Do smokeless fire pits give off enough heat?

This is the most common complaint in the data. Multiple high-trust community threads note the airflow design sends heat straight up rather than radiating outward, so you feel less warmth on your legs and feet than with a traditional fire. Larger pits (Yukon, Breeo X24, TIKI) and accessories like heat-reflecting surrounds help, but heat output is the category's main trade-off.
