BLUEFIRE MRS-7014B Trigger Start Gas Welding Torch Head for Propane & MAP PRO Fuel,Extend 1.5" Burning Tube Nozzle Piezo Self Ignition Handhold Cylinder Soldering Brazing Triple-Point Flame

Before purchasing this unit, I read through all comments here, and many complaints are about the ignition and shut-off during usage. After I got mine and been using for days, I did not found anything wrong with this torch, if using it properly. In my opinion, this is a great torch with good price. It is a entry-level torch but still can meet most needs for ordinary people like me (i.e. not professionals making a living on this). I found almost all user complaints are rooted to one thing: that this torch is direct-input torch head just as same as the Bernzomatic WT2301. So the bottle pressure dominates everything: Cannot ignite? Just turn to low the gas knob when pushing the trigger. Shut-off when inverted? Of course it will extinguish when inverted, since it does not have anti-flare and that is why it is cost much less than those high end models. Shut-off during using? Check your environmental temperature, this is probably due to the surrounding temperature is too high and the bottle pressure goes up, it is not the torch’s problem but the bottle’s, bring the bottle to some cool place for a while may solve the problem. Similarly, flame is too small? Maybe this is because you are using it in ice cold winter and the low temperature cause the bottle pressure too low, use some hot water to warm up the bottle. See? Almost all complaints can related to the direct input design and could solved easily. you get what you pay for, and you work with what you have at hand, simple as that

Came in quick and easy. Really good and sturdy product. Actually makes the flames really strong. Would recommend

Poor quality, please dont waste your money. The igniter works maybe 30% of the time you have to have the perfect weather condition and have to bottle standing exactly upright at all time and if you move even slightly the flame extinguishs. Makes ot completely unstable. There is now returns for this product so do yourself a favor and go buy a better one this one sucks and now im out $20 and I have to go out and buy a new one. Complete waste of money.

Puts out a nice flame, not too big not too small. Electric starts works great too.

My torch worked for a few mins then would start going out and just spitting large flame balls out. I contacted the seller and they are sending me a new one. If the new one stays working it's a good torch.

Works as it should at a good price. Very basic easy to use. Good heat. Safe turn off.

It did not work as desired. The flame cannot be adjusted to a very low burn. I had to return to using my old torch that had issues. The new one didn't work any better than my 40 year old one.

It works great.

Got what I ordered and was delivered in a short time, but right out of the box it did not work. Tried it on 2 propane cylinders and 1 mapp gas cylinder, but can’t even hear the gas hissing out of the nozzle.

I have to sweat off an old outside garden faucet, and the heavy thing looks like it will need a lot of heat. This cylinder is great that it can be shipped, and I don't have to go to the hardware store. I had a problem with the nozzle, in that it clogged up right away. However, the vendor sent another one without question. I am very impressed.

I don’t think the manufacturers of these propane torches (in general) expect the user to use this torch more than a few times a year so most of them are not very rugged. I use it every day so I will see soon enough how well it holds up. I like the simple compact design of this one. The gas valve operates easily and feels like it shuts off well. The spark lighter works first time every time. I hope it lasts. The shape of the tube tip is good. And the flame is a nice size and shape. One caution: there are 2 models. One for propane and one for MAPP gas. Don’t get the wrong one! I ordered the right one and got the wrong one since they look the same. Blue knob/yellow knob. The return pickup process has repeatedly failed. The carrier set the pickup date and then fail to show up. Repeatedly! Someone needs to fix this.

Very light duty construction, my torch fell over on the floor while working on a vehicle and the entire plastic housing broke. Would recommend spending a bit extra to get something more durable

I bought it 18 months ago and used it a few dozen times to start fires in my fireplace, and the yellow wheel is already broken. Otherwise, it was working well.
