I only needed it for a white stucco fireplace to remove soot. I don't think it's the products fault, NOTHING removes soot from this surface. But since they did claim it would, I have to submit a review for that one item. It is fine on other surfaces.

We just had a newborn and in need a water heater so we can have access to boiled water 24/7. Those 1.5 Liter water kettles can not keep up with the workload, 4 Liter is the perfect capacity. We can not use our Zojirushi because of the chemical coatings on the interior. We do not want to take any risk, the interior has to be stainless steel, absolutely no plastic.

We are glad we purchased this water heater. The interior pot is made of stainless steel. There is a night light under the sprout turns on when the water dispense is unlocked. The light illuminates the area right under the sprout, it is so convenient for us to prepare formula in the night without turning on all the lights. The night light also tells you approximately where the water will be dispensed at.

The other feature I really like is the 3D dispense button. The dispense button is big with chrome finish. My old zojirushi dispense button is one layer of PVC plastic that close to wearing out after a few years. The 3D dispense button on this secura water heater is easy to access and hard to miss.

The water dispense starts slow and after a few seconds the flow volume increases, so the water does not splash out. Another very nice feature that we really love.

My previous hot water pot suddenly gave up the ghost; its pump simply died. That was annoying, it would heat up just fine, but no way to dispense the water save ladling it out with a soup ladle. We did get about five years of constant use but I was not going to buy the same brand. After a lot of research, I could find complaints on any brand but this one seemed to have a lot of features and no bad reviews (so far.) I got the stainless and white model; it also has a black version.

First, this has a lot more features than my previous model the Sunpentown 3 Litre Hot Pot. This model has a choice of temperatures (from 208 to 194 to 175F.) There is a dispensing lock. When unlocked, an orange light is lit and not only is the light indicating you can dispense water, but it lights up underneath as well. I noticed when I was filling my teapot, it made it easier to see the water level in the pot.

There is a gauge to show water level and a beep tells you that water has reached temperature. The dispensing button itself is a hefty wide lever on the top, not a button under a membrane. Already, I'm liking this model a whole lot more than my previous one, and the price is about the same. The inside is stainless steel and the capacity is 4 liters or about a gallon. So it does take longer to heat up than the 3 liter model I had before.

There are two speeds for dispensing, which you can choose underneath. The unit will automatically shut off if there is insufficient water inside. And there is a descaling cycle. The outside is warm, insulated from the inside. It is not cold, but is pleasantly warm and you can touch it while the pot is on.

That's a lot of features and so far, I'm very pleased. It is superior to my old one and it's nice to have a supply of hot water for tea all evening and weekend long.

This is an amazing water boiler, my old boiler is still working but the Teflon coating on the inner pot starts to come off. May be I did not clean the pot as often as should. I got this boiler with stainless steel, hopefully I do not have to worry about the issues with coatings. So far it has been great, I like the thermostat settings. It boils water to 212 degree and keeps boiling for a few minutes to kills all the germs and softens water. And you can choose to keep warm at 208, 194, 175 degree, and you can set it to auto cool which does not use electric to keep warm. If you do not care about the water temperature like us, choose auto cool. It saves energy and water still keeps warm all day.

This is my second air pot purchase. My first air pot was an inexpensive one with no temperature control. I figured "Why do I need temperature control? It's going to boil water then keep it hot so I can have tea without waiting for a kettle to boil." I was so very, very wrong.

You see, I live in Denver, the "Mile High" city. I realize many things I purchase; cake mixes mostly, have directions for high altitude cooking that I usually ignore. They turn out fine anyway. But an air pot is different than a cake. It does only one thing. It boils water then keeps it warm. Here water boils at about 202*, 10* less than sea level.

Most air pots come from Japan which is most definitely sea level.

The first air pot NEVER stopped boiling. It was desperately attempting to reach 212*F and all it was succeeding at was adding moisture to our air, which admittedly we need but not what I bought it for. I returned it with disappointment and spent the time awaiting my refund looking at other air pots.

I believed, during that time, I was going to be stuck ordering the Zojirushi at twice the price because it was the same one as my mother in law's, the person who showed me how wonderful air pots are. Then I came across this. It was much less expensive so, with Amazon's return policy having worked out well once, I thought I would give it a try. It arrived, I filled it up, set it to 194* though the box proclaimed it boiled water to 212*, and then waited for all the water to boil away once again. The water came to a boil and I walked away. It was going to take a long time to boil away 4L of water, but to my surprise it beeped a short time later! My water was boiled and not being held at 194*. I emptied it, filled it again and got the same result, plus it had gone through the recommended couple of boils to clean it out.

It has been only five days but the family is in love. There are three ways to dispense; a button on top, a manual pump, and the convenient little cup button underneath. And the light is a nice touch and a big, orange light lets you know when it is unlock for dispensing and it doesn't stay unlocked for too long; excellent when there are little button pushers running around the house. It also seems to be keeping the water at a consistent temperature, but I will have to simply trust it on that as my candy thermometer claims it being kept at 238*F. I think I can safely assume that that needs replaced (and would explain why my last batch of fudge turned out so horribly).

Condensed version of this; great air pot, highly recommended!

The overall construction and operation of the product is very good. Water can be pumped out using either the electric pump or the manual pump at the top.

The interior is all stainless steel which is the reason I bought this one. However, after a week of boiling and cleaning, I could still taste plastic in the water. So I dissembler it to investigate. It turned out the problem is with the lid. The hot steam gets into the lid and then condenses inside the lid. The inside of the lid is made of plastic parts; only the part you can see is made of stainless steel. The steam condenses on the plastic and then back-flows into the pot and therefore contaminating the water.

I recently purchased the SUNHEAT Electronic Infrared Zone Heater. I bought this product for my father who sleeps in a reclining chair at night. He wanted a heater that would warm the air in the room and after using it for less than a day, he said the room felt more comfortable and it was easier for him to relax and sleep. The product works better than expected and it is quieter than I thought it would be. My only complaint, [if you want to call it a complaint], would be that the remote control buttons are difficult to use for someone who has limited strength in their fingers. I definitely would not let this influence my decision in buying another one of these heaters, but it is something to think about if the person using it has limited hand strength, such as someone who is handicapped or is elderly.

This Sunheat has a 3-year warranty if you check with others in the same price range you'll probably find a one year warranty that, in some cases, does not cover labor. It has a wood cabinet not metal or plastic and nice digital readout. And most important it works great! And will last for years not just one year. I feel Sunheat is not that well known compared to mass advertised brands but it is the best heater for the money. I trust it because I have oil heat in my home and I refuse to pay around $4.00 per gallon I heat using two infrared heaters and two radiator heaters in a mild climate in winter of 20 to about 50 degrees my house is about 1200 sq ft., Over oil heat I save a least $200 per month and I am nice and toasty warm. Their other heater has a 5 year warranty and you can't go wrong with that.

The only disappointment I have is that on the SUNHEAT website, they imply they are a US company, only the cabinet is made in the US. (at least that's something). The unit itself is from China. Looks nice and works well, I have no complaints.

Update: 4/17/2013 Unit has never been in a damp area, yet the cabinet is starting to delaminate on the top front edge. Also, on the rear where the intake filter screen is located the chassis was not drilled correctly for the assembly screws causing the sheet metal to be rippled. This keeps the screen from fitting correctly. Poor Chinese workmanship.

Upside: The Spa is bigger than I expected. Generally comfortable, very easy to set up (once you figure out the instructions) and as portable as promoted. Once the spa reaches top temp 105 degrees on the indicator and you turn on the blower. You get a spa experience that is as pretty impressive. The water agitation is vigorous and well distributed around the spa.

The down side: The spa has no hot water jets. It uses a blower to churn the water. The problem is the blower churns and cools the water in the process. So after 15 minutes the spa has lost between 3 and 4 degrees. By the time you go through two of the automatic 15 minute cycles you drop from 105 to about 100 degrees. If you stay in for 45 minutes the spa will cool to about 97-98 degrees and will take 3-4 hours to return to 105.

If all you want is a quick 15-30 minute experience you'll probably be quite satisfied. If you like long spas sittings or have a number of family members who want to take turns. This rig will not do the trick.

Other issues: The heating pump runs so quitely you can't tell it's on. (very nice) But the blower is loud and sounds like a vacuum. The sound of the bubbles sort of masks the blower but if you're sensitive to sound it can be distracting. I found some other reviews on the Spa2go and about half of the people complained about the pump and the blower failing. I've had mine a month so far running everyday 24/7 and so far no problems with either. The reviews also said that getting customer service or replacement parts is difficult. One person reported waiting three months and still no part. I'm hoping I don't have to deal with this. There also seems to be a few degree discrency between the actual water temp and the indicated temp... About 2 degress less by my thermometer. but I need to get another one to confirm this. Also, the material used in the cover doesn't seem to be as thick as the material in the body. Mine sprung two holes on the first day and had to be patched. I now am very carful where I lay the cover.

Bottom line.. All things considered I would still make this purchase because the price is at least a third of the cost of a typical portable spa. If you think of this purchase as disposable or a stepping stone to a better spa...you'll probably not be disappointed. So not great but for $799 good enough.

Biggest disappointment was with how Amazon fulfilled the order.. Was supposed to ship overnight. Took over a week and at least 15 calls to customer service reps in the Philippines who had no ability to contact the warehouse and find our why the product has not shipped. after One lost shipment and many frustrating calls and emails It finally made it into the UPS system for shipment... Most surprising was that I was told that if I cancel the order it would take up to 5 days to get the $799 credited back to my card.. So my "overnight" purchase turned out to be a week in Amazon customer service hell. Stresses me out just thinking about it.. think I'll head to the spa after this.

We rent a home and didn't want to go through the expense of purchasing a "real" hot tub and then selling it when we move. When I saw this I was a bit circumspect but I saw it on sale for $540 on Amazon and combined with free shipping I decided it was worth it.

The instructions are poorly written but the setup wasnt too painful. I only found out I couldn't use an extension cord with it after I started filling it, so I had to pump the water out and move it.

Once I got it all set up I really didn't think I would enjoy it but I was pleasantly surprised. It looks like a glorified kiddie pool. It took me about 20 hours until it reached its maximum temp. Once I got in I was hooked. It is quite comfortable! more-so than many very expensive hot tubs that I have been in. The water agitation is good and it is quite relaxing.

The biggest negative I can think of is that the temperature drops fairly rapidly. I can start it at 105 and within 15 minutes it will drop to around 100 and if its particularly cool outside (I live in San Jose CA so when I say cool I am talking about 50 degrees) it will go from 105 to about 97 in that time. It does, however, feel wonderful when there is a cool breeze. Another negative is that you cannot easily inflate it again once it is set up, for example, the cover needs to be re-inflated but to do so is a huge hassle. I also didn't realize that it would require chemicals and weekly PH testing and filter cleaning but that is mostly due to my own lack of thought.

Overall I have to say that I am quite pleased although this really just doesnt meet hot tub standards. I think I am going to get a real hot tub in addition to this or when I move but this did help me decide that I definitely want a real hot tub!

Buy Portable Hot Tub Now

Let me start off by saying how pleased I am with the Comfort Line Spa-to-Go! I found it on sale on Amazon & it arrived about 12 days after I placed the order, which was just two days after the earliest delivery date from Amazon. It was relatively easy to set up, though at a 1 1&1/2 degree increase per hour, it took over two days to reach 105 from 61. There's little mention in the manual of maintaining the water balance (Ph, Bromine, Alkalinity), and this was a gray area on a few previous reviews. You can get most of the stuff you'll need at a local pool/spa shop, or even a well-equipped RiteAide or the like. I ordered the combo-care kit via Amazon for this model, & though its a little pricey ($145 after fees & shipping), it covers all bases, includes two replacement filters, and is probably worth the investment if you plan on having/maintaining your's for awhile. It took several days to get the water balanced, but its been pretty easy to maintain ever since. The plastic smell is still there after about a month, but is fading. I'd also recommend getting spa fragrance oil (12-20 drops per use), as this helps with the bromine smell & bleachy, dried-out feel. But the real hidden cost of this unit is, not surprisingly, the cost of electricity. I waited until I'd owned & run mine for an entire billing cycle, and the results are in. I ran it non-stop (i.e., not ever unplugging it), and used it generously for the whole first month (running the jets about one 15 minute cycle a day) and my electric bill tripled. That's 3x as much electric usage. Now it'll be different for everyone given their usage of it, but your bill's apt to take a drastic jump. I'm now turning off the unit at night & letting it warm back up and filter throughout the day so its clean & hot to use at night. If I want a morning soak, I'll leave it on overnight & maybe give it a rest during the day. Also, the metallic lining on the spa cover is already torn, which I'll need to look into to see if its warranteed. All in all I'm glad I bought this, but had hoped for a review of both the chemcials & electric costs before buying it, and am offering it for others who might be curious. Enjoy!

Purchased this product and had problems right out the box and had to have several replacements sent with no success in keeping this working at all..5 power packs so far and it still does not work. This motor is not strong enough to cope with what its expected to do. Water does not go above 96 in cooler weather and takes a full week to get to that temp and the blower blows cold air into tub so the tub gets cold really fast. After blowing up the tub liner it distributes the air uneven and all on the one side which distorts the tub a lot and was told this is a fault they see often...not kidding! The worst customer service you could imagine and customer complaints are all over the Internet regarding this company. After replacing your part they will then demand an $89.00 fee to ship out another part. Check with the BBB and see a list of complaints regarding this company and their product. Save your money on this until they decide to bring out a larger more powerful motor this will not last a season. Great idea if it worked but I wasted $800 not to mention laying a concrete foundation to place this on and all my chemicals to use it. Funny thing I keep noticing are complaints filed on websites selling this item end up miraculously disappearing so wonder if this one will remain here and if I could give this no stars I would.

We purchased the Spa-N-A-Box nearly 2 yrs ago and have had to replace the power pack/motor at least 5 times. They offer a warranty, however, their free shipping offer for a replacement pack is only good for 30 days. We have had to pay their $89 shipping charge 3 times even though the power pack was less than 3 months old. Now I was told that the error message on our power pack we paid for shipping on just 30 days ago, En1, indicates hard water damage which is not covered under their warranty, even though this same error message appeared on a previous power pack, for which they honored their warranty even though we were forced to pay the $89 shipping fee to replace it. Refurbished power packs are $250, new packs are $450, approx. Neither work better than the other. Too much trouble and money for what you get. I plan to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

However it makes as much noise as a hair dryer. Therefore is hard to keep it on for too long. Am considering returning the item.

Lasko Heater Model 5409 is the newer version of its predecessor, Model 5429 (according to Amazon; which I don't dispute).

BELOW, is my review of Lasko Model 5429. The info about Lasko Model 5429 also pertains to its successor, Model #5409.

SHORT STORY: If you use either of these heaters in a bathroom, the life of the heater will definitely be shortened.

I have owned two of these terrific little heaters -Lasko "Oscillating Ceramic Heater Model 5429."

HOWEVER, I have learned that the manufacturer states that this heater SHOULD NOT BE USED IN A BATHROOM. Not due to safety reasons, but FOR THIS REASON: The dampness/humidity from showers and tubs causes the heating element to corrode -causing the heater to permanently stop working.

I bought my second one of these heaters in July 2012, and on December 31, 2012 (6 months), the heater "died." Location where I used the heater: the BATHROOM.

Here is the link to the Lasko website, and product info for "Oscillating Ceramic Heater Model 5429."

[link not allowed by Amazon]

On the page that comes up, there is a button, "User Manual."

Click on that -it brings up a PDF file (which you can download, or read online).

On page 2 of the PDF, go to the second (smaller) "Warning" icon, and below it read item #15:

"15. This Heater is not intended for use in wet or damp locations. This Heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor locations."

There is a 3-year Manufacturer's Warranty. But, Amazon will not accept return of products whose Purchase Date is older than 30 days. Amazon Customer Service advised me to contact Lasko, which I did: Lasko Customer Service: 800-233-0268. Lasko has graciously consented to replace my heater this time, but they made sure I understand that using it in a bathroom will definitely shorten its life.

HERE is a space heater that is made to work in bathrooms.

In fact, it is named Holmes® Bathroom Heater, MODEL HFH436-NM. Note: Ignore the differing letters after HFH436; these two "models" are the same heater.

FYI: Holmes Customer Service, 800-545-5637

Regarding this unit on Amazon: Holmes Customer Service (on 1/4/2013) told me that the model listed on Amazon -Holmes® Bathroom Heater, MODEL HFH436WGL-U -is the same as MODEL HFH436-NM.

They are one and the same unit. I have just now (1/4/2013) placed an Amazon order for this bathroom heater.

Bought this heater for our office spaces and these work so well! The heat coverage is great and it's a very simple, non complicated heater so the functions are simple, hi or low and fan. Temperatures are adjustable and simple dial too. The sound doesn't bother me or my coworkers, it's not that loud, you can hear it but it's not annoying or causing an increase in speaking volume. Someone said it's as loud as a hair dryer -that is inaccurate and over exaggerated. It's a calming background noise. Definitely good when the office gets too quiet.

I Love this heater and I hope it lasts me for next winter too if not, it's so decently priced, buying a new one isn't a problem! I recommend it!

I have four indoor fireplaces and this is the first time I have used the Smartfuel brand. It is wonderful. It burns clean, no black sooty stuff can be seen in the flame at all. It also seems as if it burns longer than other brands I have used in the past. You can also expect to get good and very responsive customer service from the seller. I would order this product again and have kept it on my "fav" list for all future buys.

So I bought this fuel hoping to use it with my indoor little fireplace thingy, and lo and behold they sent me the wrong fuel that is not compatible with my unit. I was so bummed, especially when I realized I couldn't send it back through the post because it is considered a "dangerous/flammable" liquid. Upon contacting the company, I was delighted when they told me they would send me the correct fuel AND refund my money AND let me keep what they had already sent me. Booyah!

Once the fuel did arrive, it was pretty awesome. The cap is touted as a safety pour cap or some nonsense, but I think it just makes a mess and pours smoother without the cap. Other than that, the fuel is as advertised--no smell, no soot, and a pretty nice flame once it gets going. This is my first experience with an indoor fuel, so I can't speak to the longevity, but it doesn't seem to last too long. I get about 4 hours on almost half a bottle so it's pretty costly.

Overall though, good product and even better customer service. Will purchase from again.

I previously had a propane patio heater with a pilot light. What a pain! This heater with a pilotless direct ignition is fantastic. It lights right away, then shut it off when you are done. No getting on a stepstool and peering into the heater to see if the damn pilot light is lit. Plus, they blow out, not to mention that the thermocouple does not last and then you might as well throw them away, since they are not easy to repair. With this unit, you turn it on when you want to use it and then shut it down. Much easier to use and worth the extra money. Unit is not too heavy, so easy to move around on the built in wheels. A bit disappointed that the "stainless" steel base is beginning to rust in only a few months, but I can probably get it off with a little steel wool. Assembly is about 45 minutes and instructions are good. I am buying a second one and would never go back to a model with a pilot light. Get a patio heater cover for it also. Exposing the burners and ignition system to the elements most likely shortens the life of a heater significantly.

I'm very disappointed in the value proposition of this product. Upon arrival, one of the heat shield panels was dented, making it very difficult to assemble. The bolts supplied with the product are the cheapest bolts possible. I sheared a bolt in half while tightening it. The holes to assemble the parts together are poorly machined and don't always line up with each other.

Now after 1 month of being outside in a fairly cool northern California spring, the center post of my "stainless steel" heater has rust marks.

For the price of the heater, I'm not impressed with the quality of workmanship and I'm concerned of the overall durability of this product to stand up to the elements. If this was a $150 heater, I wouldn't be as upset. However, for $300, I would expect a much better product.

I was extremely disappointed in this product. It is absolutely not worth it! The parts are poorly made. It was almost impossible to put the heat shield together since the small nuts & bolts were not long enough to fit through 3 pieces of metal. I honestly had to wrestle the heat shield on the ground, and take it apart numerous times, since it all never lined up properly. When I finally did get the entire unit together, the ignition switch would not work, and the heater's main burner would not light up. After numerous attempts to make it work, I boxed it up and sent it back. To give you some sense of what a pain it was to put this heater together, the same day as I put the patio heater together, I also assembled a Weber Gas Grill. My father and I had more trouble putting the patio heater together than we did the finely crafted Weber Grill! Now with a new beautiful grill and no patio heater, I was going to order a patio heater from Restoration Hardware since I thought they would offer a higher quality product. What I discovered when looking at their specs, the heater they offered was actually the Fire Sense Deluxe Patio Heater offered on Amazon for $50 more then this originally ordered heater. Restoration Hardware offered the Deluxe heater for $449, but did include a cover with it. I opted to order the unit from Amazon at $304.00 and it arrived yesterday. I immediately noticed the quality of parts is much higher, and the heat shield went together without a glitch, also better designed as it has fewer pieces. Overall this new Deluxe heater went together smoothly, except for one MAJOR flaw in the directions! The Deluxe Heater stand is not weighted, and there is a plastic unit on the bottom that needs be filled with sand. You should fill the plastic tote as your first step before doing anything else. I put the entire heater together & then was going to fill the plastic bottle at the end, but with the weight of the sand, I could not re-attach it (I was working by myself this time). I ended up having to take the heater apart again, so I could wrangle the base and attach the sand filled weight. The directions do not say anything about filling the plastic tote! My Deluxe Heater starts right up & provides excellent heat range!! The moral of this story is, spend $50 more and get the Deluxe Patio Heater, forget about this shoddy unit!

Purchased this for enclosed patio / lanai in Florida. These patio heaters are very popular in Florida because there is a large part of the year when the evenings are just a bit too cold to sit outside. I did not want to spend $1200 on a real commercial model as it would only be used once a week at most. There is a unit on Amazon that goes for $179 and has decent reviews however some reported that it starts to rust rather quickly. I chose this higher priced model because it is made from the higher quality "304" stainless steel and should hold up better to the frequent rain and humidity in Florida. It took me 45min to assemble and was pretty straight forward, although the instructions are light on the details. The amount of hardware was much less than I expected and everything seemed to line up nicely. The heater fired right up and you CAN feel the heat 9ft away as advertised. I really like the pilotless lighting system. Time will tell how this hold up but I am expecting a few years of trouble free usage. I like that the company is here in Florida and specializes in patio accessories. Parts should be easy to come by as they make a lot of patio heaters (manufactured in China, serviced and distributed in Amelia Island, FL).

For $300, this heater meets my expectations.

I like to run something for a while before I provide a review. We purchased this in Sept 2011, and used it extensively last winter. It was easy to put together, although I say I am mechanically inclined. We use it in an outdoor covered patio and in our barn. Pretty easy to move without the tank in it. Lights every time on the first try and burns very clean. I brought home monitors from work to check for CO (carbon monoxide) levels as I was using it in the barn, which is mostly contained, (but a fairly drafty). CO readings were always zero at all levels and distances from the unit. Also, I was surprised that very little heat radiates above the unit. It does a very nice job at 'pushing' the heat downward. I have a Mr Heater garage natural gas unit now on the side patio and it seems to shoot a sizeable amount of the heat upwards towards the ceiling rather than down on us. I don't recommend you run this patio heater this way, but it is good to know that the beams above on the patio roof wont get hot if one of our inebriated guests decides to move the unit while I'm in the house. We also liked this particular unit because it has a flat surface on the tank cover. The surface is large enough for multiple beverages and/or ash-tray (for us cigar smokers).

I would have given this 5 stars, but I was a little disappointed that some surface corrosion was apparent shortly after using it a few times. It seems to wipe right off, and I hit it with some metal polish and is slowed its return. Otherwise, I love this heater.

Logset was easy to assemble and install. Follow the directions, they're pretty good. If you get the remote-again follow directions because the wire colors don't match up. Otherwise a great and realistic unit that keeps all the heat it generates in the house.

The fireplace is almost everything I wanted. The only think missing is the real sound of a fireplace and I have added a Woodwick candle on the mantle to get the desired effect. Do ASK for the assembly instructions. II held me back a week for the enjoyment of my fireplace. My cats LOVE to cuddle in front of it just like the Night Before Christmas!. Once I got the instructions,, even me, a no DIY gal, was able to put it together and I enjoyed doing so I recommend this for its ambiance and for the opportunity to put your Xmas garland and lights on the mantle after it is assembled. Enjoy! Dr. Carole M. Rowland.

These tongs had made such a difference when we installed our patio. I had to move most of the pavers myself, so I ordered 2 tongs and it was awesome. Since I finished the patio, I have extra pavers in which I will be landscaping around the house and I've been using them for this as well. Love them. The rubber grip handle is very comfortable and highly recommend this pair.

These were SO worth the money! We're building a basement and this makes lifting/setting the blocks a thousand times easier.

We needed to move several cubes of 4x8x16 concrete blocks for a project at home. The plan was to put them on a wagon 12 at a time, pull the wagon to the job site and then use the blocks. Well, doing it by hand we found that concrete blocks tear up your fingers and when you wear gloves you don't get the dexterity you need to grab the edges of the blocks to get them off the palletized cube. Years ago when we built a brick patio, our brick mason neighbor loaned us a pair of professional brick tongs to make moving 2 cubes of paving bricks easier. Those tongs were 5 stars, the Mintcraft gets 4 stars because it's possible to push it too far onto the block and grab with the wrong part of the tong. This is a very minor complaint but when it happens, there is a chance a 32 pound concrete block might drop on your foot so I needed to mention it. If you pay attention to what you're doing this is a great tool and worth every penny.

The tongs work well and hold either 6 bricks stacked vertically or 4 bricks flat.

this helps to move bricks from where they are already down or move them from a pallet.

comfortable handle even with 6 bricks.

Two were bought to give balance carrying the load.

This tool was unable to be adjusted which makes it a really bad product. It can only be used

for bricks that are square in shape and not for bricks that are made with a smaller back that

allows the brick to be angled or made into a circle.
