I love this product! There is not much to it as far as function goes, its a hollow tube with a mouthpiece on one end and a fork on the other. I use it all of the time for moving and flipping logs in my fire pit, as well as putting some air on a stubborn/smokey fire. The only thing wrong with the product is the weld along the flange of the brass mouthpiece. The seam where the brass goes from being part of the shaft to the flared out portion is very weak, and will easily break if you are not careful.I usually lean mine up against the arm of my chair or similar between uses while sitting around the fire. Through the course of an evening it might occasionally slide down the arm and tip over. Just that impact has been enough to break the questionable weld. It can be easily fixed with JBWeld or similar, since its not subjected to the fire and just holding the mouthpiece together. Were it not for that weak seam/weld, this would be a 5 star item all-day-long.
I like the item so much that after my first broke, I ordered a spare. The one I fixed is holding together fine, and the epoxy is likely much more solid than the original weld. The new one is still in the box as a spare, but I inspected the weld when I received it. Sadly, its painfully apparent that this weld is still the weakest link. Be careful, and don't let it fall over onto anything hard because eventually, it will break off the mouthpiece.
