Even the most superior stainless steel landscaping torch couldn't justify a $695 price tag, so Bellox went back to the drawing board to retain the quality while lowering the price. The Classic Torch is easy to fuel, simple to adjust with a controllable flame height and safe to extinguish. Since its introduction in November 2000, the $149.99 torch has drawn tremendous response from wholesale and national catalog distributors at several Pool & Spa and Home & Garden trade shows.
