The smelter works as it should.The reason for the one star is the honey comb that sits inside was broken.

I bought this for my husband as a Christmas gift and he is so excited about it. It did come with a broken base plate but the issue was resolved quickly and efficiently through Amazon and the seller. Assembly was easy and seems to function as it should so far. The heat retention seems to be better than that of an electric furnace and a nice size for starting out

I am still in the process of preparing the furnace for use, but thus far have no complaints. The included ceramic honeycomb pad arrived broken, but I contacted Molten Masters for a replacement pad, and they sent it out the next day, with VERY good communication throughout the process. I expect the furnace to be problem-free going forward. One tip - the refractory insulation that comes with the furnace really needs to be prepared before use with a rigidizer solution, and then once that is completely dry and the wool is rigid, a thin layer of refractory cement should be applied over the wool. This will prevent tiny fibers of the insulation from breaking off and becoming airborne during use - you REALLY do not want to be breathing those in. Ideally a kit should include the rigidizer and refractory cement, but at this price I am not complaining about having to buy it separately. I would also recommend picking up a sturdier set of tongs, as the provided set will work, but aren't ideal. All in all I'm happy with my purchase, and can recommend this product.

This is a really nice kit. I’m not sure if these reviews cover all the sizes, but I got the 12kg kit, and it’s great. I have a lot of brass that I’ve saved up over the years, and so far I’m about 30 lbs into making ingots, and it’s been flawless. The tongs are stronger/better than I expected, and handle 15lbs of melted brass, plus the heavy crucible no problem. I feel like the propane usage is what I expected, and very reasonable. I just did a pour today, and it was 20 degrees outside, and it all worked great.

It heats up quickly and has a stable temperature, making it very suitable for personal metal melting enthusiasts. Last time, I used it to melt several pieces of aluminum alloy at home. It is easy to operate, and its protective design makes me feel very safe when using it. The tools in the kit are also very comprehensive, including a melting furnace, aluminum melting tongs and a casting mold, which is very cost-effective.

Heated it for the third time today and did get my job done and the furnace looks no worse for wear. No complaints. The crucible that comes with it, however, totally disintegrated on the third use. I had to attempt to pour my copper with the crucible falling apart.Edit: the crucible damage was most likely my own fault as I’ve since learned how to properly temper a crucible. I just didn’t do this one correctly.
