Customer Reviews for VEVOR Propane Melting Furnace Kit 8KG/18lbs with Crucible Tongs Metal Smelting

Very easy to use. I have melter copper brass and aluminum. It would be a 5 star but the furnace only came with the ceramic insulation. I bout hellcote 3000 to finish it off.

Works great for my application. I can smelt the gold that I had previously melted in my electric furnace. You can melt copper, brass, aluminum, it will get really hot fast.

This item does work as intended. I have an issue with the tongs, since they aren't the right type to hold the crucible and pour. The firebrick cracked with the first use, so that could've been better. The insulation in the lid falls off every time I open the lid, but that's not that major an issue...more a simple annoyance. Buy better gloves, guys...these transfer heat straight through and will burn the bugger out of you. I'm leaving 4 stars because the item works tremendously well. Replace the tongs with a decent set that can be used to hold the crucible properly to pour (they're not hard to make) and replace the gloves and you'll be good to go.

Great value for money, works well. Need bigger mould supplied with it. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
