Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of BonJour Professional Chef's Torch
Customer Review: For us it wouldn't shut off.
Summary: 1 Stars
We got this as a gift, and had a completely different problem that the other reports. Our torch wouldn't turn off! Following the instructions for turning it off didn't have much of an effect. The flame kept on burning for at least 30 seconds or so. It would eventually go out, but there was still the hissing sound of escaping gas, so we didn't want to leave it just sitting in the kitchen. The igniter would then cause spurts of flame to appear. I finally decided to leave it outside the house so that the butane wouldn't accumulate indoors. Unfortunately, it seems to have quite a gas capacity.Customer Review: Chef's Torch Was Defective
Summary: 1 Stars
This torch was great for the few seconds that it actually worked. It would sear pepper skins marvelously for 30-60 seconds and then just shut off. Either the stop would be spontaneous or the safety lock would click up and shut the torch off. It then could not be turned on until a 10 minute or so cooldown had been allowed. Then the torch could be turned on and another 30 seconds or so of operation enjoyed. Overall, a disappointing item.Customer Review: Glad I bought it
Summary: 5 Stars
I just about didn't purchase this torch based upon the only customer review available. But knowing Amazon's great customer service, I decided to chance it as it seemed like a fantastic value. And I'm glad I did. It is a great torch and I can only think that the other reviewer might have received one with a defect or she isn't operating it correctly. It performs as advertised and is a great value! I would most definitely recommend it.
