Bahama Garden Torch (Set of 2)

Mine rusted completely thru with-in 2 month and will no longer hold the torch oil. With-in a week it showed signs of rust at the seams as previous reviewer mentioned. Although it is a tempting product for any modern/contemporary garden, it is NOT WORTH IT...

The first thing I should mention is that I paid LESS THAN HALF of the currently advertised price...no more than $20 each. This makes up for shortcomings. Rust appeared along the seams after being outside about one month. Is there some kind of spray I should have put on them first? (I'm hoping to try this before using this season.) The second thing is that the chain holding the cap is so flimsy that they break and I keep finding the caps on the ground. Based on the very low price I paid, I would buy them again but I wouldn't leave them outside after entertaining. I do like the look but not if I can't solve the rust problem. The wick on one of the cannister's had fallen inside and in the process of extracting it, became shredded and not usable. Overstock replaced it promptly.
