Lodge 3TP2 Camp Dutch Oven Tripod, 43.5-Inch,Black

This is exactly what I ordered and seems sturdy and that it will work well. It has everything needed to set it over a fire and get cooking, plus a nice carrying case. I had to figure out how to get the rubber stoppers off the screw heads because they required pliers to remove, but that was no problem. The bottoms will need to be kept up (cleaned and oiled) as they have no bases will sink into into the ground a bit- also not a big problem. Excited to get out there and use it.

Very well made! Really needs instructions! I could not figure out how to get the three legs to keep the hook centered. Maybe it's a design flaw. Maybe it's not supposed to center at all, and maybe it doesn't matter. It drove me nuts!

This Lodge tripod arrived quickly and in time for an important cook we had planned for July 4th weekend. I had looked at this and other tripod options for a while and finally pulled the trigger on getting this one. I've been very pleased with its performance thus far. It held my 5/6 quart Dutch oven solidly as I cooked up some Cowboy beans. I was able to adjust the amount of heat needed by easily changing the chain length. The tripod spread out sufficiently to cover my firepit and could have done more or less had the need arrived. I wasn't expecting the carry bag so that was a nice surprise, which will make carting the tripod on camping trips easy and clean. A good purchase so far!

It would be a small fire that would take a long time to heat any pots. If I was buying again I would buy with the poles being at least 12" longer. But they are well made and solid

Searched and searched until I found this product. We have a 36" fire ring (in ground) and really wanted to be able to cook over it as we have a bonfire almost every night in the summer. Issue was finding something that would work with a 36" ring. This product works perfectly! It is an extremely simple design and easy to setup. Legs can be set as far apart as you need. I am unsure how far you could set them apart but there is plenty of room to go larger on this item in case you have a larger fire ring. Craziest part is that I was watching a historical TV show later that night (1800's in Scotland) and I noticed that all of the people were using this exact same design to cook over. We ended up purchasing a 18" grill grate that goes over a traditional BBQ along with some chain and hooks to make this product a lean, mean BBQ machine :) Recommend.

Easy to set up. Great for hanging a medium sized Dutch oven over a small fire.

It seemed wobbly at first, but turned out being quite sturdy. It held a cast iron 12-inch Dutch oven full of chili (pictured). The carrying case was a selling point for me, and I'm glad it came with one. This case allows you to carry it in your car/vehicle without getting soot on everything. The case also helps you keep up with the tripod better; I like that mine was black with a noticeable, bright, yellow zipper. The chain is also sturdy and is a good size for large pots.

I love this thing, it works perfectly and it is ridged like you would expect
