VEVOR Electric Melting 3KG+1KG, 2102℉/1150 Smelting Furnace Kit with Graphite Crucibles for Gold, Silver, Copper, Aluminum, Black

Got exactly what I ordered even delivered a day early. Works great heats up fast melts silver fast and evenly 100% satisfied

This thing was super easy too set up out of the box it's built like a.tank and is surprisingly big sized it's still functioning after a LOT of my abuse haha super durable and a.great use of money

I will preface this with the fact that I have my doctorate in metallurgy, this is not my first melt. I was really excited to be able to do some casting at home, and have had good luck with the brand so far, so I thought I would give this a try. I preheated the crucible to 500 for 30 minutes, added some copper, brought it to 900, let it dwell for 30 minutes and then brought it up to 1100. Melting of the copper started and I wanted to ensure it was fully melted so I checked again about 15 minutes and noticed re-solidification. I turned off the heater and let it cool to about 500C and pulled the crucible out. Picture above showing the copper made its way down to the thermocouple and destroyed the ceramic base plate. True shame.

Love this thing. I have used bigger propane versions and this is so much easier to use. Love the digital controls. Makes casting jewelry and coins so much easier

I bought this melting machine and look good but too small for my purposes but the seller is great and quick responding…. So 5 starts for him but I can’t rate the product since I won’t be available to used and I got refunded my money.
