It works
12 kg
The product works. I was able to melt some copper down however by the second use my Crucible was broken Flames were coming out of the furnace pieces where the two gas lines go in. I tried getting help with the product and they were not much help wrote them telling them i just wanted to be refunded and didnt hear anything after that.

Seems to be a good setup but I received a cracked crucible
12 kg
Easy to assemble and get rolling, but as seen in my pictures my 14kg crucible has a crack covering a decent portion of the base/side. I’m super disappointed because i was ready to start smelting tonight but now I don’t have a trustworthy crucible. Otherwise, it’s great thus far. You give me a crucible that’s not broken my review goes straight to 5 stars!

Good overall, need to be careful of lid placement
12 kg
Overall it works great and is a solid buy for the price. You need to be careful with the lid placement though. It got so hot one time when I didn't place the lid on quite right and now the frame is deformed. I need to adjust the insulation and fix the deformation before I use it again.

Don't know about it
12 kg
So before you guys even purchase this acknowledge the fact that you have to go out of your way get the refactoring cement and you have to apply this to that ceramic mat. Also I'm not sure it is actually made for the temperatures it can actually reach. The reason I say this is the top start to melt and turn into a bowl versus a lid. The overall device is all right but they used some s***** I mean crappy metal for the vessel. I may actually have to send this thing back because I don't want the vessel to up and fail on me when I've got gas flowing. Not to mention two lines generally means you may want to get a larger tank.

Decent burner, thin shell, only an unhardened layer of some version of ceramic wool for insulation. My home built unit cost less and is better built than this. Not sure I trust it to melt brass.

Lame product
12 kg
Ordered this to replace my Vevor 6kg furnace. When it got here I realized is was the same size furnace with a bigger crucible and less insulation. The only differences were that it was stainless instead of plain steel and had two small burners instead of one big one. The worst part was that I argued with VEVOR for over a week about taking it back even though I was paying for shipping. The finally gave me $100.00 to keep it and I sold it on FB to recover the rest.

Ok but not great
12 kg
It’s really easy to use but the length and temperature is not accurate. I must have had it running with both propane furnaces open for around an hour and it never got hot enough to melt aluminum. I eventually just turned it off because I didn’t want to blow through a perfectly good propane tank. I tried again on another day for 30 minutes and still only turned the aluminum to ash. Disappointed. Melts pewter super fast but so does a heat gun lol.
