We have used one of these for the last few years. It works really well. We get about 3 nights on a 20 LP cylinder. Yes, they use a lot of LP.
We prefer wood but sometimes when there's a burn ban on the only thing they'll let you use is LP. Sometimes (depending on the park) we may not be able to use the LP fire either. It has fooled many people that think it's a "real" campfire (including rangers). On our last trip the neighbors came over to ask how we made a fire that smoked to little.
I have the same one and really enjoy it. We use it camping and at home. Easy to transport, easy to setup, easy to use, easy to put away. I got mine from Amazon for around $65 with prime shipping.
I've spoken with several fire authorities in Colorado and Wyoming and all agree that this is considered an LP gas appliance and is acceptable for use whenever and wherever a propane grill is allowed. The key factors are that it doesn't emit any burning embers and all flame will cease when the fuel is shut off. We've been under near-constant fire restrictions (except for this year!) and I've been able to use it anytime I want.
