cozy and warm around the outdoor dining table. It merges functionality and style to create the ideal patio centerpiece. (If you don’t have the Mesa yet and you’re curious, scope out my full Mesa review.)
Heres what you need to know about the all-new Mesa heat deflector.
What is the Solo Stove Mesa heat deflector?
The Mesa heat deflector is a must-have Solo Stove accessory for your existing Mesa or Mesa XL tabletop fire pit. It sits directly on top of your Mesa to push heat outward and increase its heating radius by up to 2 feet. Logs and/or pellets can be added while the heat deflector is in place to keep the fire going throughout the night.
Constructed from Solo Stoves famous 304 stainless steel, the Mesa heat deflector is built to last a just as long as your other Solo Stove gear for a lifetime of warm moments alongside your fire pit.

You need this heat deflector that extends the warming radius of your Solo Stove Mesa or Mesa XL.
Solo Stove Mesa Heat Deflector Features
The round, angled shape of the Mesa heat deflector redirects warm air out while the perforated grates in the center allow the fire to breathe. The deflector sits high enough above the Mesa that you can add fuel via any of the three easy-access windows without removing the deflector. It weighs less than one pound and comes with a carrying bag. Its only 5 inches tall and has a diameter of less than 8 inches, so it takes up virtually no extra space on top of your Mesa.
How We Tested It
The Solo Stove Mesa heat deflector arrived in a small box with the new metallic Mesa fire pit. (Yes, I couldnt help myself and had to get my hands on one of the latest metallic colors from Solo Stove.) Both the deflector and the Mesa are incredibly lightweight and require little to no assembly to setup.
The Mesa is good to go out of the box once the base is popped on the bottom, and the Mesa heat deflector takes just a couple of minutes to snap into place. All you have to do is slide three legs onto the included base ring and secure them to the underside of the deflector. After that, your heat deflector is ready to sit on top of your Mesa fire pit. It’s recommended that you start a fire using pellets or mini logs and allow the fire to burn for five to 10 minutes before placing the heat deflector on top. Youll want to use high-heat gloves or tools to gently place the deflectors base ring inside the outer lip of the Mesa.
Once your fire is roaring and the deflector is placed on top of the Mesa, you should notice heat radiating from the fire pit. With secure and spaced posts, you can add additional fuel while the heat deflector is in place and enjoy the warmth and coziness of your Mesa for as long as you desire.
I was surprised by the amount of heat the Mesa put out with the added heat deflector. My partner and I gathered around the fire pit on a chilly evening and noticed significant warmth radiating from it while it sat in between us (about 1.5 feet away from each of us). Plus, the new metallic finish added a festive holiday hue and a dose of cheer to our patio. I can’t wait to use it when we have family and friends over this holiday season.
