I like my DeWalt. Gets hot as hell, light, and has legs that fold up so it can be free standing.

Agree on the DeWalt. This is the only DeWalt tool I've been happy with (usually buy Milwaukee stuff).

Had a HF gun that worked ok till all the smoke came out of it

I have a Milwaukee, that I would guess is 1980's vintage. I paid $2 for it at the same estate sale that I bought my bench grinder and drill press at. I have had zero problems with it.

Master Appliance ones are pretty tank like.

I went to Farm and Fleet today and picked up the Genesis heat gun. It was on sale for $10.99, I bought two of them, I am taking the second one to work. It isn't something I'm going to be using everyday so for $11 if it tanks it's not a huge loss and it comes with a two year factory warranty. It also came with the deflectors as well.

I'm glad to read that, I was wondering how it would be for $11. It won't see everyday use, either at home or work. Thank you

You spent this long contemplating a $10 purchase?

I can't imagine how long it takes you to order dinner.
