Creates an inviting atmosphere

This is the best ambience item I have bought in years. I have gotten so much use out of it as soon as I took it out of the box.

The crackling sound is awesome. My 4 year old loves it . The first night we had it we plugged it in next to his bed and he fell

soundly asleep feeling "warm" and cozy.

No fuss no worries no mess... just unplug it and your done!More detail ...

Works well at sea level beware at 8k' or higher

This lighter works great when you're at sea level and if that's your goal then look no further. It is well built and lights very easily when enough oxygen is present.



If on the other hand you take this lighter backpacking at elevations higher than 8000 feet then your mileage may vary. It takes a lot of convincing to light at all at these elevations and you may find yourself without a flame at all.



The instructions advise you use premium butane fuel and to set the fuel level to the lowest setting when at higher elevations both of which I did. Unfortunately it still took 10-20 "clicks" before I got any sort of flame which is unacceptable.More detail ...

firewood tote

We used this at our cabin and my husband loved it! He could carry quite a few logs inside without all the usual mess. It made making a fire so much easier. It was easy to handle.More detail ...

Looks good works well

Solid (when loaded) nice-looking rack that fits well in the living room and ads some variety to all the square shapes that make up our living room furniture mantel stove rug etc.

This review is on day 3 of owning it so if it all falls apart next week I'll update then.More detail ...

Excellent deal!

I was not sure as what the quality was going to be on the Panacea Oak Leaf Screen and tool set for my fireplace but when it arrived it was excellent and so easy to put together (just open the box!) The shipping was so fast I was amazed.More detail ...

Survival

I purchased this product for a survival kit that I have for teaching Scouts and for my personal use. IT WORKS. What more can you say about a product. Used it for a class I taught for the "Wilderness Survival" merit badge and the young men had a great time using the flint and steel to start a fire. Used the Mayadust just to show them how flammable it is but used shaved "fire sticks" to show them how to do this if you have to and do not have Mayadust or other commerical products available.More detail ...

Simple sturdy and easy to use

I've built three racks with this product and am in the process of building 5 more. With six Wolmanized (chemically treated to resist rot and insects) 2x4's (about $9) a few lag bolts ($6) a hand saw and an electric drill you can create a rack that will take years of abuse and hold an amazing amount of firewood. Time to build a rack...less than 30 minutes!More detail ...

4' Log Rack

The main reason i bought this rack is because it is not made in China. I think it is made in Ohio. Anyway the rack is decent enough and holds about 6 wheelbarrows full of wood. it is fairly solid & sturdy. My only beef with it is that when assembled it is kind of cocked & does not sit level. I had to shim out one of the legs with a 1/2" piece of wood. Not a huge deal & maybe it is just inherent in the design. Four stars because of this.More detail ...

The tip falls off!

I use to have a poker that was solid...nothing screwed on; and it worked great. This poker is ok for the price but I'm going to use it as a spare and look for another solid one. I was using it and the tip came unscrewed and fell in the fire. It's good if you need it every once in a while but if you are going to use it for a lifetime don't bother. It will not last forever.More detail ...

Fire place screen

Great item for the price was shipped quickly. we were having a hard time finding one in the stores since it was spring time didnt want to wait till fall to buy one in the store. very nice large screen works alot better than those cheap wire mesh curtains that is on the fire placeMore detail ...

BarBQ Lighter

I have used this product several times now and it works great. Instead of looking for matches I just strike this once and the propane grill is going. I can store it outside where my grill is and I don't worry about it getting moist like matches would.More detail ...

Better than an AMEX card. . . Don't leave home without it.

It will work better than you can imagine. I carry a few alcohol wipes(good for a million things) with me and this lights them on the first try. I keep one in each car on the boat and in my briefcase. I may never need it but if I ever do I don't have to worry about it working. Magnesium sticks maybe cheap but they are hard to use. When it's windy the shavings blow away before you can light them. I needed one of those once and spent the night freezing. Do yourself a favor and buy one or more of these and never worry about being without a fire.

Update: If you are using this thing every day buy the bigger one but also examine your life style; should you really be starting fires like this on a daily basis?More detail ...
