Complete and utter rubbish. The trolley is not even suitable for
carrying a canister of gas let alone a bottle because it's just not
made well at all. A sack barrow design would have been better. Very
poor welding ensured it was next to useless.

The flame gun itself seemed OK but the ignition is very suspect
(piezo)

As for burning weeds? Funnily enough some weeds just don't burn and
even more just don't die for long. Not to mention the damage to
insects like ladybirds and the like. All in all don't waste your
money. I was told the cansiter weed wands were useless, but the big
boy is too.

Think I might try spraying petrol/vinegar/diesel on the gravel drive.
I made three test areas and all seem clear a week later.

Any issues with this do you think?


Hazards with petrol dousing seem to speak for themselves. If you fancy being
in the centre of a volatile explosive cloud then fire away (pun intended).
In the case of any injury/ damage, I think that a case for gross negligence
is pre-proven. It only takes one spark!

Diesel also is inflammable, though far less so than petrol. You may find it
damaging to vehicle tyres, as well as turning your drive into a potential
skidpan. It is intended to drive vehicles, not to be released into the
environment in it's raw state. You may well find another prosecution in the
offing in case of it's entry into watercourses, public roads etc. It's
effect on tarmac is quite quickly damaging.

As for the vinegar I have doubts about it's efficacy.

What's wrong with one of the established weedkiller chemicals if you must.
