What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this torch for eliminating weeds without chemicals, highlighting its effectiveness in driveway cracks and sidewalks while eliminating bending and spraying. Many appreciate the lightweight, ergonomic design and push-button ignition, noting it's simple to operate and versatile for grills, campfires, and moss removal. However, a notable group reports the igniter fails after limited use, with flames extinguishing when the torch heats up and requiring cooling to relight. Some mention weak power output and short fuel runtime. Despite these issues, most customers consider it highly effective for small-scale weed control.

Would Not Recommendpiece of aluminum pipe with a valve for $50, what a joke. Bernzomatic got me twice, igniter fails after about 20 lights. Total garbage, worth about $5, not $50.
Weed and grass pulverizer, grill fire starter
Would RecommendThis product is fantastic. I use the green coleman camping bottles with it, ery lightweight and works magnificently for killing unwanted vegetation. I use it on the sidewalk and driveway joints to kill the vegetation. I also use it to edge my driveway and get the grass off and out of my fence. I use on green alive vegetation. ⚠️ WARNING ! If you use it on dead vegetation you will start a fire 🔥 💯. Its also great to start a charcoal 🔥 fire in the grill. All the above with no chemicals, no we...

Still thinking about it.
Would RecommendReasonably inexpensive. Easy to use. Time will tell if it's very effective. I used 1 can of propane for about 250 square feet. Weeds started popping up within a day, but I have a lot of weeds in my gravel driveway. Maybe it will take several tries.

Love it
Its so controllable, therefore I have a solid sense of confidence I will operator safely. The larger units scare me. Even though I consider this dangerous if not mindfully operated, the products attributes are predictable, containable and manageable.

Works great with some caveats
Would RecommendI bought this torch based on a strong positive wirecutter review. I used it mainly to control weeds in a dry creek bed. It's a great alternative to hand-pulling or chemical control. As other reviewers noted, the ignition is now intermittent and I'm having to start with a lighter instead. The flame was also going out when the propane was low, but that seems fine with a new tank.

GREAT weed killer
Would RecommendDefinitely kills weeds at the root, and fun to do. Time consuming and uses a lot of fuel so it's expensive compared to RoundUp.

Will mot light using the ignitor.
Would Not RecommendUsed itonce for under 10 minutes to get a feel of it since it was my first time using a torch. I got my tasks prepared two days later and it will not light. I changes out the tank to a brand new one and still nothing. I specifically purchased this type to keep from having to light with a lighter/match. I'll return it hopefully with no pro lem since I now don't have a receipt.
