Welded my plastic panel

I used this to weld the plastic panel on my GMC Suburban. I also used plastic sticks to secure the dashboard. It was easy to use and I only managed to burn myself a little. I'm not sure how well the plastic will hold up in the desert heat, but this handy tool worked non-stop for over 6 hours and melted the plastic like butter!

Pros
  • Best in the niche
Cons
  • So far so good

Tip breaks easily

I liked the design and the price when I first bought it, but this item is junk. I've been using commercial welders at work and needed something for a few cracks in my HDPE canoe. This lasted 30 minutes before the triangular head came off. I had to finish the top hat project! I will say that it warmed up to the right temperature. But after about 10 minutes of use, the tip started to bend. I am not sure if this product is suitable for anything more than small tacking.

Pros
  • Solid construction
Cons
  • Doubtful

The quality of the materials for the tip

Used this item to try and fix a large water tank. After reading the instructions and watching a few videos, I patched the tear. This worked great for the first pass, but after the iron cooled down and came back later. I heated up the iron and started to work, but the tip broke off right in the appliance. I found that his special iron drills a hole in the tip insert to insert the screw that holds the tip. The metal around the screw was chipping causing the tip to fall off, very poor quality…

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

For what it is and how much it costs, it's really good. There is no heat adjustment and it seems like there are quite a few options for different hot boots. I bought it to do home repairs on some of the kayaks I received. I have a hot air plastic welder at work, but it needs an air compressor. Let it warm up, heat the surface to be repaired and the putty material and start introducing a new one into the repair area. I had to build up the tail section from all the wear and tear. My only…

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Big and chunky

Works great, maybe not for much longer.

Good for kayak welding, but the material loosens when hot, so don't press too hard during use, the "iron" part of the welder will bend back and the metal begins to separate. I expect it to only last a few long uses before failing (breaks). You don't have to press hard on most of the weld, but smoothing the edges at the end definitely helps. Not sure if it's a weak metal or too flimsy but definitely makes durability an issue. The included welding wires aren't super hard polyethylene, but they…

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • No.

DO NOT BUY: Welding and Soldering

I was hoping it wasn't as bad as some of the Top Flex reviews are suggesting. I bought it hoping to fix a canoe but decided to fix a small tank first. I managed to repair and even strengthen the tank with the help of 2 vendor sticks. Even with the slightest pressure, the tip was bent. I received a message from the seller asking about my experience and my concerns about what I intend to use it for prior to writing this review. They reported that this tool is not intended for repairs like canoes,

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Fixing my Rotoplas Tinaco

I have a 1100 liter Rotoplas Tinaco that was used in construction work on a site without water. The crew did not build a solid platform for him and after filling 1100 liters he caved in and fell three feet full of water to the ground. It tore a pretty decent hole in the bottom corner and a few small ones on the side where it was bent. It sat unused in the corner of the yard for about a month while I overcooked the damage and then I stumbled across this pup on Revain. I ordered it and followed…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Crazy. Saved me $2,000 on a bumper repair

Bought this on sale for $20 a few months ago. It was a bargain and I can't believe I didn't buy it sooner or that it hasn't been used in 4 months. I used it 2 days ago to repair a front bumper stay for my Audi A4. It came loose and the bumper was no longer attached. I reinforced the mesh and melted it into the back of the bumper. I then used some of the supplied material to add extra coverage/smooth detail. It was quite a difficult angle to work with. I didn't think I was squeezing hard, but…

  • change price

I should have gotten one of those welders a few years ago.

I should have gotten one of those plastic welders years ago. I have tried countless times to glue broken plastic together without success. This welder really works. The included stainless steel mesh allows you to reinforce the repair by making it stronger than it was originally. Parts I used to break I can now fix! Some people have complained about the tip bending. This is what happens when you press too hard. My advice is to let the tool do its job. Make sure it heats up for at least 5-10…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Can't remember
