Pumpkin Weather Proof Carry-all Log Carrier Reviews

Pumpkin Weather Proof Carry-all Log Carrier
Customer Ratings: 4 stars
Buy Now
This bag quickly becomes limp and wants to stay in a 'closed' position. Need at least two hands to put firewood in this carrier. If it did stay open, it would be great, but sadly, once this bag gets wet, say from sitting it on the ground by your woodpile, the initial rigidity of the fabric disappears, and it becomes a floppy mess. Hem quickly unravelled as well, so the threads are constantly catching on wood, hands, what have you.

This is a great log carrier, it is durable, and holds enough wood to keep the fire going well into the evening. The look of it is nice, it holds it's shape when you stack the wood in it properly (not just throw it in) and makes bringing it back inside very easy and neat. I'm very pleased with this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for a nice Log Carrier.

It was about everything I expected because I read the reviews first. I wanted something that would be very inexpensive, but would serve the purpose. So far I have no complaints I have had several fires in my fireplace and it has served the purpose for which it was intended quite well.

Each piece is a good weight in your hand, the stand is a little unstable but I just set it close to the hearth wall and its ok.Overall I am very happy especially for the price I paid for it.

I also read the reviews on this product before puchasing it. I like to do my research before I buy. It does tip over easly, but you can't beat the value of this product. If you can put it against something solid it doesn't fall over as much. The shovel on this set is better than my mother's set she purchased, and her set was more expensive. On my mother's set the shovel actually broke off. On this set I don't see that happening, as it is thicker and sturdier. Also, if you receive the set and the bristles on the brush are slightly bent, just use a blow dryer on it, and the bristles straighten right out. I love this set, and I would buy it again just for the quality and value.

Best Deals for Uniflame 4-Piece Triple-Plated Fireplace Tool Set

When shopping for a Fireplace Tool Set, my criteria were for it to be simple, devoid of ornate designs. I also wanted a solid black color instead of brass or silver accents. I wanted each piece to be functional, and for the stand to be sturdy and stable while maintaining the smallest footprint possible.

The Uniflame 4-Piece Triple-Plated Fireplace Tool Set met my criteria. I often find that the manufacturer's picture makes the product look better than reality. That is not so with the Uniflame, hence, "what you see is what you get."

The problem with many fireplace tool sets is that the stand is often wobbly. The Uniflame's stand is perfectly stable, and all three pieces fit well and are easily retrieved without knocking off the others.

The non-porous finish makes cleanup easy. I just run a little water over the ashed ends of the poker and shovel and they look as good as new.

Given the low price of the the Uniflame 4-Piece Triple-Plated Fireplace Tool Set, I actually expected the quality to be "cheap". I am glad I took the gamble, as I was pleasantly surprised by the quality.

This item is very attractive, but some of the components (like the small stand), are not very sturdy, hence the 3 stars. The shovel is sturdier than it looks, but I've been very annoyed by how easily knocked over the stand is! If the solid base were just a bit bigger, it would be PERFECT!

Great quality. These look great on the black rocking chairs they were purchased for. Also they are heavy, durable and very cushioned.

Purchased these for my mother, she has a set of rocking chairs that are put out for summer, and brought in (for pulling up to the large hearth) for winter. They were perfect.

FYI:

These are meant to be INDOOR only.

Because of the thickness and the type of cloth these might rot in humid areas or areas where they could get rained on. They are not water repellant.

I generally only leave reviews for the best and the worst products that I buy here on Amazon. Thankfully, this product falls into the former.

I am pretty hard to please in general but this little stove won me over right from the start even while still removing it from it's box.

Growing up in wintry New England, we heated our modest little house in the sticks with wood stoves. This was not without it's unpleasantries. Lugging wood into the cellar and enduring bloody noses and dry skin from the moisture-sucking heated air was never my favorite but I must admit there is nothing like the sound and smell of a wood stove on a cold January night.

After living in Southern California for the last 13 years, I recently grew nostalgic for my childhood. I live in an apartment and a real stove is not possible so I looked for solutions that didn't require venting or actual wood and came across the Duraflame 4600 btu.

It's built solidly, with a nice patina that does resemble an old cast iron stove. It's also a very good size, not too big and not too small. Perfect for the corner of the living room in my 700 sq foot 1 bedroom apartment.

I was rather dubious as to the quality of the 'flames' so I wasn't expecting much when I flipped on the switch (nicely hidden by a solid glass door) to activate them. It turns out they look very realistic. The coals even look convincing. I sat with a glass of wine and watched them dance for at least 30 minutes, happily reminiscing.

After being completely spell-bound, I remembered to test out the heater part finally. It has a blower underneath that directs the heat out the front. I tested underneath, behind, on top, and found no heat except where it should be. That's reassuring to me, knowing that the heat will always be confined to a cone coming from underneath the front.

I even placed a candle on top and left it there for 10 mins. It did not melt at all. It does get hot around the circumference of the bottom surface but that's about it.

All in all, I am extremely satisfied with this product. It's going to be a big hit at my Christmas dinner party. Buy this thing immediately. you won't be disappointed.

I am already showing it off to my neighbors ...

This is a video of my heater. The flames look really real!Everyone who sees it loves it and wants one.I am now able to keep my central heater at 70, and still have a warm home. Heats from the floor up so your feet and legs stay warm, which central heat doesn't always do that well. I absolutely love this heater/fireplace! Perfect size for bedroom, bathroom or small living room(like I have, 20"x20")Why didn't I get one of these sooner!

Update! 1/5/2012...

I had this heater almost a year now. And I just wanted to say...I STILL LOVE IT! Small size, but puts out the heat. I have a 870sq ft home. And this little fireplace keeps at least half of it warm. It may heat all. But I keep the bedroom doors closed dues to little dogs in the home. But the little ones(dogs) all really enjoy the fireplace as well. Bottom line. Get it. You won't be disappointed!

I bought this item yesterday. Ordered it through Northland Metal for $79. Quite nice and compact. You can use the flame/log without turning on the heat.

It gives a very nice fireplace efffect coming from a small stove. The heating element is very powerful and warms up the room quite fast. I bought because of the terrible cold winter we had last year here in Tampa, FL. I suspect it will be another cold few months of temps in the 30s and 20s. So I bought it for that reason. You won't be sorry very nicely made.

Honest reviews on Duraflame Vent-Free Metal Stove - 4600 BTU, 400 Sq. Ft. Heating

I purchased this stove instead of the Dimplex model that is almost identical because I liked the design of the door better and I thought that Duraflame was a respected brand. I know someone that has the Dimplex and absolutely loves it. I read the reviews of the Dimplex and there are tons of them and almost all extremely positive. I thought the fact that there were only a few reviews for this stove might be because it was newer to the market. The stove looks fine. Was delivered in good condition, and is easy to just plug in. No assembly of any kind. The flame is a resonable facsimile of a real fire, so all that is fine. But within a few weeks the motorized parts that rotate to make the look of fire started to make noise. Also, the heat blower makes noise. So the fire plus the blower make some pretty audible noise. If you turn off the heat blower you have what is essentially an annoying noise that actually makes me have to turn the TV up louder. Sometimes the noise gets quiter. Sometimes it gets louder. It would be too much trouble to return it so I'm stuck with it. I'll never order something this large from Amazon again.

This product was a great buy for me. We recently purchase a new bedroom set and the bed is higher now so we need a tv stand that would raise our tv. This was easy to put together one person can do it until you add the tv...all the parts were numbered and it came with extra screws if needed...again great buy

I recently ordered this stand because it was moderately priced. When I received it the packaging was good, really nice size for the limited space I have and the mount part that the TV goes on swivels L/R so that's nice. I had someone put it together for me and he stated that it was quite simple to assemble. Another great buy!

I had this item on my wish list for about 2 weeks debating whether I should buy it or not. Luckily it went on sale at a local store for nearly half this price, so I figured it was a sign to get it. I could not have been happier. When I was first setting it up, I was convinced mt 40" TV would surely tip over the stand, but its been a week and it's holding strong. I love the fact that the TV swivels and looks as if its hanging (I rent, so I'm not allowed to drill any holes) so this is the best possible product I could have asked for!

Honest reviews on Home Source Industries TV12348 Sahara Modern TV Stand with Mount

I needed to replace my TV stand with a smaller one that could still hold a 40" TV to fit into my new smaller apartment. If you need to save space, this is the best stand out there for mid sized TVs (Fits up to 42"). I couldn't believe how fast it showed up. I did standard shipping and it showed up the next day. Unreal.

Assembly seemed intimidating, but like other reviewers have said, it's actually easier than it looks. The one thing I don't like about it is that my TV seems to be tilted toward the floor ever so slightly. When sitting down you don't notice it at all, but looking at it from the side you can tell that the screen does not quite point straight out.

Overall, perfect solution to my space needs and it looks really good.

When we received the first screen, it was damaged...not from shipping, but we think it was from manufacturing or packaging. There was a big hole in the screen, probably from the corners of the box containing the legs (it was precariously taped to the frame of the screen and appears to have been banging around in shipping, causing the hole). Also, the mesh was askew in several places all over the screen. We returned it. Two days later we received the replacement screen. Although there were no holes in the screen, there were about 8-10 places where the mesh was severely askew. We decided to keep the screen and after about 1/2 hour, and destroying one of my chopsticks, I was able to straighten the mesh enough so it is not as noticeable. Definitely NOT worth the money we paid for it. Not even by half, in our opinion.

Honest reviews on Minuteman International X303490 Black Blow Poker

I bought two of these in the same order and neither one of them worked properly. The threaded fittings were loose, making the fit of the two pieces wobbly. Eventually, they both just fell apart. Woodland Direct was really good to deal with and has agreed to refund my money without making me mail the things back. I wish I could say who does make a good blow poke these days, but I am still searching. Too bad Plow and Hearth changed their design. Those were great ones.

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Minuteman International X303490 Black Blow Poker

The blow poker looks good and the "blow" function really helps get a fire going. It ships in 2 pieces with a threaded connection between the lower tube and the handle/mouthpiece. This is a weak point, both in terms of manufacturing tolerances and strength of the poker. We had to replace the first one, which came with the threads stripped. Minuteman was great about doing the replacement no objections and fast service, and the second one fits together snugly. However it will never be a heavy duty poker: neither the thickness of the steel tubing nor the threaded connection are designed for use as a lever on big logs.

To be fair, it isn't priced like a heavy duty unit either. So, as a moderately priced unit for the weekend fireplace user, it's fine.

When we bought our house a few years back it had a gas log fireplace. Not long ago I removed the gas log and then had a professional come in and remove the piping so it was no longer in the fireplace. I called a local chimney place and had them inspect the fireplace to make sure it was safe for burning. They said everything was fine, but a common occurrence in newer houses is the opening is too big for the fireplace and you get smoke roll out. He said ours looks like it was too big and if we experienced this problem we would need to buy a "smoke guard".

Sure enough, the first time we burnt real wood we had more smoke in the house than probably up the chimney. You could easily see the smoke rolling out of the fireplace. I picked this unit up, it took about 3 minutes to install, and then built a fire not many days later. Problem completely gone.

The way our fireplace is designed (the fancy doors whatever they are called) did not allow me to use the sealant that came with the device; there was nothing for it to stick to. Regardless, this was enough to fix my problem because it made the overall opening smaller. I sure wish I could have used the sealant, but it worked without it.

This item has so improved the functioning of our fireplace! Our fireplace didn't always smoke, but we had to be very careful about making certain the fire was always pushed way back up against the rear wall, for if it burned towards the front of the grate, we would get some smoke roll out, and then we had to open a window just a crack to increase the draft. Since installing this item (I got the 4 inch) the fireplace has worked so dependably with no smoking whatsoever! Just the other day I commented to my mate how wonderfully this addition to the fireplace works, and how truly satisfied I am with this purchase. A great investment. Although the brass is probably "pretty" by itself, I'm really glad we chose the black version because even though it's mounted right at the front of the opening, it is virtually invisible, whereas the brass would be more on display. Probably that would be nice, but we are very pleased with the black. Also, I had considered getting the widest (highest) piece since I was making the purchase, but I am very glad that I did NOT get that highest one. This 4 inch high one works perfectly, and it is practically invisible, and does not hide the fire at all whereas the tallest one would have. I don't think I would have been happy with that height, but then I'm sure others may have differently shaped fireboxes and that height would be needed. Our firebox was much wider than it was tall so this one worked best.

I recommend this great item to anyone who has a smoking fireplace. It will really help.

We bought this item originally as an inexpensive, alternative heat source in the Winter, when we can lose electricity for hours, even days, when a bad storm rolls through.

It quickly became our main heat source -as unlike the two, 15,000 btu, electric space heaters we'd been using -this can heat a cold room within 30 minutes. And, all by itself, heats the entire house better than those two other heaters running together. And we only once turned it to the third setting. It usually stays on 1.

To clarify, we live in a very small space: 750 square feet in a very old, single-wide, with windows that no longer seal well. The weather here is moderately cold -we drop into the teens rarely, but stay solidly in the mid 20s-early 30s at night in winter. Days stay in the 30s. With the exception of if we have one of those storms, then all bets are off.

We ran this, with a little supplementary electrical heat during the day -I suspect if we'd got the 30,000 btu one, it would have heated the house completely, even on the colder days.

We don't run it at night, as it's in the living room. And because we're a little chicken of running propane when we sleep. But, in the morning, it brings the room quickly back to toasty -never more than 30 mins.

We installed it ourselves -with a bit of help from my uncle. Runs with two 50 lb=10 gal tanks. One tank lasts just about a week in the colder weather, and costs $24 to fill. So it's only a hundred a month -half what our heating bill was last year.

Last year, even with 3, electric, 15,000 btu heaters running, the house was never as toasty warm as it is with this propane heater.

Only note: If you use the tanks, only turn the knob slightly on. We found it eats through propane quicker if turned fully on. But has no apparent ill effect if the tank is only barely turned on.

And?

The blue flames are just lovely. :)

Highly recommended!

This has been a good little heater for me so far, I am using to heat a fish house. I'm not sure about the review stating that it need to be professionally installed though, to connect it to a 20 lbs cylinder (BBQ tank) you need buy a separate house with a regulator. It is available through Mr. Heater, part # F273072 (12' Propane Hose/Regulator Assembly), I purchased this at my local hardware store.

My only complaint on this heater is that the built in fan doesn't move any air. I'm not even sure why they put it in there, because it really doesn't do anything. I just bought a separate fan to circulate the air and have been pleased with it.

I recently installed this unit in my two car attached garage. I ran black pipe through the wall and attached it to a 20lb LP tank from my grill until I can get a bigger tank. The unit puts out good heat. It comes on at full so dont think you can adjust the output. But what it does do is bring the room up to temp then cycle off per the thermostat. Has some odor but I think that will disapate as it ages and burns off any newness. Battery operated ignition works very well. The only fault I find is the fan. It appears big enough but does not move a lot of air, design flaw perhaps. What it does do well is cycle on and off on it's own if you put it on the auto setting, good feature. I have not had it long enough to determin the gas usage, have my fingers crossed on that one. Overall I am very pleased as it out performs my electric ceiling mounted heater as well as a 23000 btu kerosene heater.
