These are 3 torches that I look at and give you my personal opinion on the characteristics of each. I have been installing Torch Down Roofs for 30 years and have always used the Magnum torches. My son started his own roofing business and found other torches. He likes the Express Raptor.
If you planning to do Torch Down Roofing, you should get yourself both a field torch to lay down rolls, and a detail torch for flashing and curbs.
