Customer Reviews for VEVOR Electric Melting Furnace, 3KG Digital Electric Melting Furnace, 1750W 1150℃/2102 ℉ Gold Smelter Furnace W/ Graphite Crucible & Ingot Die for Processing of Melting Gold, Silver, Copper, Alumin

I’m new to melting metals and was looking for a deep graphite mold to mess around with. This worked perfect for me. It’s really good quality and can hold a lot!

I'm using the graphite form to consolidate spare metals into blocks for storage to later be used for sand casting. It is super easy to pour into and can hold a lot of metal, which is great so I can melt down lots of small pieces into one big one. The form is solid and standing up well to the high temperature of liquid brass which I have used so far (I use a forge for melting). After cooling, the blocks aren't getting stuck and slide out without issue. All in all, I'd say this is great for my use and can highly recommend for metalcasting!

I love this VeVor Melting furnace! I generally use Propane canisters to solder, and I'm very limited to the amount of silver I can melt and reprocess. This furnace melted 3 oz with no trouble at all, and I had a great pour into the ingots! So worth the money to reprocess my silver and gold!

Works well for making bronze which is at the limits of its melting temp.Only downside is it takes roughly 2 hours to reach 1100C meaning you get one bronze pour per 3 hour operating cycle. however gold and silver melt at lower temperatures than copper alloys which is what this is really designed for.I’ve done 10+ 3kg melts working on a bronze project. If I didn’t use the crucible as a slow cool mold to eliminate pour porosity it likely would of lasted 20-30 melts.The crucibles themselves are sturdy with good lifespan but are limited just like any other. Graphite is pure carbon meaning it slowly burns away as it’s used and is prone to cracking under impact.

1st time Smelting copper, had a great experience and fun doing so. I have quite a bit of copper to go. Could have had better instructions.

Works great for melting fine (raw) gold and gold jewelry such as bracelets, earrings, rings. Gets to temperature for melting gold relatively quick

Great for melting Metals.

Great product for the price! Bought to melt copper unfortunately it DOES reach temp yet it takes 2+hrs to melt by time its ready to melt it nedds to be shut down! I will say alluminum will melt super easy and lower melt metals! I returned mine due to needing a higher temp but respect the product!

Should come with a second crucible.

GOOD PRODUCT FOR THE PRICE
