screwfix incinerator review

www.screwfix.c...
Perfect for burning a wide range of garden waste. Ventilation holes at the base ensure efficient combustion and holes around the body accelerate burning
(In this video I measured this conference not the diameter)

[@thebargeboard]

That’s not the diameter , you measured the circumference

[@GHasRandoms]

thebargeboard thank you I will edit the description

[@Ukwemustcarryonok]

Mine OK won't say brand I have o near it, I have water and fire extinguisher near it. I bring out box paper pre start and matches and wear gloves, little breeze and a seat quite away and sit or stand there and don't leave it don't go toilet stay there mine ok. Saved a fortune put lid on helps and poker i have a smaller one so fill it half and warm by body. Once it's cooled down and dry a few weeks later will empty wash dry abd cover you have to look after it and there is products to paint or maybe buy 2 for safety. I have everything outside a distance away before lighting and stay there, plus flask of hot drink and phone. But don't leave it alone

The diameter of a circle is any straight line segment that passes through the center of the circle and whose endpoints both lie on the circle.

[@onetech3984]

he is stating the circumfrence it is not the diameter

[@johnr9126]

I just got one today but mine is fine the legs are in the right place

[@GHasRandoms]

Maybe was a bad batch at the time.

[@shaneatkin4007]

Stability point I agree same with mine from homebase but disagree with your diameter measurement as that was circumference bud

[@GHasRandoms]

It was too late to edit the video but did remove from the description

[@denewman746]

Right how do u put 3rd leg on there no holes in my one just holes for 2

[@GHasRandoms]

@@denewman746 if you have a drill maybe you can fit it. There very badly made

[@MrChrissy1r]

You measured the circumference, not the diameter! The diameter is straight across the centre. Also these are thin tinny and rust like mad after the first use as the galvanising is not even in the least bit intended to withstand heat. Furthermore the legs are far too short, so if standing on concrete or paving there is a very good chance of it blowing under the heat, and of course if in grass, it will burn it away. Overall a poor idea, badly thought out, and a poor concept!

[@GHasRandoms]

Thank you for the time to view the video. This was pointed out and addressed in previous comments

[@Dave_Aviation_]

So is it safer to use it with the lid on or off? Surely the lid needs to stay on??

[@GHasRandoms]

Lid on. But best to leave it off until well lit.

[@Dave_Aviation_]

@GHasRandoms Cheers pal 👍🏻

[@jaggass]

I used house bricks to keep my incinerator nice and stable.

[@corringhamdepot4434]

These incinerators don't last very long once they start rusting after the galvanising has burnt off. So I save the 3 legs to add to the next one I buy. Which makes it pretty stable.

[@GHasRandoms]

It’s been a few years with light use and my ones still going.

[@Slicef]

I have a garden galvanized bin with leaves in it , but to frightened to burn anything in it because it doesn't have any holes, and in my shed there is a kind of tool with lots of holes shaped like a lamp with lots of holes , but don't know what it is for?

[@shaunsautorepairs5410]

Your right about stability..especialy after youve used it a few times and it distorts. I always use at least four bricks under it..
The other issue i found is that the first time you use it the galvanised coating runs off and after that it goes rusty...

[@SixtyTwoEleven]

Jake the Peg springs to mind......probably not allowed to mention that anymore though :-)

[@magicsupamoggie]

I use these incinerators all the time. I have done for years. yes you do need to be careful not to knock them over but I cant say Ive had any problems

[@KobiRohman]

Good to know ! looking to buy one of these soon.

[@GHasRandoms]

Without the extra leg I put on it’s it’s dangerous. You could maybe put a brick or something to help it

[@KobiRohman]

@@GHasRandoms cheers mate! I have a few bricks / slabs will use them to keep it from tipping over

[@arifrafique1439]

Daft question i have yet to use mine. Does the ash fall through the bottom holes and fly around the garden?

[@GHasRandoms]

You will get some but it also depends on the weather how windy it is if it’s a calmer day not so much

[@arifrafique1439]

@@GHasRandoms ok thanks for reply

[@Katherine-zp4bq]

Thanks.

[@mssburr]

Looks like one of the metal garbage cans from walmart that someone added legs and pushed up and hole in the middle of the lid..lol

[@spy1641]

I want one
