UniFlame5-Piece Fireplace Tools Set with Ball Handles, Black

I bought this earlier this year. The tools are acceptable. The set took two weeks to arrive. When I tried to assemble it, the yoke (part that holds the tools) was defective. There was excess metal flashing on one of the prongs so none of the tools could be hung there. I called the manufacturer. They offered to replace it. Two weeks later, I had a new yoke... also defective. This one had extreme pitting and missing metal. I called them again. They offered to send a third part. Two weeks later, I had a third defective yoke. This one had the same problem as the first one. You couldn't hang the tools from it because of excess metal. Rather than get another defective part from the company, I decided to fix it myself. I bought a metal file set and a can of black spray paint, filed down one of the yokes, painted it, and now I have a working file set. The cost of the tools and paint is less than the additional cost of the next cheapest tool set.You get what you pay for. If you don't mind fixing this product yourself, it's probably a good buy. If you want a well-made set, you'll have to look elsewhere. And pay a lot more.

I got these for 17 dollars in the off season. That's a fair price. If I'd paid more than 20 bucks for them in November or something I'd have been MAD. These are small. For a pyro like me and someone WELL acquainted with fire and fire tools, this is like "baby's first fire set". They are short, about 2ft long so you're not gonna reach way in there from a nice safe distance. They're not well made. You have to screw on the handles, the broom is plastic. I gave this 3 stars because they're small and cheap but still functional. Especially if you've got a little fireplace in a little apartment or something. This is 20 dollar fire poker set you'd see at the front of a grocery store in winter next to stove top stuffing and instant apple cider mix. Don't give more than a Jackson for these.

The Fire set is very nice. The stand screws into the base and does not tighten down, I presume so that the stand can turn in the base.There is nothing wrong with the stand turning in the base. I would prefer that the stand fit more tightly into the base. Or the turning mechanism could be made to turn and not lean some.As I said, I like the set very well.

I spent weeks researching fireplace sets for my husband. Initially, I ordered a set that was wrought iron and quite a bit more expensive. When that set arrived, I was shocked to find that the black paint was actually chippped on several of the items. Fortunately, Amazon is a wonderful company, and quickly issued a return label so I could ship it back. I subsequently chose this set as a replacement. It is wonderful, and my husband couldn't be happier. The pieces are very solid and feel good in the hand. They are also quite functional, particularly the gripper, which is useful for picking up and arranging hot pieces of wood. Additionally, the set looks lovely in my den. Very happy with this purchase and I would recommend this set to anyone searching for fireplace tools.

I received this in a timely fashion but upon opening the shovel had a large dent with flakes of paint coming off. They were very nice and returned my item with no problems but I wish there was a way we could have just kept the set and gotten a new shovel instead of returning everything and having to repurchase. Overall this seems like a quality set for the price but there was no damage to the box so obviously quality control isn't real great.

Used these tools now for 3+ months with my high efficiency wood stove. Build quality is "mostly" good. The broom unit brushes were a little compressed (skewed to one side) like it had been left to sit on them too long. Only issue experienced is that either the handle or bottom hook of the log poker loosens after a couple of uses. I will have to put some lock-tight or something similar on it. I only hand tightened (i.e. didn't use pliers) during initial assembly as to avoid scratching the tools. Shovel is sturdy and log "tongs" are useful as well. Admittedly, I use the shovel, broom and poker the most. Overall I'm quite happy with the purchase.

this set was purchased to replace one that we had used for many years. I like everything about this set, the rods are sturdy,the log tongs are robost enough to actually turn a log (something my old set lacked) and the stand is very stable. So why not 5-stars? The handles, very heavy cast metal, but rough. I had to file burrs off of two of them that were sharp enough to cause pain when gripping the handle. Don't let this stop you from buying, the price is right, and overall well made, just make sure you have a file handy.

We bought this tool set for our fireplace more as a decorative item since we have gas logs. If using in a regular fireplace I have no doubt that the sturdy case tools would hold up well. The only downside is the broom is a little flimsy with teh bristles. I'm sure it will work for my needs but not so sure about long term if I was burning real logs.
