I’ve had this little forge for around a year and it has surprised me greatly. No issues so far. I’ve don’t a lot of forging with it for around three hours sometimes. Gets hot fast and works extremely well. Although I haven’t successfully forge welded with it so far, I think it could definitely be done. Even so it will still heat your metal up pretty close to forge welding temperature. Up to a very bright hot orange. Have enjoyed it very much. And probably will upgrade to the two burner soon. It’s still at an affordable price and I would recommend it over this one even if you are just starting out. Mainly just because there is a small price difference between them and with a two burner you have the option to heat up larger areas.
Worked great, i learned how to blacksmith and made about 3k with it, before i upgraded the forge. Im still using the burner from this after countless hours of use..made about 9k off this burner, so far.
Vevor is no longer including refractory cement with their forges. As such, in order to use this forge safely, you need to source the cement elsewhere which drives the total cost a little higher. The product itself is well made, feels solid, and works very well for what it is supposed to do.
This thing is awesome for the price, I have blacksmithed a few items using it and it does exactly what I needed. It is built well but you will need to put your own regulator on it if you need it.
As the owner of Devil n Dove, I am thrilled with the VEVOR Propane Forge Portable Single Burner. This forge has been a game-changer for our tool and knife making projects. Its large capacity allows us to work on bigger pieces, and the single burner provides consistent heat, making our metalworking efficient and precise. The portability is a huge plus, letting us set up wherever we need. If you're into blacksmithing or farrier work, this forge is an excellent choice. Highly recommend for any metalworker or craftsman looking for a reliable and effective forge!
