4 out of 5 stars Quality Product   November 26, 2008
David H. Brown (Greensboro, NC)
I have used this product several times since the original purchase. The results had been very good. I like the case and all the attachments provided. The attachments all have a specific place in the case. The gun heats up very fast. I would like to have seen a 2 speed motor provided with this gun. I previously had a T&B model WT1400 which has a 2 speed motor. I like the 2 speeds but I purchased the Milwaukee for about 50.00 less. Give it a try, I think you will like it!

Mr. G. W. Vaughan Jr. (Newport, NC. USA)
I bought this heat gun for a very specific job. To heat shrink solder several very small wires for a floor heat system. Although I had to buy an extra tip this heat gun worked vey well.It cost a little more than some but it is top of the line. And you get what you pay for. This heat gun will last for many years.


5 out of 5 stars Very versatile with a multitude of uses   January 28, 2008
Sammy G. Duncan (newtown, pa)
I'm a DIYer and therefore can't speak to the longevity of using this heat gun in day to day work. For the projects that I have needed it for around the house I have found it invaluable. The range of temperature control is excellent and the accesories are very handy. I get the most use from the spreader tip. I always follow the advice listed by some other reviewers and allow the heat gun to run on the cool air setting until it is cool to the touch.

I already had a good heat gun but nothing compared to this one. I ordered a second Milwaukee heat gun.

This is a great tool. It doesn't have the temp gauge like the fancier version, but you can sneak up on the right temp by observation pretty well. It gets HOT! I do wish it had a little protruding stand on one side as part of the case or something, so you could lay it on it's side. You can stand it on the fan end with the wire bracket at the end of the handle, but it tends to fall over with the smallest bump. I will probably rig something up so I can lay it on the side. I like the attachments and the case and the tool is rock solid with a heavy cord. You get what you pay for on this kind of tool.
