A versatile and useful piece of kit
I was dubious about buying this particular weed gun due to limited (one) reviews but I was interested in using it for other things so the conversion to heat gun was the decider. Well having had a chance to use it, I can confirm that it works well as a weed gun provided that you use the weed nozzle. Not as hot as my previous gas powered gun but hot enough to burn weeds. It works brilliantly as a barbecue lighter and got my Kamado grill going in a couple of minutes. A useful piece of kit.

Disappointed
Fairly straight forward to put together, but then things get a bit.....underwhelming.Two heat settings, one pointless, and the other mediocre. Lead is too short, you WILL need and extension cord.Ensure weeds are super dry, then just stand there for a couple of minutes with the nozzle over the weed until it starts to burn away.Pros, the weeds have not grown back yet after 2 weeks. Cons, a few minutes of just standing there blasting the weed with the equivalent of a super hot hairdryer, wasting electricity is crazy. Could seriously pulled up even the most stubborn weed in much less time.Motor is reasonably noisy and you’ll stink of smoke afterwards.Variety of nozzles to choose from, but after using the first one, could not get it off again due to heat expansion causing it to be permanently stuck.Only recommend if you want to waste some money on testing out the issues above and like standing on the spot for 30mins to burn 3-4 weeds.

Great item
This product is really versatile. It feels well made and has many uses. I have used it to scorch weeds in the garden which has worked well but I look forward to using it to strip paint off the external windowsills on the front of my house when I get chance to paint them. It can be used with our without the extension pole and the end can rotate to be used like a gun. A longer wire would be ideal but nothing an extension lead won't solve. Recommended.

USED ONCE, NOW BROKEN FOR NO VALID REASON
Absolutely stay well away from this product. What a complete waste of my money. I've gotten one use out of this, and that usage was actually just to test the product out on a couple of growths. A week later I plug it in and it switched on for 1 second then stopped. sometimes it does this again, other times it just simply won't start.STICK TO GAS VERSIONS NOT ELECTRIC WHICH ARE CHEAPLY AND POORLY MADE.

Simple and works.
Seems to work well. Bit slow. Simple to operate. Head difficult to change - just didn't want to come off. Cable not very long.

Meh
Bought to burn weeds, took forever by which time the electricity bill would sky rocket. Probably use it as just a heat gun or get rid.

Greener alternative to weed killer
Where has this been all my life! Makes weeding enjoyable and quite a mindful and relaxing experience! Love the duel uses and so easy to convert to the paint stripper.

Burnt Out
To be fair I've had this product for about 18 months but have only used it a few times. I must admit also that I like the principles and it does seem to work. My grumble is that I've only used it a few times and it burnt out. I think it should have lasted longer so, cannot recommend this particular make / model.
