Ripeng 30 Pcs Insulating Fire Brick 3200F Rated Wood Stove Fire Bricks for Fireplaces Blacksmith Forges Heat Oven Kilns Insulation Block for Metal Clay Firing, Jewelry Soldering (9 x 4.5 x 1.25 Inch)

I ordered five boxes of these bricks to line my outdoor fireplace. I was a bit skeptical about ordering them due to all of the people who received broken bricks. Of 150 bricks, only one was broken in half and was still usable, one had a chpped corner and was still usable. The bricks are light, easy to cut and easy to work with. Inititial impressions are very positive. Hopefully they will hold up long term,

30 for 30 on good bricks. I was expecting 5 to 12 to be broken. They must have improved the packaging, or the reports for the broken ones were the 3/4" bricks. These are 1-1/4.

My deepest apologies to the driver. I have never had a package delivered inside my porch. The package was delivered on time. And in good condition.

The recommended replacement bricks by the manufacturer of our wood stove was more than double the cost of these, and for less number (18 for $240). These replacement bricks have a higher temperature rating and after a week's worth of wood burning, surprisingly no burn marks as was the issue with the original bricks (I do expect discoloration at some point though). I'd give these 5 stars had it not been for the packaging, which was simply a cardboard box with a thin layer of bubble wrap between layers of bricks, much of which had already lost it's air bubble protection. Hence, three bricks were broken. I'm sure part of the issue with broken bricks lies with the shipping/delivery folks. I think if the manufacturer repackaged these in a solid wood crate, they'd have many more happy customers. Even with the broken brick issue, I'd buy these again.

Approximately 1/3 of the bricks arrived broken, which speaks to the lack of care in packaging and to the fragile nature of the bricks themselves. These bricks are VERY light weight and not durable for use in boiler fire boxes or kilns where there may be any impact at all.

Too fragile

Used to line bottom of fire pit. After scoring they mostly cut at Mark using a coal chisel

The packing of the product was poor and many of them arrived broken. The Quality of the brick is also very poor. Too flimsy, sponge-like and breaks easy. Good thing I bought enough quantity to replace the broken ones.
