 best deal around by far!!! August 17, 2009

An excellent deal without question. Great for burning small, confined areas or whole driveways, using the different tips included.I tried to find something comparable locally and quickly learned that was not possible. I ordered this product and have used it many times - try it for lighting a bonfire or a BBQ and you'll see it cannot be beat! very durable and cools quickly, it's a plus for the landowner or homeowner!!

Propane Torch with 2 Extra Nozzle
Great buy for the price if not for the crimped clamp that holds the hose on the handle, and the annoying need to keep relighting. I would have rated it a 4, but it LEAKS Propane when used on a full bottle! Someone is going to get hurt! I noticed this problem on mine before bursting into flames, and promptly replaced the crimp clamp with a real hose clamp. I feel much safer now and it does work OK when the lighter is handy.
 Unfortunately this is Not a Good Product May 27, 2009

I bought this hoping to burn weeds (dandelions mostly) because I won't use chemicals and we had a bumper crop of weeds this spring.
First I tried a regular propane torch, but when you bend the tank over, the liquid goes into the valve and the flame goes out.
So I shopped around and found this item. It looks good, isn't expensive, and comes with 3 nozzles. But it just doesn't work.
First, the hose works with a large tank (think gas BBQ). So you either need to drag the tank or get a dolly. Fortunately I had a dolly. Needless to say, it's a bit clunky to be roaming around the lawn with this contraption, but that seemed a small price to pay for eco-friendly weed control.
When I got it all set, I lit 'r up and was instantly frustrated by the need to get the gas flow just right. Unless I pressed the trigger as gently as possible, the gas came out too forcefully and would blow out the flame.
There is a trigger valve with an adjusting nut and a flow knob on the handle, but they have almost no impact. No matter how much I fiddled with each of them individually or jointly, I couldn't get the combination right. The trigger was too sensitive and the flame always went out. I even adjusted the tank valve to restrict the flow, but the trigger was still too touchy. The slightest movement off the 'magic' position and the flame went right out.
Even when I was able to get it just right, the torch required a fair amount of time (> 30 seconds) over the plant to burn it. If you get too close, out goes the flame again.
I didn't have any more time and I had to give up on it. I do plan to get back to it at some point and see if I can take the trigger and handle apart to make the trigger work more effectively. We'll see if that ever happens.
The only positive is that this wasn't too expensive at about $22 plus shipping. Save your money. You have been warned.
The only other option I found were large ice and tar melting devices at Home Depot/Lowes which went for about $59. I didn't want to spend that much, and they only come with a giant 2" nozzle which seemed like it would leave a rather large burnt patch around each weed.
Great Item May 26, 2009

Works great, fast shipping, and cheap! The only thing I had to fiddle with the valve a little, but no biggy! I use it for starting my fire in my BBQ pit, works great!
