I wanted to share a genuinely remarkable experience I had recently, which truly underscores the value of quality tools and efficient service. My Easter dinner plans nearly met with an unforeseen culinary catastrophe! My trusted butane torch, which I rely on for those perfect finishing touches, unexpectedly gave up on me right at a crucial moment. Picture the frantic scene: a meticulously prepared Easter ham awaiting its golden, caramelized crust, and my primary tool for the job rendered useless. To add to the stress, the nearest hardware store is a significant forty-minute journey away, making a quick replacement utterly out of the question. In a moment of sheer desperation, I turned to Amazon, hoping for a miracle. And a miracle arrived in the form of overnight delivery! I placed the order late in the evening, and to my immense relief, the new butane torch was delivered precisely at 7 AM the next morning. My sincere gratitude goes out to the incredibly prompt delivery driver who ensured my holiday meal remained on track. Their dedication truly saved the day. From the instant I unboxed it, I was impressed. This torch connected to my existing butane canister with effortless precision – no fiddling, no leaks, just a perfect, secure fit. Operating it was an absolute dream; the intuitive design allowed me to adjust the flame with incredible accuracy, achieving exactly the intensity I needed for delicate caramelization. Ignition was instant and reliable every single time. The result? My Easter ham developed the most exquisite, uniformly golden, and subtly crispy glaze. It was nothing short of perfection and garnered rave reviews from everyone at the table. What could have been a disastrous culinary setback was transformed into an unqualified triumph, all thanks to this exceptional butane torch.

I have had many of these hand held refillable torches I used for cooking and other smaller projects like thawing frozen pipes, etc. Every one of them had the refill on the bottom of the torch. I never had a single one of these torches where you could refill them without liquid butane blowing all over you and the bottom of torch fill area because the fill inlet never matched the butane cans even with all the misc adapter fittings. I gave up and in the garbage they went. This torch is totally incredible using the camp stove butane cylinders. It fits right down on the can, press in on the torch and twist it about 10 degrees clockwise and it's done (it's going to be tight but you won't break anything). NO BUTANE ALL OVER THE PLACE! Even removing it from the can is simple and easy so I can even store the torch and can separately if I want too, it comes with a neat storage bag to put it in. I have the 8oz. cans but smaller ones are available also. This torch is well made all the way and works great. Take some time to get used to all the different flame adjustments at first. Also, this unit can even be used upside-down also in need be. This thing is so simple to use I'll be buying another one to keep out in my shop too. The trigger pull to gas lighter is great also. 5Star product all the way.

Bought this torch to finish off the sou vide tomahawk steak that was too big for my carbon steel pan. I was worried that it will not be hot enough (as per view comparisons on butane torches vs flame throwers on YouTube), but it turns out just fine for me. Seared the steak for around 3-5 mins on each side and achieved a good result. I use it for a sous vide steak, hence the temperature is enough to finish off the steak, but will definitely be NOT enough to cook a raw steak even if its thinner. As a beginner for using a butane torch, its easy enough to use. The flame it throws is longer then I expect, especially the soft flame mode, which burst significantly longer and less controllable. I set my cabinet on fire for a brief second, luckily my cabinet is material is flame retardant and I suspect it only burned away the oily/dusty/chemically cleaned surface away. Overall, I got what I want with this torch, just use it with enough space plus some extra to be cautious. I will only use the soft flame mode outdoor.

Been using pressure cooker to prepare meals and needed a way to crisp up / brown the skin of chicken. Torch works well with butane canisters with large adjustable flame. Knob on rear adjusts fuel / flame size. Trigger ignites the flame but its not necessary to hold the trigger once lit. When installing align the canister notch with torch tab and twist. There is no click or screwing on... just a friction twist and lock. Tight gas seal easily made. Only a 1/4 turn or less is needed. Easily able to produce a flame 2-3" long. Great addition to my kitchen gadgets. The nozzle get extremely hot (ask me how I know) so keep the torch away from kids and fingers after use. There is a ceramic liner inside the stainless steel torch barrel which I assume is fragile so handle accordingly. Otherwise all other parts are plastic which have a decent quality feel to it.

Works great, easy to attach to gas cylinder. Two flame settings, turbo torch or easy flame.

As a dad who loves spending time in the kitchen—especially when it comes to trying out new recipes or making weekend treats for the family—the Butane Torch Kitchen Blow Lighter has been a fun and surprisingly useful tool. I originally got it for crème brûlée (because yes, I wanted to impress the kids with that caramelized sugar top), but it’s turned into a go-to for a bunch of other things—like searing steaks, toasting marshmallows indoors, and even crisping cheese on nachos. It feels solid in the hand and ignites easily with a single press, which I appreciate when I’ve got little ones running around and dinner halfway done. It’s also got adjustable flame control, so I can keep things safe and precise, especially when I’m torching something delicate. The safety lock is a nice feature, too—adds peace of mind when there are curious little hands in the kitchen. Refilling it with butane is pretty simple once you get the hang of it, and it lasts quite a while between refills. Honestly, it’s one of those “dad gadgets” that makes you feel a little cooler while doing something useful. Definitely worth it if you like to experiment in the kitchen or just want to take your cooking up a notch.

What a bunch of crap. No butane included first of all. My fault for not reading description but when it’s in the photo you assume. I bought butane and it doesn’t work. Tried to return it and they won’t allow returns. Do not buy this!

It broke one day after 14 months.

Easy to use and powerful enough. Really glad I bought it.

We use this at work, and so I got curious and bought one for myself to use at home, and so far, it has worked, and it's not leaking gas even when it's attached to the butane gas.

Good

Very bad quality. Stopped working after a few times of light usage
