There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The tool was advertised as the perfect tool for beginners, and that is a very accurate description of it. It was very easy to set up and use. While the placement of the on/off switch was a little awkward (almost right in the middle of the power cord), it did not make the tool any more difficult to use—just be mindful about where you set up to work.
The tool came with 4 screw-in tips, and I found the easiest one to use was the flow tip. Some other reviewers mentioned that their tips broke off inside the tool, but I have had no issues with mine so far. I would recommend waiting until the tips cool in order to minimize the chance of this happening.
There is most definitely a learning curve with the tool. Because it is a beginner’s type of tool, there was no temperature control, which was a hindrance at times—I had to be very aware of how long I applied the tool to the wood in order to maintain an even looking burn pattern.
One minor drawback to the tool was the grip, which consists on very fine raised lines on the body of the tool behind the heat guard. It seems impractical to have such an uncomfortable grip on a tool that is meant for detailed (and therefore time consuming) work. However, any other person can modify their grip so that they do not squeeze tightly.
Overall, I would say that this tool is great for beginners to see if they have an interest in woodburning as a craft. Its price lends well to experimenting with a new hobby, and the package comes with a good variety of tips to play around with. My tool has lasted a few months with no major issues; the minor one does not outweigh the overall quality of the product, nor does it affect how the woodburnings come out.
If you're not sure woodburning will be your thing, or you don't expect to woodburn very often, this tool is probably sufficient for occasional or temporary use.
If you're really into woodburning, looking for a great tool, long-lasting, versatile, comfortable to use, for more professional looking results, add the word "professional" to your search and prepare to pay $150 or more. It'll be worth it.
As recommended on the package, use pliers to change the tips.

Lo que no le gusto es que no trae una bolsita o algo para guardar las demás puntas para trabajar
La base hay que tener mucho cuidado porque se puede perder fácil

Non vi posso spiegare quanto mi sento deluso da questa esperienza.
GUARDA COM'È ARRIVATA IL PACCO! In una busta. Il confezione già aperta da tempo; Si vede dal colore della cartone e colla. Pezzi piccoli liberi nella busta.
Non ho ancora provato il prodotto perchè devo trovare un trasformatore giusto.
In genere i prodotti di Walnut Hallow sono buoni. Pero devono aggiungere più informazione e foto, per dare più dettagli sul prodotto.
Uffa.
