Recomemndations for a decent garden incinerator

dllive

Hi

I bought a garden incinerator from Aldi. OK, it was cheap and I wasnt expecting it to last many many years, but Ive had perhaps 4 fires in it, and the bottom has fallen out of it and the sides have disintegrated.

Ive only been burning twigs, sticks etc...

Can anyone recomemnd a decent garden incinerator that will last a good long time?

Thanks

I've never had a garden incinerator last more than 18 months, I've bought expensive and cheap ones including a steel drum version. All last about the same so I now buy a cheap one from Lidl and just use for one year

Got one of those steel drum jobbies - Bought late 2019, and it is still going strong.

Hmm, this is an interesting read: https://www.gardentoolbox.co.uk/garden-hand-tools/gardeners-tidying-tools/best-garden-incinerators/

Slightly different approach, but I've got something like this for summer evenings in the garden (and a tripod that allows it to be used as a bbq), but it also works for burning garden waste. Lasted me 4ish years so far.

It's been a while bu I used to have an ordinary galvanised one bought from the garden centre.
Lasted a good 15yrs. Stored under trees.
When the bottom fell out i put a cake grid thing you use for cooling them in the bottom and that kept it going for a few more years.
