There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Now its a month later and it takes 20 to 30 clicks to get it to light. This thing is about worthless!!
OK, huge change of opinion! I could not fathom how so many reviews loved this and I did not. So I decided to return it and Amazon offered to send a replacement. Seemed prudent to try this and apparently I got a bad one. This can happen in any product line, no matter how good they generally are. Now my new one lights the first or second time every time. I am happy, and Amazon was super helpful in fixing the problem. Thanks Amazon and thanks to the Bernzomatic company.
First purchase, the Porter Cable PC1500HG electric heat gun, but found it lacking for finishing meat cooked Sous Vide. At the time of purchase, I was not aware of the Fan Nozzle. However, it is a great heat gun. Cost, $28.30
Next purchase, the popular Benzomatic TS8000 torch and the companion Searzall Torch Attachment.
The torch is a great replacement to my old propane torch, particularly the instant on/off, and the Searzall adds functionality as shown in numerous Youtube videos. Cost, $40 torch, $75 Searzall, total $114.
Then I discovered the Porter Cable Fan Nozzle that fits the Porter Cable PC1500HG heat gun, making it almost as efficient as the Searzall and Torch for searing meat. AND I can use the Porter Cable heat gun indoors with the meat on a cheap, steel “jellyroll” pan, which I usually place on my gas range just in case some hot air strays beyond the edges of the pan. Put the nozzle a fraction of an inch above the meat, and it sears rather quickly. Cost, $11.44.
Yes! I paid 10x the cost of the nozzle for the Searzall and Torch! I will sometimes use the Searzall, but only when I have enough searing to justify taking the task outdoors. Most of the time, the time for moving everything outside, getting the torch from the garage, returning the torch, and moving back indoors makes it just as efficient to use the electric heat gun indoors, perhaps more so.
All work great products, but sometimes I think that had I known then what I know now, I could have saved $114. However, the Searzall is hotter than the torch and covers a larger area.

Contacted warranty service since it was under 1 year, never got a reply back, what a terrible service.
Today, the PLASTIC failed right below the trigger. This sent a fireball through the fail and engulfed my entire hand and half my arm.
I have 2nd degree burns which are being monitored by the wonderful emergency room doctors and nurses.
A 4” blister coupled with searing nerve pain...
Does it sear...it does. Was it great for caramelizing? It was...
Did it fail and send a fireball all the way up to my mid-forearm. It did. As a bonus, I have burns and blisters...and all it seered was my hand and arm.
I used this often, I loved it, but all failure points are made of PLASTIC leaving a propane bomb 0 inches from my body.
An unimaginable night watching my poor wife freeze and breakdown while I was literally on fire.
Do better!
My recommendation: DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT UNLESS THE QUALITY IS IMPROVED. Or else, put your doctor and lawyer on speed dial.

Item bought via Amazon from USA. It arrived very quickly and has been used. It feels sturdy and well built. Overall it works well but, I wanted it to use in confined areas, which meant turning it upside down. It did not work fully upside down, as stated in blurb, but kept flaming out. I might have to buy a hose and bottle to stop this. Also, as expected, it has a USA thread fitting which therefore needs an EU adaptor which is easy to get, (CGA600 thread to EU 7/16" thread).
This is something I use for work, it's not a toy. I told them no thanks, and went and bought a new one on amazon only because there's no others like it. I would have bought some other brand if I could find it but don't have the time to search..
Over all
. Not impressed with their customer service. They're rude and offensive. It's an ok product, but Bernzomatic aren't very professional in my opinion.
