Reviews of Superior Performance Broom & Dust Pan Set - 195

Superior Performance Broom & Dust Pan Set - 195
Customer Ratings: 4 stars
Buy Now
I was tired of the 'dollar store' type brooms. I was purchasing one every few months because of the broom bristles falling out or either not being stiff enough to sweep thoroughly without having to go over the same area multiple times. I also need the dust pan to have a long handle, so I don't have to bend over or squat. This broom & dust pan set is perfect for me! It feels very sturdy, plus doesn't look bad either! In the past, I wouldn't have considered paying this much for a broom/pan set, but after the last 4 or 5 brooms/pans I've purchased (all different brands), I realized the quality just wasn't as good as they were in the past. In fact, the last one I owned, the dust pan handle broke in half with gentle use. If you're like me, and tired of cheap brooms/pans that don't last, give this one a try!

Works well and looks good. FYI, the handle of broom measures 33 inches. Add 4" to that

for brush-part ensemble and the total height (from floor to the top of brush handle) is 47"

The (brush) handle clips to the handle of the pan and has a loop for hanging.

The pan measures 37" (in open position, flat on floor measured to top of handle) It closes

automatically when carrying it. In open position, flat on floor, the pan locks into place.

The lock-feature allows one to use a full size broom, if that is preferred.

I found the swivel feature of the broom-head to be an annoyance. I remedied that by using

electrical tape to "lock" it in place... problem solved. All-in-all I like this product and

I'm glad that I purchased it.

Very happy with this broom and dustpan set. Excellent quality and the longer handles are a blessing! No more stooping over. Nothing to it as far as putting it together. Took no more than a couple of minutes. Seller very helpful when I had a question.

I got the Superior Performance Broom & Dust Pan Set today. I screwed one handle into dust pan and the other handle into the broom. When I went to pick up the dust handle it broke off at the dust pan right in the middle of the twists. I'm sending it back.

I've heard a lot of people complain about rusting with these. You have to care for them properly to avoid that. Properly seasoned cast iron is very nearly indestructible if maintained. When you get it, wast it out, let it dry completely, then wet a cloth in vegetable oil, and wipe on a thin coat inside and out. Bake it at 400 degrees for half an hour. IGNORE THE SMOKE. IT'S FINE! it will smoke a LOT though. Open a window for ventilation. After the half hour bake time, let it cool, then repeat the oiling and baking two more times. When you are done, it's properly seasoned. Redo it two or three times a year. We use ours over the open fire when we are camping. It's awesome to have hot water for tea, cocoa, and even dish washing.

BTW, that seasoning method keeps your cast iron skillets in prime shape too. If any cast iron cookware gets crusty and you cant scrub it clean, put them in an electric oven, and turn on the self-clean feature. When it cools down, wire brush the crud off, and follow the seasoning instructions above, :-)

This is a good heavy tea kettle. I got it to sit on the woodburning stove to evaporate water into the air. My old one finally rusted through after many years, and this seems like it will be a good replacement for it.

This is great as a decorative peace, however not so good as a functional tea pot or humidifier. We use ours on our fire place insert as a humidifier when the fire place is going. It rusted out rather quickly even before I refilled it a sencond time. Buy with caution! I will be replacing mine with a copper or stainless still tea kettle soon.

like my pot very much. It is very well made. top seals rather well so steam comes from spout. would buy again

I received this product a week or so ago, and I am very satisfied with it. That is because I purchased it for the purpose it was made for. As a humidifying steamer pot for your wood stove top! Not as a teapot for brewing tea... So I don't really care if minerals deposit on the inside, or if it even rusts a little! Because it is serving the purpose it was designed for. I'm sure I might have even been able to avoid the rust if I decided to season it with some oil, but I had no intention of cooking anything in it... If you are looking for a teapot to brew tea in, I suggest you buy a teapot designed for that. Buy this one if you want to put it on your wood stove, and add a little moisture to the air. Besides, look at the price! It is one of the cheapest of it's kind out there, and it really has a lot of weight to it, which makes it nice and sturdy. Just saying...

Cheap Bic Surestart Lighter

Bic Surestart Lighter
Customer Ratings: 3 stars
List Price: $5.49
Sale Price: $5.10

Childproofing features mean that this product requires a strong grip. Not for the elderly or arthritic wanting an easy fireplace lighter. My elderly parent could not light it using both hands. Works great for me, but it was supposed to have been a helpful gift. Also, I would not have ordered had I known it was disposable. I don't fault the product, which probably will work well for you, but the description is incomplete.

It's Bic, that says it all. I use it for lighting my wood stove and heaters. It may cost more, but it lasts till it's outa fuel. The rest crap out half way through the fuel supply, so which really is cheaper.

Best Deals for Bic Surestart Lighter

I ordered 4 of them. They very quickly became extremely unreliable to light, I'm talking an average of 20 clicks to get a flame. Threw them out even before I had used up 1/4 of the fuel in them and ordered some better ones.

Honest reviews on Bic Surestart Lighter

Even using both hands, I'm unable to make one of these light, due to arthritis in my hands. I wrote Bic about it and they didn't even reply. My son took one apart tonight trying to dismantle the child-proof feature for me, but all it did was break the darn thing. I bought a four-pack, so I threw out the broken one and gave him the other three. He said it was even hard for his hands to light.

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Bic Surestart Lighter

I use these BIC lighters to light everything from candles to fireworks. The flame height is pre-adjusted. Hold the top button down with your thumb, then use your index finger to pull the button that ignites the flame. The flame usually ignites on the first try. When it doesn't ignite on the first try, usually it isn't more than two or three clicks before the flame appears.

I recommend this lighter. It's a name brand.

It was hard for one person alone to assemble and the directions provided could have been clearer. would certainly not recommend but I guess I am stuck with it, since I don't want to go through the return process. Also, there were quite a few dings in the tv stand.

This product was exactly what we needed for my son's apartment so that he could store all of his electronic equipment in a more organized manner. It is very sturdy, but had several nicks and dings, particularly in some of the corners. I realize that is probably a shipping challenge, but it also is a problem with how it is packaged. The color is very dark, probably more black than brown which worked well for our use. The product itself is very good and I'd recommend it. Shipping without damage is the challenge due to the packaging. For the record, the damage was not severe enough that we felt the need to return it, but we did use a black magic marker for some of the repairs. If we had been placing this in a very visible location, it would have been more of a problem.

After building a large fire pit and patio out of field stone, my attention turned to fabricating a wood grate for the pit. While surfing for ideas, I found the already made Uniflame grate and realized it was the exact size and shape I needed. It is heavy and ruggedly built and the design keeps logs from rolling off the edges. Should last for years.

I have ordered this one for a friend but I am using one myself for a few seasons already, and it works fine. Its not a large one, I would say somewhere between small and medium but can help to keep up the fire with no issues, quality wise looks solid.

If you're looking for a bellow for the fireplace or camping (as I was) this is a great, reasonably priced option. Works great. Used it for a camping trip to keep the fire oxygenated and going and it did a terrific job. It looks good, too. If you were using it for a fireplace in a home, it would work well and look very nice.

This bellow certainly has lung enough to encourage a timid fire. Anybody with a wood stove or fireplace will find it more helpful than getting light-headed when you DYI. It's also great for discouraging house cats from unsavory activities.

Honest reviews on Panacea Products 15312 Fireplace Bellows, Large

Metal tube (front tip) came right off the base.

The packaging could have been sturdier (i.e. box) versus a bubble bag. Not sure what the maker [or shipper] was thinking of when they mailed this product out. Actually, I do... Money! No packaging at all with the product other than a product tag.

To conclude, it is my opinion the product is not well built. The metal tube fell right off the wood bellow. I never had a chance to even try it out.

This is my first bellow and it has been a great relief not to have to kneel and put my face near the fire to get it roaring again, however, After only a few weeks of use the leather (bonded I think) has begun to wear a hole in the side facing the user so not only is there a drop in the pressure toward the fire but the person pumping gets a little blast with every stroke. Nothing that a little duct tape can't fix but I would have hoped for better.

I paid $187 and I have a "repaired" fireback.

I guess someone else returned it, or they just messed this one up, and someone repaired it w/ putty or caulk.

Looks like junk, even tho' I paid full price!

I attempted to contact Minuteman International via Amazon.com AND tried to contact

M.I. via their website, but no response.

This ain't rocket science...the only way you screw this up is getting the wrong size for your fireplace. Quality, thick construction should last longer than your house. I burn a fire every night in winter and this definitely protects the back as it was designed to do....500 years ago.

It reflects a decent amount of heat, but it did not "wow" me, hence not 5 stars. I have not tried other fire backs though so it might be that my expectations were unreasonable.
