Customer Reviews
great idea!!
I am enjoying using the weed dragon. It took some practice for me to learn to use it without leaving weeds behind or scorching my plants. Weeds take longer to regrow than when pulling them by hand. I now only weed by hand close to the plants and use the weed dragon everywhere else.
It doesn't say in the ad, but you need to use a refillable gas bottle with this model. I had an extra one from an old grill and a dolly to strap it onto, so I was all set to use it right away. If I had to buy those two items as well, it would be quite an expense.

Weeds are Gone
Weeding the yard took days, now it was done in less than two hours and no returns yet. Even did the gutters in the street, neighbors have since borrowed the FLAME THROWER as the kids call it and cleaned up their yards. It is now an neighborhood asset.

Good, but too powerful!
The product seems to be of good quality and works well (a little too well). However a 100K BTU is probabaly too much for the average suburban user. When turned on 'full blast' The cone of flame covers a good 12 inch area, and the kill area is probabaly another 6-12 inches. If I throttle it down to 'low' it seems to work better, but it is still a little much for 'spot treating' weeds on my quarter acre suburban lawn.

You May Not Have Thought About This
I have pine trees next to the rocks around the house. This thing is great at burning the dried pine needles without disturbing the rocks. No bending over, messing up the rocks, etc. Easy to use product.

Great Product
Great for destroying small areas of weeds. I purchased the torch for clearing out some stinging nettles and it did wonders. Needed to burn the nettles twice, about 5 days apart, to totally kill the plant. With a little practice, using the torch can become surgical in killing weeds around the plants you want to keep. If looking to clear larger areas, like bigger than say 10 x 20, a bigger torch might be easier and faster to use. Over long periods of use, hands become somewhat strained due to the straight angle of the handle. For easy mobility, I straped the propane tank to a 2 wheel hand truck and rolled it to where ever I needed to. Overall, a great purchase that will gets tons of use on my 7 acres.
