Butane Torch Kitchen Blow Torch - Chef Cooking Torch Lighter Adjustable Flame With Safety Lock Culinary Torch For Creme Brulee, Baking, BBQ Butane Gas Not Included

I bought one for my wife to make it easier for her to light our airtight wood stove. It worked so well that I ordered another one for my shop. Easy to use, easily adjustable flame, inexpensive, reasonably well made, and it puts out some serious heat when needed. The translation of the instructions is hilarious.

For years I used matches and various "stick lighters". What a pain because stick lighters only work sporadically and even when they do work the flame is pathetic. This torch is just that - a torch! The flame lights every time and just plain roars. I bought my first one two years ago and then just bought this second unit for storing in the garage for when I want to start a bonfire or the grill. Both units work wonderfully for every task that I've had for them. No more matches or an endless supply of those da__ed stick lighters.

This torch is easy to used, to stored, and you can’t beat the price. Make sure the torch should be rotated and locked in place before using. I was a little confused at first to get the torch locked in but then realized I had to twist it tightly. After that, it’ll aid in the cooking process easily.

Wonderful product to use around the kitchen and outside setting up the coals for the grill. The easy use and control is what was important when choosing this product and very happy with the results when finished and looking forward to other usefulness when getting better control and confidence with the torch. I will no doubt be getting another one for camping.

Update to previous positive review. It was NOT user error... it’s just junk and really unsafe! I used it for brief periods for my crafting and got used to its unpredictability but yesterday, as I was using it, like other reviewers experienced, it started leaking gas around the handle. Flames went all around the canister and down my arm. I was able to extinguish the flames but the gas kept leaking. I thought I got it to stop but in the morning, the entire can of butane had leaked out in my house. I opened my windows so we wouldn’t be effected, but that is SO dangerous!!! I will look for a safer torch for my projects. DONT buy this!! The torch was as pictured and has done its job well. I use it for crafting to warm epoxy to remove bubbles. It has been a little bit difficult to control the amount of flame that comes out as it will be “calm” and then all of a sudden shoot massive flame.... but maybe that’s user error? Maybe I’m moving it too quickly and shaking the gas up too much? I’m not certain. I’m hoping to get used to it quickly! I’ve never used one this size before (previously used a smaller kitchen torch but went through butane way too fast).

It’s a decent product. The Pros: It’s good in that I can just use all the butan bottles I have around the house and I don’t have to break out my professional torch. It’s just the right size for daily use. Cons: It works ok if a little worrisome. The lock has no indication that it’s got a good seal, so I am always unsure if it’s truly locked/sealed and not leaking. The flame it channels has a tendency to drift. Hard to describe, more that it feels like it burns back towards your hand and the bottle. So along with not being sure of seal, I always have to mind the exact angle to minimize that drift.

I like this design better than the previous product I bought. Uonmay torches has this twist-on feather that is super easy to assemble and fits most matching butane gas (the big, fat cylinder one) in the markets. The good thing is you can it in any direction, even upside-down once the gas is clasped into position and preheated for two minutes. However, the other black brand I bought is tip-insertion and it creates a big hassle for installation. It requires a long-tip design for the butane gas. I bought the long-tip and it did not match. As I tried to insert the tips, the hissing sound escaped from the gas container. They do not have a matched butane gas like this Ws-516C. The tip design has a variable lengths, so it adds difficulty to find the right match. I would suggest to by East-to-assemble Uonmay Master Torches for beginners.

Not much else to say, other than it works as intended. If you need a torch adapter for compatible butane canisters, this should do the job just fine. I use it with the coleman butane canister (not the green bottles for the camp cookers, but the actual torch butane) and it works just fine. I will say that the flame is not as pinpointed as the indoor cooking torches that you fill directly with butane though. I would say this one is better suited for lighting fires or anywhere you need a lot of quick heat, but not accurate precision. I would not use this to light a cigar and probably wouldn't use to toast food - it has too much oomph for that even on lower settings. The flame on this is pretty powerful and long when you crank up the gas and when the gas is low, it's more of a lighter fire than a torch fire.
