Price range: See on Amazon

What we liked

  • + Two heat modes: the 500°F low setting suits smoothing wax tops, while 842°F is there for shrink wrap and other packing jobs
  • + Built-in overload protection cuts power when the gun overheats, and the listing names candle making among its uses
  • + Pencil-shaped body weighs 0.83 lb, with a 4.9-foot cord and a stand for hands-free cooling between passes

Trade-offs

  • - Even the low 500°F mode is far hotter than wax needs, so it has to be kept moving and held back from the surface
  • - The listing warns of light smoke on first use from the coil coating, and only one reflector nozzle is included
