Factors You Need to Consider When Buying a Good Fire Poker

It is a professionally built fire stick that can ensure extra safety. With the right type of fire poker, you are assured of your safety when dealing with fire.

However, that doesn’t mean that all sticks available online are suitable. In fact, the majority of them are counterfeit. So, what some of the factors are to consider when acquiring fireplace poker sticks online. Here is a curated list of key factors that you must you consider before buying any fireplace poker stick.

Quality Of the Material

The material used to build the stick defines its durability. The sticks made out of heavy-duty stainless steel can withstand any high temperatures. Stainless steel or iron may require that you dig deep into your pocket, but they are worth the cost.

However, there is also basic and good quality wrought iron that is also ideal and can also do the same work.

So, you don’t necessarily need the stainless ones. The wrought iron rods are much cheaper with equally effective strength to do the job of fire poking.

Choose Poor Heat Conductor Handle

Before checking anything, it is important that you scrutinize the quality of the handle. Who wants something that has been made out of material that conducts heat to burn your hands? Go for a fireplace that has good handles. Quality handles are a must for better safety in managing the fireplace.

Consider the Length of the Stick

After ensuring that everything is in order, you must also pay attention to the length of the fire poker stick. The stick with a short arm means more heat will reach you.

Most sticks available online, come in about 15 inches to about 20 inches of size but can still fall short if you are looking at outdoor campfires.

That means, for effectiveness, you should order sticks of the length between 30 inches and 40 inches to effectively work in the outdoor scenario since they can help you manage the fireplace more effectively.

Consider the Type of Hook it Bears

The type of hook used on the poker stick determines how the poker will touch the fire. There are different hook types ranging from the round hook to the prong-styled fork hooks to simple sharp pointy ones, or a fishhook model or a rake model.

For those dealing with outdoor fires, there is a need for picking the logs sometimes. For that reason, it might be ideal to go with fishhook models or rake depending on their comfort levels. But you can also pick simple hook models which are also more than fine.

Consider the Intended Use

Based on the need, fire poker can be Single piece or multiple pieces. As the name suggests, a single piece is a one-handed length of the stick. It does the job just fine. In fact, it is the most preferred model type.

Multiple pieces of sticks on the other hand can be assembled for throng-type sticks depending on the use cases like indoors, and outdoor fire pits among others. So, as you place your order, be sure you have a well-defined intended use so that you make the right choice in the long run.

Bottom line

You need to take care of this before making a purchase decision regarding the fireplace stick. Go for a universal one with a heavy-duty wrought iron steel build, robust and ergonomic handle, decorative looks, and an efficient fishhook. That way you will get the best fire poker stick to buy.
