Customer Reviews for VEVOR Propane Forge Portable, Single Burner Tool and Knife Making, Large Capacity Blacksmith Farrier Forges, Mini Furnace Blacksmithing, Gas Forging Tools and Equipment, Complete Kit

I bought this as my first forge and it performs very well. There are considerations and care that must be taken when using it, but this should be expected of any forge at this price point. I coated the firebox using a stiffening spray and then 3-4 coats of refractory cement to isolate and trap the insulation fibers and retain the heat. It's possible to use the forge if you skip this step, but it becomes a respiratory hazard if you're working in an enclosed space and this is true of all mineral wool forges. I also added additional firebricks at the front and rear as doors to further isolate the heat. Again, you can get metal to forging temperature without these, but they will save a lot of fuel and keep your shop much cooler while allowing you to reach higher temperatures. All in all I had no problems with the regulator or burner and once you get it dialed in you can forge some pretty significant pieces in this little thing. I've worked 1/2" square stock and 3/8"x1" flat stock without issue - it will get there if you're patient and running at the right fuel/air ratio. I find I use about 1-2 lbs of propane per hour of forging.

This is the second one of these I’ve bought. I went a little crazy with flux while learning to forge and it ate up my refractory cement. I just bought a new one Vice trying to repair the old one. Works well for smaller projects.

Just got the forge so haven’t set it up yet due to I didn’t realize I needed to order Rigidizer and Refractory Mortar. So add another 50 dollars to set the forge up properly. But the fit and finish of the forge seems well made for a forge in this price range. Very few pieces to put together so assembly is very easy. Shipping was fast and properly packaged with form fitting inserts. Be careful removeing the refractory bricks which are inside the forge along with the regulator not to tear the insulation material. Looking forward to using forge after the furnace box has been prepared properly. But still happy with my purchase.
