WINONS Hot Wire Foam Cutter Tool, WFC0001 Polystyrene and Styrofoam Cutter with Max. Temp. - 350°C, Hot Wire Cutting Tool for DIY Projects (Kit of 3) (Kit of 3 Heads)

Works great and easy to use, helped out alot with my christmas village this year

I’ve never used a styrofoam cutter before so I was quite surprised by how easy it was to use. In the past I’ve used a box cutter or a razor hobby knife. Although the tool is lightweight plastic and feels like it could break it is surprisingly stronger than I imagined. It fell off my table to the hard wood floor and sustained absolutely no damaged. I like the clean cuts, ease of use, and the light weight. I’ve used plenty of soldering irons and the weight differences are remarkable. I really like this styrofoam cutter and I will be this quite a bit.

Very cheap quality. The item gets so hot that it's melting the top part of the base and causing the tool inserts to move around. Not very save if the tool is moving around and pending from the plastic base melting. Why make the top insert plastic for an item that gets that hot.

Received my hand held Foam knife and hot wire cutter it seems to work pretty good I did a simple test of each of the Cutting tools the Hot Wire bow works Really well and heats up to cut quickly, The Long knife and the Short one do not cut as easily and I noticed that they do not heat up very quick at the tip if you want to pierce the foam (I'm using primarily xps foam) but we will have to test it further and see if time gives it heat at the tip for penetration holes in the foam. We will have to see how it handles over time but its a nice set of starter tools and its thoughtful tthat they not only give the NICAD wire Strung on the Hot wire tool but they give you a few feet of extra wire. The Tips interchange fairly easy there is some tightness in fitting each which is good so that you don't have the tips falling off during work. The Blades do get really hot at the sides so Please Be aware if you touch them you could get a nasty burn. Overall a good and useful crafting tool at a reasonable price.

Works quite well, C shaped cutter is difficult to remove from the handle. I was cutting 1.5. Inch foil backed foam insulation board.

Honestly this is the 1st time using this type of tool. I had know idea what to expect. They make it look so easy on Youtube. But the price was good and so I thought I would give it a try. I had to make a bunch of decorations for Halloween out of Styrofoam and thought this would help. The wire kept snapping and the two probes just eat away to much foam for the level of detail I was looking for. I was getting very frustrated with the whole thing and decided to use the old hacksaw blade and box cutter knife that I had used before. When the company contacted me to ask how I was enjoying the product I told the honestly and they said they would send me some more wire and to go very slowly with it. To my surprise they sent me a brand new kit along with new wire and I tried it with more success. I do not know if I just am getting the hang of it or if the 1st kit was defective. Anyway the customer service was very good and I hopefully get many good uses out of this hot wire cutter kit. I think this tool would benefit from some way to regulate the temperature as I think that is why it eats too much foam. Bottom line , for the price and customer service I was satisfied.

I normally don’t leave reviews but this is a must so easy to use and would highly recommend it to anyone needing to cut foam board now off to paint it and finish my project

It was so easy to use. Heated up very fast and cooled off just as fast. First time using one of these tools and was amazed!

Muy buena calidad, igual que las fotografías, funciona muy bien, excelente herramienta, a la ciudad de México llegó muy rápido

Very pleased with this item. For years I've cursed that foam packaging that so much stuff is packed in nowadays. It's hard to dispose of. To get it in the bin it's difficult to cut even with a sharp knife, and sawing it leaves a million little white bobbles that get everywhere. We've recently started getting our meat and fish from an online supplier. Lovely quality, but packed in large foam boxes and the prospect of dealing with them on a regular basis almost made me give up using the company. So I bought this, and what a pleasure it is to use. It comes with three fittings. Two wands of different lengths, and the bow shaped wire cutter which is what I use for the boxes. Slices through the 40 mm foam effortlessly, allowing me to cut the foam into small sizes suitable for a bin bag without a hint of mess. Brilliant! Mains supply, so no worrying about the battery running low, and comes with a spare wire. don't know how long it will last, but so far I love it. EDIT. 17th Dec 2025. I mentioned in my original review that I didn't know how long it would last. Turns out - about 5 years. It's just gone BANG. Literally. Big flash. Loud bang. Something internal in the plug has shorted and even split the plug! So. Don't know quite how to react. I must say, though, that it's been fantastically useful, during quite a hard life. It didn't do any harm when it went, and I'm going to get another. Wouldn't be without it now. I'm not even going to change my rating. Still a 5 star item for me. I just thought I'd mention this development.

Frequently, purchased items arrive with rather large blocks of styrofoam - a nuisance to break up, makes a mess, and cannot be recycled!!!! Smaller blocks - about grapefruit size, can be easily put in a bag for disposal, or used as a packing, or even put in the bottom of gardens to assist in drainage. The cutter is surprisingly fast, heats up VERY fast (seconds) and doesn't have much smell, although they do recommend you use it out doors....

はっきり言って使えません！ プラスチックに使いましたが熱が弱くて！ 発泡スチロール専用なのかな？

Gute Produkt, perfekt für Modelbau Arbeiten
