Angel's Review of Soto Pocket Torch XT
So as far as I know this company makes two different mini butane torches. This one and the other one that uses disposable lighters.
The other one is amazing and works great.
This one is flimsy and cheap and mine stopped working within the first week of moderate use.
The extendable neck was really the only reason to buy it but the neck is flimsy and feels like it's going to break off at the lightest pull or drop.
The body feels like cheap, brittle plastic.
The button to turn it on feels like low quality. Refilling it wasn't too hard but adjustments suck. Low setting doesn't light up or keep a flame. Medium and high mode worked but only for a day or two.
I'm not sure if I got a defective lighter or if quality control isn't doing their job but mine stopped working in less than a week of light to moderate use. Go buy the other mini torch instead.
Lastly. It's too expensive for what it is. This should be $5.
