Im about to get started on a Corretto. I spent hours reading threads on the subject, but before I did, I happened to be in Bunnings, so bought a heat gun. When I got home, I proceeded to read that the one I bought was a dud. ($20 - A Bunnings brand, I think) So, I thought Id take it back and buy a Ryobi, which I remembered reading was good, when Im in the neighbourhood next. Eventually, I found a BM at Cash Converters, so the heat gun became more urgent. I went there today, and discovered that there were two versions of Ryobi. At first, it seemed to me that the only difference was that the more expensive model gave your all sorts of gadgets not needed for coffee roasting. But, the guy (may have been a good salesman) said that the more expensive one has adjustable heat settings and a stronger motor. So, I stood there scratching my head. He then showed me the GMC Platinum HG2000K, which he reckoned was the tradesmens model and a lot sturdier than the Ryobi. It was also $10 cheaper than the more expensive version of the Ryobi, so I bought that one.
I now cant find the thread that discussed heat guns, and dont really fancy reading everything all over again, so I wonder if you could advise me if this one is any good (also has 2 years warranty) or should I take it back and get the Ryobi? And if the Ryobi, which one?

and decided to go the ryobi route (2 speed only). Since then I havent looked back.
