1.0 out of 5 stars Not that great, June 7, 2008

This review is from: Mr. Heater All Purpose Propane Torch #MH500PT (Kitchen)

Bought this and returned it the next day. It couldn't keep the flame lit due to the new safety vaulve on the propane tanks...kept fizzling out after a few seconds. The lighter included fell apart after one or two times of trying to light it. The threads on both ends of the hose weren't quite right, and we had a very difficult time getting them onto the torch and the propane tank. It's made in China, so the quality wasn't too surprising.

This review is from: Mr. Heater All Purpose Propane Torch #MH500PT (Kitchen)

This torch kit is not a high quality tool in my opinion. I am rancher and small business owner and do not like to buy tools that do not last.

As a side note, the hose is too short and not designed for long-term use. I used it over 2 seasons a total of 45 minutes and the hose has already failed near the coupler. It gets stiff when the outside air temp is below 40 deg. It should be made like a hydraulic hose but instead is more like a cheap pvc hose.

I paid about $50 for this setup. When the hose failed and I called Mr. Heater, the rep told me that a new hose would run $28 plus $7 shipping!

Would not buy again.

Product works great. You do have to watch how you point the flame. It can be hotter and greater distance then you think. It worked great great cleaning a very long fence (metal) of weeds.
