Selected User Reviews For Homebasix Fireplace Poker 27", Black
There are three parts to this fire poker: the handle, the shaft, and the poker end. The reason I say this is because these three parts are not as tightly screwed together as they should be. This means that when you try to adjust a piece of wood on the campfire, the handle will often loosen on the shaft, or the poker end will unscrew slightly. ANNOYING! No amount of tightening the tips back onto the shaft seems to keep them in place, so every time I pick up the fire pit to use it, I twist the poker end on the side of the fire pit tight before using it. I'd already considered that this could be a one-off issue, but no such luck. I remembered that I had purchased two of these, and they both have the same flaws, so this is something that needs to be looked into again.
Is this a fire poker that I'm evaluating? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes I felt compelled to tell others about my experience. The metal is of excellent quality and is very durable. The bottom part, which has the actual poker on it, will not. Not. Stay. Screwed. In. Every time I use this poker, I have to re-enter my password. When the thing is hot, twisting the bottom part back on is extremely annoying.
In our class B rv, this was exactly what I needed. Both the poker tip and the handle are detachable, making it easier to transport. So far, it has only been used once, but it was flawless.
This poker appears to be solid steel, but it is actually made up of three steel pieces. Both the handle grip and the poker tip are attached to the rod by screws. I had no trouble putting them on or using the poker strategy; The handle, on the other hand, appeared to be loose and kept unscrewing. People, there's no need to send it back because I just wrap a piece of tape around the rod thread and re-attach it. tightened the grip on the handle I suppose contact cement could be used, but it does not appear to be necessary. I was able to get by with just a smidgeon of black take.
For the price, it's a good deal, though I wish it came in one piece rather than three. The poker, shaft, and handle are all separate pieces that must be assembled by screwing them together. They always seem to loosen on mine, which I use for outdoor campfires, so I'm probably rougher on it than most. br>br>P. If you're going to use it outside, I've found that putting a couple of pieces of reflective tape on the shaft helps you find it in the dark.
Years ago, our old fireplace set was replaced by our firepit, which had a poker. I'm not sure what happened to the poker over the years, but I'm glad I found this nearly identical replacement on Amazon. It's well-made, goes with our existing furniture, and. . . We've already taken it back to the firepit because it works so well. After all, it appears that we will require a second poker.
Great fire poker with a lot of sturdiness.
It's adequate for the price. Because of the poor thread machining, I had to epoxy both ends to the shaft, and the hook came out very crooked. It'll do the job of stoking a fire, which is what it was designed for, but it's a shoddy product.
