Very sturdy and solid, heavy enough to not worry about the wood breaking it. Paintable to match your room or hardware (nice matte black finish will take a nice coat of spray-paint if you want), but looks just fine as is.

Heavy duty steel. looks exactly as picture. The 18" is the middle width not the total width at the top. It should state the overall width which is over 21"

I use these in my metal working shop for protecting my copper brazing station. They work really well, are great insulators, and stackable.

I ordered these to use for welding base so it was ok they came damaged. I would not recommend this to anyone who wants all 6 to come intact. They were not packed very well and UPS is not a white glove delivery service. The corners were chipped in varying degrees on all six

I bought these for my enameling station. I built them up like a house and put the very hot enameled piece into it so it cools slower and at a more even heat. I also use the extra blocks for soldering. They are thinner and longer then a normal brick which makes it allot easier to work with in the way I do. They are very affordable as well, at my local fireplace shoppe they were almost double! Even with the expensive shipping this seller has. You also have to understand that the bricks are VERY heavy so taking that into consideration shipping is very fair.

Did some shopping around at the local big box home stores and several specialty fireplace stores and was fairly unimpressed with the offerings. The big boxes had very limited offerings of quite flimsy and cheap looking sets. And while the fireplace stores had great offerings, the starting prices were in the high $200s. So I was left looking for something in the middle not cheap, but not breaking the bank as well. I also wanted something with some heft like the toolsets I remember my family having (whatever happened to those I wonder).

Anyway, the Uniflame set offered a good compromise it was a good price, solid construction, and a classic look. I might have wanted it be a little heavier, but it was close to what I was looking for in a toolset. It's made in China and I would have preferred made in the US.

All in all, a set that offers a good pricepoint and good quality.

This is a very sturdy fire grate with thick bars running the length of the cradle. Since buying I've dropped it, dropped 30lb logs on it, and burned about a cord of hardwood sitting on it. It has held up with no issues now going on three months. Overall I'd say it's performing better than expected. It certainly beat our old grate that had skinny little tines and completely collapsed after a year.

Handle of brush is good and solid (cast iron maybe?), but if you look at photo the bristles of the brush are off to one side and that is really the way they are stuck that way and they were sticky to the touch wasn't really able to sweap ash with it, the ash kind flew off, but then also stuck to the bristles. I couldn't exactly get them into the dust pan. I had written the seller to say maybe it was packaged wrong and the bristles were damaged, but now that I look at the photo I am thinking maybe that is the way it was made and it was just not the fireplace brush for me.

This item arrived crunched in a box.

The bristles were bent out of shape.

The brush is not usable.

The handle is too long.

waste of money.

I love to have fires in the fire place during the winter. I remembered salts from earlier that one could throw in the fire to color the flames. When I went to my local hardware store, I was told that these salts had been outlawed.

First, I ordered a hearth set, with a picture of the tools and log holder. Now the price has been lowered, the picture has been changed, and the description has been changed. Misleading is the kindest word I can think of for it. A more accurate description of that would be unscrupulously taking advantage of people. I want the log holder I ordered.

However, that is not why I gave the tool set two stars. That rating is for the tools alone, not for the dishonesty of the seller. They look nice, but the handles worked properly about the first half dozen uses. Since then, they have come lose every time we use them--and we are very careful with our property and do not have children. They come unscrewed.

I am afraid that the short screw welded to the tool will become stripped by repeated tightening. Unfortunately, the tightening is necessary for the tools to be functional. It is frustrating and unsafe when you are holding a burning log and the tool suddenly turns.

It is hard to find decent-looking, fairly-priced options for fireplace tools. I looked extensively before settling on this set, which at the time cost ninety US and included the log holder. I would advise you to keep looking.

I received the tool set and was very pleased with it but it did not come with Bristol Hearth log holder. I kept waiting for it to ship and never received it. Even the picture that you just sent me to review is of the Bristol Hearth log holder.

I tried to get back on line and it didn't show the Items together anymore, only separate pictures of the items. I'm pretty sure it was for both of them. Would be nice if some one could check this out and get back with me so I could give it a five star.

Got this oil heater from Target a month ago. I was dubious about these types of heater because of the smell. I placed it in the patio for 3 hours and brought it into the garage for another 2. The next day the garage still had some smell. Took it inside to the family room and the smell was all gone! I used the 1500W setting to burn of the smell but tripped the line plug switch. I only use the 600W & 900W setting for cost reasons.

I purchased this Holmes oil-filled radiator at our local store. I've owned several different brands of oil-filled heaters over the years. My first one was a Lakewood and it was an excellent heater. They don't seem to be available anymore. My second was a Honeywell with digital controls, likewise an excellent heater while it lasted. I also tried and returned two different DeLonghi heaters. Both DeLonghi heaters continued to put out irritating fumes even after the break in period. Alas, that was also the fate of this Holmes heater.

I unboxed the Holmes and set it outside, plugged it into the outdoor outlet and let it run on high for more than an hour. When I brought it inside it was still putting out fumes, but they didn't seem too noxious just a low level odor of warm plastic. My mistake. By bedtime, I didn't feel so good. The next morning I awoke with a headache. When I left the house my headache went away. When I came back, so did the headache. I turned the heater down to the 900 watt setting so I couldn't detect any more odor; however, the next day my headache was much worse and I was feeling nauseated. The Holmes was packed up and returned immediately!

I'm sticking with the Honeywell HZ-709, also available at Target. I brought one home and cranked it up the same day I returned the Holmes. It's running right now and I'm perfectly comfortable. I swear it puts out more heat. Best of all no fumes! It costs more, but it's worth the price. Apparently Kaz (the manufacturer) cares enough to use better quality materials which can withstand the heat without continually outgassing toxic fumes into the air you breathe. You can see my review of the Honeywell on its product page. Honeywell HZ-709 7 Fin Oil Filled Radiator Heater with Digital Controls Thanks for reading my review(s). I hope they are helpful.

I bought this item from Target on special offer as I thought this would be a useful background heater to boost the room temperature. It was easy to set up, simply clipping the wheels onto the bottom of the unit using the clamps which are tightened by hand.

The radiator has a variable thermostat to control the temperature and two separate power settings which can be combined to make a third. Settings are 600W, 900W or 1500W (both heater units on).

The surface of this radiator does get very hot, which is what it's designed to do, so I am not sure about the meaning of the phrase in the description that it has "specially engineered thermal fins to maximize heat flow, yet have a low surface temperature".

The radiator is easy to move on the wheels BUT I take away one star as it would be useful to have insulated handles on both sides of the radiator so that it can be lifted when hot, and not just one side for wheeling.

This shortcoming was noticeable when I had to move the hot radiator downstairs and so had to carry it with one hand on the insulated handle and the other on the opposite wheels. The unit is not particularly heavy so this was not a big problem, just an inconvenient design.

Other reviewers remarked that the radiator smelled bad, but we have not noticed this at all.

Overall I would recommend this product.

I don't like any of the heaters that have coils in them that glows red, just something about naked heat that scares me, therefore I decided to get one of these old fashioned oil filled heaters. I say old fashioned because these are the type of heaters that I see in old houses or pictures of the old days.

I too don't like the smell of burning radiators so before I plugged it in, I checked all around to see every like piece of packing plastic was removed and when I turned it on I did not get any burning plastic smell. There was some new smell of hot metal, but after a short time it went away.

Heatwise, I'm very pleased with this. I'm using it to heat a small room that doesn't have double paned glass and with this heater I don't even need to turn it on high. I just use the 900W button and turn the dial about 1/2 way and I'm fine. The heater does get pretty hot so I'm careful not to touch any metal parts. The best part about these oil filled heaters with a fan or any moving parts is that it's quiet.

Overall, I'm very pleased with this heater.

if your looking for a small tool set for your stove/ fireplace, this item is pretty good. the metal parts are simular quality to one which cost $80.00. the only draw back is the broom is round and stiff.

I am very pleased with the set! The stiff lighter colored brush has been replaced with a black colored brush that works well with the shovel (see image gallery picture for new version). I am also very pleased with the size at around 18" tall (like stated) which is perfect for my apartment fireplace. You may want to spend more for a taller set if you have a larger home, but perfect to get the job done with limited space such as my small hearth. The quality seems pretty good...appears to be a shiny black powder coated wrought iron and is holding up well so far.

I love that this is nice and small. The brush doesn't look like the one in the thumbnail, its black and looks like a traditional fireplace brush. I live in a small condo and this is absolutely the perfect size -doesn't take up too much space and being small it makes my fireplace look much larger. I couldn't be happier.

I am happy with this set for it works great with my small apartment fireplace. I would not recommend it for a large or normal size fireplace because of petite size. The only thing I was not happy about this set was the broom is not the same as the one pictured.

This was a 'last minute' Christmas gift while the gauge of metal and welds were good, I was disappointed the broom was not as it appears in the picture. The broom that comes with this set is awkward to use on narrow hearths the one in the picture would have been more effective for our need.

This glove does the job. I can take hot pans straight out of the oven, with no problems. Unlike an oven mitt, the fingers are separate, so you have more control. I like the little red grippy things on the glove as well.

You obviously can't hold a hot pan for too long, but it provides enough insulation to get pans out of the oven and onto the rack.

Do note that you will receive ONE glove, not a pair.
