Quality heat gun. I used to go thru 2 to 3 heat guns from the big box stores each year. Bought this in march of 2023 and still going strong. Gets used a half dozen times a week and is holding up well. I am very careful to run this unit with the heating element in the off position several minutes after each use until no hot air comes out each and every time i use it. If and when this thing finally quits working I will definitely buy another Master heat gun. Good quality item

You can buy heat guns at the hardware store for cheaper, but after you burn through two or three of them, you’ll want one of these. I’ve used ones nearly identical to this since I was a student. Every lab uses these because they last. I decided to try my hand at bending pvc board and toasted the last hardware store cheapie that I will ever own. This one did the trick. It takes a fair amount of time to get the trim hot enough, but it will work and this hot air gun won’t melt down (literally) on you. Plastic cased hot air guns just can’t handle the heat. The manual lists replacement parts. These hot air guns are durable and are worth fixing if they should ever fail. I’ve used ones like this that were over thirty years old. This is a worthwhile investment in a world full of cheap junk.

I use a heat gun at my job every day HEAVILY! (6 day work weeks) I've bought dozens of heat guns. From complete garbage $30 heat guns, to ridiculously expensive Steinel heat guns. This heat gun has lasted me the longest and is still going. I've currently been using it for 8 months and it shows no signs of letting up. The only downside? A bit heavy with the metal housing, but it's totally worth it to not deal with brittle, plastic nonsense. I'll update this review when it gives out.Update: After a year and a half, I had my first problem with the heat-gun. There was a loose connection in the male plug from pulling it around and getting it caught on things this whole time. I replaced the male plug for a few bucks and it's still going strong.2nd update: I no longer use this heat gun as heavily as I've changed trades. I used this thing heavily everyday for 2 years and 4 months. It's still going strong. The quality of this heat gun is light years above the competition.

Won’t even cause heat shrink to shrink. My father in law blows hotter air than this “heat gun”. I called the company to get a refund and the lady on the other end of the phone was like “ yeah. That model doesn’t get very hot. You should’ve bought a higher up model”. For over 100 dollars, I think it’s reasonable to expect a heat gun to at LEAST melt heat shrink. For crying out loud, a hair dryer can do that.

Right out of the box the tool seems quite daunting. I thank it is just cause it is sturdy and solid. The only quam I have is that there isn't a list on or w/ the product that tells you the temperature for each number.

I bought this to replace another brand, which died after 8 or 10 years. These are more money, but hold up wonderfully. Well worth the extra money for Made in the USA quality!

Just recieved this, used it for one task, no issues. But if weight has anything to do with quality this one tops the chart. I have owned or used 6-8 heat guns over the years and this one probably weights twice as much as any other, nice. Cool down was almost instant. Would give it 5 stars if I owned and used it for more than 5 minutes

We like the robust design and build. We weren't too crazy about the price; but you get what you pay for.We use this heat gun for heating metal parts where a torch would be inadvisable or unsafe. and also for heat-shrinking insulation sleeving.
