Ordered the dual torch model with the 6 blocks of Maxwell crack filler. 6 blocks came in 2 days, machine in about 10 days. Put together machine in about 3hrs. Instructions aren’t very good, but workable. Only came with one torch, but their customer service is EXCELLENT and sent the second torch to me AND refunded the difference. Takes about 45min to fully melt a block. With the foam covered Maxwell blocks you put the whole thing in and it melts the foam as well. I sealed huge cracks in an asphalt tennis court with this thing in about a day. Quote was over 10K, so this was a bargain.

when we received parts , not a whole assembled machine, we explained we could not assemble.They kindly assembled and delivered free.They are ready to be helpful.They seemed awfully busy, cause they do not answer nor respond many times. But keep trying. they will help what you need.Good Service.

We got a quote of $18,000 for a contractor to come in with a crew to fill in cracks in our pavement. Instead I bought this and had my handymen filling cracks. We got most of them done with the 6 bricks supplied with this unit and the machine has paid for itself 10 times over. Couldn't be happier with the outcome.

We got a quote of $26,000 for a contractor to come in with a crew to fill in cracks in our pavement. Instead I bought this and had my handymen filling cracks. We got all of them done with half of the pallet that came in. Got it done with less than 1/10 compared to hiring a contractor. And you get a free machine! Couldn't be happier with the outcome.

I got quotes from $2 to $4 per foot to repair cracks on my 400' asphalt driveway. I tried the rope crack sealers, and though they worked, it was going to be way too much hard work to fill hundreds of feet of cracks. So I went for the Hotbox 10 and two 50 lb boxes of crack sealer from the big box store (HD) @ $50 including shipping. BTW, awful photos and unclear instructions in the print version that came with the unit, much clearer in the online version. Took about four hours to remove the excellent steel-reinforced packaging and assemble.Took about half an hour to learn the machine after it reached 400 degree operating temperature. Although the trailing shoe sometimes caught on the output tube, I could always manage to free it. Now I've done about 1,200 feet of cracks on a 13% grade to the highest standard, using 90 lbs of sealer and 3 gallons of propane—and will always have the machine for future use or to lend out. I also striped the outer edge of the entire driveway, where it is weakest, and that is really helping hold it together. I'll probably do the edge to reinforce it pre-emptively every year from now on.I'd say the pre-heating torch is essential, especially in cooler weather, it really helps the filler to get into the cracks and seal to the surface properly.If you are at all handy—and reasonably fit, if your driveway is steep like mine—go for it!

top quality built and work better than expected for a novice. I did my entire parking lot for my strip mall. This is a good deal. Get it before they take it off.

This machine is wonderful and does a great job but there is a knack to using it. I'm getting better but still far from expert. I have one crack near the bottom edge of the driveway where because of the hill doesn't allow the shoe to lay level. The material runs out from under the shoe so the last 10 inches or so have become almost total patch material. Not the fault of the machine and no one can see this area anyway.The other thing I'm trying to figure out is why I leave a thin streamer moving between cracks even though it has the drip cover installed.The finished job looks worst the first day. In time the patch sort of self levels and turns from shiny black to grey. The material gets soft on a 95 degree day but doesn't stick to shoes and tires. It is so stretchy that I may never have to do the same crack again.

This is a great deal. To get a free machine when you buy a pallet of crack filler. They work hand in hand.

This is a good 30 gallon unit. Holds 5 50# blocks or 6 30# blocks. Nothing fancy, but your good old reliable melter. I suggest you put 1 block of rubberized crackfiller at a time, then it does melt in about 10 minutes. And make sure you keep stirring with the handle. I use it with a pourpot. You also need a U squeegee to flush.
