Over the years, we've migrated away from firepots. We're pretty happy with the Sievert S1K, but it's pricey and a bit delicate. THe Sievert ESK series are a bit cheaper, and I like the looks of the Stortz unit as well as the express. Does anyone have feedback on these various models?

i have ben using an acetyline outfit from hado for years now and love it. when soldering lots of copper flatlock i never have to wait for the heat to catch up. its the hado or a coal pot for me the only thing i found the propane setups good for is light work like small chimneys and gutter repairs.

The hado was the first one that I tried, but it uses much more gas and doesn't like windy conditions.
