I use this to sear my sous vide meats after they are cooked. It works better than any other method i've tried for searing.
Cons
The cone at the end of the burner tube fell off unexpectedly. The cone is apparently a friction fit, no screws, threads, welds or rivets to hold it on. It needs a better connector similar to a gas grille.
Made in china. Appears to be a different manufacturer (greenwood) than advertised, that is distributed to or by harbor freight. My guess is you have all these sellers buying up local stock then reselling on amazon for near double.

The two critiques i have are that it could be a bit longer and the push button starter is a bit sensitive the gas flow has to be just right for it to light
