As warmer weather invites us outdoors and we contemplate filling our social calendars, let's pause and take a good, long look out back. Is the yard fit for an evening s'mores sesh with the fam? Summertime barbecues? Alfresco movie nights?

A fire pit can make any patio feel more luxe — and no matter how much space you have, there's always room for one. It enhances the atmosphere and cuts the chill of night to extend your outdoor hangs.

Which is our way of warming up to tell you there's no better time to grab one: Amazon's bestselling fire pit is on sale for $47, and according to thousands of reviewers, it's absolutely worth it.

The 22-inch Kingso Fire Pit boasts a durable, rust-resistant steel frame and a black heat-resistant coating. It's lightweight and portable, which means you can easily move it around your yard or pop it in the trunk for your next beach outing or camping trip. Plus, the spark screen and wood-handled poker ensure that you have control over your flame. And no need for propane. Simply use good ol' firewood for an authentic campfire feel.

Don't let the budget-friendly price fool you: Over 6,500 five-star reviewers vouch for its affordability and quality. "We love this little fire pit!" one happy grandparent shared. "The lightweight portability is ideal for taking camping and using in the yard at home. My two young granddaughters helped assemble; it's that simple!"

"I love this!!" another reviewer raved: My neighbor had a similar fire pit, and I've been jealous for quite some time. We like to cozy up to this on our back patio. You can easily control the amount of heat/fire, which is nice. I suspect you might even be able to roast hot dogs over the fire, but we've only tried our luck with s'mores. I also really appreciate the lid because it discourages my pup from getting too close."

A third chimed in that it's great for gatherings (safe, socially distant and fully vaxed, of course): "My girlfriends and I decided a while back that we’d start having outdoor happy hour on Fridays," she shared. "I recently got my side patio together and looking good, so we really enjoy sitting out there. I thought it would be fun to do s’mores also (plus if anyone brings kids it makes it fun for them). This fire pit was exactly what I was needing. Super easy to assemble. It’s a breeze to clean. I’ve used it about twice a week since receiving it. It’s sturdy and a perfect addition to my patio."
