Overall this product has met my expectations. It is well constructed and ergonomically sound. It works quite well at destroying small emerging weeds on bare ground, gravel and in between bricks. For larger weeds I find pulling is still a better option than the torch. The product is less effective when used in or around flammable ground cover or tender vegetation because of the resulting collateral damage. If you are comparing the torch against the ease and effectiveness of chemical weeding products (Ortho Weed be Gone, etc.) you will be disappointed in this product's relative performance. If you are comparing this product to other "organic" weeding methods (pulling, high concentration vinegar, etc) you will be satisfied with the relative performance.

This flame weeder is well designed. It's light & maneuverable, ignites with one click of the button, and a small canister of propane keeps it going for 'hours'. The flame covers a path about 3" wide, so it goes slowly over large areas, and since one's neck gets stiff after awhile, several minutes at a time is long enough. Safety and applicability issues: flame is extremely hot, can singe shoes or start a groundlevel brush fire~~and applicability: works best on small (1" high), newly emerged weeds (wilts/kills with a brief pass of the flame). Established grass clumps laugh at it, though, and re-sprout within days, even if 'cooked' and blackened. Same with deeper rooted plants (dandelions). For weed control on compacted gravel, in cement cracks, etc., it is a godsend. In Spring, needs to be repeated every few days as new weeds emerge, because it won't be so effective once they've developed deeper roots.

Little did I know how much a middle aged guy needs his own flame thrower, but this Bernzomatic JT850 Trigger Start Outdoor Torch fills the bill. Be certain to get the trigger start version to avoid fiddling with matches when there are rampant weeds attacking your patio, driveway, or sidewalk. The tool makes a satisfying roar when you are roasting weeds AND there is no bending over as with an Oriental, odd-shaped hoe-like instrument scraping out the little devils. I haven't tried it on ice yet, but I'm sure it will do a good job. Beware of using it on asphalt or mulch because your next call may be to the fire department. I have already purchased one for my brother-in-law--a difficult person to buy for--and won't he be surprised when he opens it on Christmas morning. My wife says we can use it for browning creme brulee...we'll see. Joseph G. Hagloch

Steps offered for propane safety
Jun 15, 2011 |Wildfires can spread quickly and destroy or damage homes and property. If a home or business uses propane to generate heat or run appliances, there are a few simple steps one can take to keep the family safe and avoid potential dangers.
—Clear at least a 10-foot area around the propane tank and gas grill of any debris. Remove anything that is combustible or easily ignited, including leaves, brush, vegetation and rags. Make sure the grill and all propane cylinders are at least 10 feet from any structure.
—Never store, place or use a propane cylinder indoors or in an enclosed area such as a basement, garage, shed or tent.
—Create an emergency preparedness plan and review it with everyone in the family. Post a list with contact information for the propane retailer and emergency services along with instructions for turning off propane, electricity and water.
—If a wildfire threatens one’s safety, shut off the gas. Turn off the main gas supply valve on the propane tank, if it is safe to do so. Also turn off the gas supply valves located near individual indoor appliances. If one has a propane fireplace or log set, close any screen, door or damper.

Is it possible to change a gas/propane fireplace over to a wood burning?
Sep 15, 2007 by Boo RadleyI wanted a wood burning fireplace but bought a house with a propane, ornamental one. Can I keep the same mantel and the outer part, or would it be like starting from scatch? I live in North East, Maryland, is it expensive?
the chimney size and type is the determining factor. many prefab gas fireplaces require require little more than what a gas heater would. this would be very dangerous to burn wood in as the fire would probably come out the front after you. the pipe for gas is to small and is not insulated or joined properly for wood burning. you could burn down the house. most material yards have charts to calculate the proper flue size based on firebox width, height and depth. if you have a masonry chimney it can be very expensive to enlarge (read rebuild). metal pipe chimneys are less expensive but can still cost quite a bit. a typical 12" diameter triple wall flue pipe can run between $45.00 and $125.00 per foot. add enclosure and labor. before burning wood it would be a good idea to get a fireplace builder to take a look at what you have. your local material yard can often recommend someone and it should cost little or nothing. well worth it for the peace of mind.
I have a propane gas fireplace., suddenly no matter how I turn it up the flame stays low and never changes?
Feb 07, 633 by Whirlwind123I checked the propane level and that is fine, could it be the regulator on the propane tank?
Well assuming the "flo-valve" is not stripped (you should have noticed this when adjusting), the next thing I would check on is regulator.Actually have had sucess in just taping with cresent wrench as it was stuck.Give it a try !
