Benass 30,000 BTU Double Tank Top
#7 in Tank topFull review
For outdoor gatherings and work areas that need two burners from one tank on a budget. Keep it outdoors, since the listing gives no ventilation rules.

3.0/5
For crews on open job sites, loading docks and sidelines who want the most heat a single tank top gives, in every direction. Use it only where fresh air moves freely.

Pros
- Its round burner throws heat all the way around, and the head tilts to aim it
- Up to 45,000 BTU, enough to warm a crew around one tank
- Shuts off if tipped over, and the gas stops if the flame goes out
- Turns down to 30,000 BTU for about 14 hours on a 20 lb tank, by Mr. Heater’s figures
Cons
- Lit with a long match or lighter, which is harder in wind
- Burns through a 20 lb tank in about 9.5 hours on high
- No safety listing mark named, though the manual cites the construction heater standard
- Not for homes, campers or tents: ventilated job sites or outdoors only

For tailgates, hunting blinds with open sides and outdoor work where two burners on one tank matter more than a certified brand. Use it only outdoors.
