When hot air comes out of the nozzle it works great. HOWEVER, it's a crapshoot how long the Electric Weed Burner will give hot air. I used it twice, 30 minutes and 45 minutes, w/cooling down period before turning off. That was all she wrote, it died. The blower still worked, but not the heating element. It works great when the hot air is coming out. The quality has gone way down from 2 years ago. Before they would last about a year. Now, they hardly last to the return period. Read more
I was really surprised how well this works for killing weeds. It's light and easy to use, but you must have an extension cord. One flaw is you can only use it for approximately 30 minutes, then give a cool off period. For the sake of safety I do not use it close to the house, and I pull away landscape fabric. Safety is the reason I chose the heat burner instead of a propane model. Read more

I purchased this product to eliminate small particles in my gravel beds around Flagstone. Even with several minutes of time at the highest setting, I was only able to eliminate some very small weeds and none of the dried particles. Don’t waste your money Read more

I wet the grass around it, held it over the weeds for about 8 seconds with the bell shaped attatchment... the next day they were all dried up. will difinately use this over any chemicals in the yard. the hand held heat gun worked well for some other tasks i had..
