No good
No good, tried so many times, contacted support, cant melt copper. Does not get hot enough.
The replaced the valve, but still no luck. Tried positioning the bowl, no luck. Wasted hours on it.

Hope you get your product
This is the most disappointing purchase I have made, yes I made a mistake with the address. It’s a family members address it was not delivered to them. Actually I have not been told where it was delivered, although it still says it’s been redirected? When I found out my mistake with the address I contacted the courier, the item was less that 20 k from me they said no problem but we have to ok thru sender that was all I heard.
I was only offered half of what the item was worth and the courier hasn’t responded to my emails so where am I at! I’m going thru PayPal luck for me.
If you buy from vevor hope they use a real courier

My regulator hose was collapsed
My regulator hose was collapsed. I could not get my furnace started. I need you to send me another hose.

Buy a different model
It’s eh. You can only run one burner (preferably the top one) as the bottom one will heat the top one enough to melt the rubber hose and start a fire at the connection. It does still melt pretty well but not being able to use both really ups the amount of time it takes to hit high enough temps to really melt aluminum. Copper and brass you can do but it’s a real burn on your tanks. Being able to remove the top is really nice, but having to run a single burner hotter you start melting crucibles after every 4-5 times using it. If it worked correctly I’d give it 4 stars, but the single undersized burner (fine to run with a second one) really crushes its positives. Would I buy it again, no. Would I still buy a Vevor product, yes. I think their stuff is usually really good but this was just designed poorly. Had they spread the burners another 2 inches apart it would possibly have been acceptable but as it is you only get a nice foundry with an undersized burner.

MISSING CRUCIAL ESSENTIALS
This melting furnace is a complete joke. It arrived without the graphite ingot, mold the rigidizer, refractory cement, or gloves, and this stuff isn’t easy to find anywhere. It’s not ready for use at all, and I easily could have damaged the insulation equipment if I hadn’t randomly come across a video that showed me exactly what to do. I’m warning everybody—do not purchase this unless you get these essentials.

Mr
I can’t get mine to melt anything, may try aluminum but I’m not holding my breath.
Going to try it with oxy/acetylene rose bud but that’s a cost I was trying to avoid.
Price would be good if it worked

It works
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
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!
