The legs that swing out to form a tripod stand is effective. This works well for hands-free heading of heat shrink, or to let the gun cool after use. The temp readout is still visible when in tripod mode.
Comes with two tips, a concentrator, and a fan-out. The fan-out works for heat shrink, but I wish they had one with a half-pipe to hit the backside of the heat shrink so I didn't have to rotate the tubing. I'm going to get an extra fan-out to create a half-pipe tip.
I bought this heat gun for forming Kudex sheaths and holsters. I used it to make a small adjustment and I'm impressed at how quickly it heats the area. I set it to 300 degrees and i was in business in short order.
I feel as if the output is consistent with the setting. The "kickstand" feature is nice, I can set the gun down with the nozzle pointing up. I haven't tried heating with it in this position but it should be helpful if I need both hands free. The cord is a good length and a good gauge, it feels durable.
I am really impressed with the digital display and the ease that setting and seeing the temperature. It has two speeds and heat setting could not be easier an up and a down button just below the LCD display that you set to the desired temp and then it shows the actual temp so you can wait until you are up to the desired temperature, no guess work. With the gun set at 150F and on low speed you can get something just toasty warm, not flaming it like a blowtorch, really a nice tool.
There is a fold out stand on the handle that allows you to set the gun down like a steam iron while still running to free your hands for a moment and still have the gun up to heat and ready to go.
Bottom line: I am totally satisfied with this heat gun, how I worked with that old all on all the time old gun is beyond me. Hard to justify the expanse of replacing a tool that still works but this time I only can kick myself for not getting this sooner. There is a cheaper model without the digital display feature, just pay the man, and get the good one with the LCD you will not be sorry.
It's helpful to realize that the temperature setting is stored separately for the low and high fan speeds. I used to think I could let the tool come up to temp at low speed, and then turn the fan speed up when the tool was hot — but that doesn't work so well because the temperature changes when you switch fan speeds. Not a big deal, but it's helpful to know. The max temp on low is 750°F, while the max temp on high is 1100°F.
My only reason for dropping one star is that the tool stopped working after 4 years of light use. The LCD screen is blank and the gun won't heat up, even though the fan runs. It was a great tool while it lasted, but since the warranty is 3 years I now have to buy another one. The Factory Service Center in Westwood, MA says it's "too intricate" to repair.
Even so, I might take a gamble on another one because I liked it so much while it worked.
If you need a heat gun for around the house, I'd suggest spending the extra on this over a cheap harbor freight gun.

I also like the kickstand that folds out from the bottom of the handle for using the heat gun hands free, it also allows it to cool down without burning a surface.
I would have liked a DeWalt branded molded plastic carry case for it. I know the more expensive kit with other accessories offers it, however i don't see the added value for 3x the price.
