Any one had trouble with it not getting hot enough? Seems like it doesn't produce enough of a flame or something. It came on the back of our camper

Very good grill. It should get to 450 in about 5 minutes with the lid closed. A few things to check:1) are you using small 1lb bottles or large tank? If large tank, make sure you turn the valve on very slowly. 2) Check the burner flame, you might have spiders in the burner that need to be brushed out with a burner brush like this http://www.firecraft.com/product/brushtech-gas-bbq-burner-tube-cleaner/grill-brushes-cleaning3) If need be you can replace the burner or regulator.

It is possible that there is something plugging the burner tube venturi or the holes in the burner tube. If it has been setting awhile, you might take the burner out and try to blow it out to clean it. My grill heats up to 500 in about 2-3,minutes. Also make sure the gas cylinder is seated tight in the regulator.

Mine gets really hot, that has never been a problem. It actually gets hotter that I had anticipated.

Make sure you hold it down for a minute before you release it, so it will heat up the element. If that isn't it, I have no idea. May be defective.

not sure why your unit doesn't fire...have you checked the igniter? Mine only refused fire once because I wasn't releasing the igniter correctly...I used a long nosed gas grill lighter that day...then I figured out to push and release the igniter correctly and have not had any problems since Really do like this gas grill!!

Ours works fine, but our builder did not allow enough room to vent out the heat it generates (it's built in). We tried to remedy ourselves, but it needs a professional to correct the issue, so it sits unused. Sorry I spent the money.

We are not having any problems with ours. Is it possible you are turning it down so low that it shuts off like a gas stove might do when it is on low? Try turning the flame all way up and see if it happens

I tried and it does not get hot enough. As for heating, it throws a lot of heat.

It took us quite a while to get it lighted. We had to keep the flame on the fuel piece until it started to burn. Be patient. It finally lit and when the lantern filled with the heated air, it went right up in the sky. It was beautiful! Good Luck!

We just bought the stove this summer and we did not have an issue with ours. Sorry to hear it did not work for you. It may be a manufacture defect.

We had the heater on for hours and never had any problems with it so far. The only time it shuts off is if we move it. You may want to contact the manufacturer and ask them what the problem is. They have a live chat on their website - http://firesense.com/

Yeah had the same issue. Headed up with in 10 mins of use. The manual does mention not to use it for prolonged periods though. Mine didn't last too long after it started heating up

We just scrape it down, turn up the flames to high and let it cook for about 5 minutes or so. Never had a problem

Make sure your bedsread is heavy enough to hold the heat. also if you are not in the bed and put your hand on it it won't seem warm. Mine was warm enough but the controller kept blinking and shutting of the heat. I replaced it with a Biddeford which doesn't seem very warm. Oh well.

Pot is top of the line. I agree it could be that your burner will not go low enough. A flame tamer works great.

Mine does get hot..not really hot hot. It sounds like yours might be defective..perhaps you'll have to return it.

that has not happened here with mine. Every item has come out perfect. I'm thinking you have a defective one that does not heat up enough.Oh Dear, now that is a hassle.

It should get real hot and light up while cooking. My cover did go bad one time and I got a new one. It works fine now.

We had the same problem. Turns out you need to use the smallest burner. Since it's not heat resistant plastic, the larger burner causes heat to go up the sides vs heating from the bottom, causing the melting.
