Great product. Super fast delivery!!

Looks good smaller than I thought it would be heats water fast does it’s job well
William Strickland –
Fast and excellent service, thanks a million
Margaret Baker –
I really do love this little unit. In spite of all the freeze warnings I see posted ( and do NOT discount those warnings) I was amazed at how tough it can be. We still had freezing nights when I received my cart, which was exposed to those temps and we made it through. It heats very well and feels like a luxury item to me. My health inspector saw the unit, she said, “Water heater”, nodded, smiled and moved on.
jay Stine –
I ordered this with the water heater end it didn’t come with any instructions. However; again I looked at the videos supplied on YouTube I’ve been and his crew and was able to do an install perfectly
RICHARD HALLIBURTON –
thanks mike it the man very helpful god bless
Bryan Cromer –

This model of heater works well and produces water that is plenty hot for the Health Department’s approval. It was easy to hook up as well.
I’ve used it twice in sub 10 degree weather and had to use a propane blow heater to keep it from freezing but it runs well!
Ruth Napoli –
The discount sure helped and it came just in time to install and pass inspection. If possible please send links to videos showing how to winterize the HWH so I can avoid bursting pipes again. THANK YOU
Stephen Wheeler –
I did not receive any of the necessary connecting hoses. I assumed I was purchasing the complete system. Yes, I realize the hoses are not shown in the product listing; but they are part of the package in the installation video on the product page. The manual is printed in broken English with small type in grey ink. Since the instructions are nearly illegible, you would expect the illustrations to support the installation process, but they are just as useless. So I’m back to the posted installation video which references parts which were not included and now I have to spend additional money to get a complete system. I feel like I’ve been ripped off.
terry caddo –
Heater not needed. Sinks do not meet code. Using sesperate system.
Bob Lange –
If you need on demand hot water this unit is awesome… Clean and professional looking, light, very easy to install, very efficent and WORKS..
I had an issue with the control settings to get mine to work and Keith the cart guru responded and helped with the best info very quickly.

LAURENCE BEALL –
Don’t let yours freeze or you will need to buy one as I did.
This one seemed to balk at firing up the first time but did just great when I turned water volume to max and tried it with a fresh tank of propane. Maybe the extra pressure helped. Ignited with just one click. Water is HOT. Thanks Keith for technical advice, you are the best! Thanks BEN for the good price and having Keith working there.
All the best, Lucky
Danny Turner –
Service was excellent shipping was so fast I could not believe it and before shipping they took the time to test and make sure water heater worked like it should

Donald Beaudry –
I needed a propane water heater for my enclosed cart. I researched several through other sites and didn’t know what I should order. Having owned a Bens “Big Dog” cart, I decided to check out their website. There I found what I was looking for. I ordered late one night and to to my surprised I received it two days later!
Rick Fulford –
Easy install, On demand hot water soon as you turn on.
Great Product
Nicholas Carano –
Wow, what a great site and great experience. Site was easy to navigate, great selection of what we needed, fantastic follow-through from start to finish! The product is exactly what we needed, and the accessories available made it a one-stop shopping experience. Thanks, will continue to shop!
Truett Jones –
Exactly what I needed
Diann Raby –
See above
kristin sponsel –
Hwh works totally fine. My problem was it is larger than the one originally purchased with the cart so we had to modify it to get it attached to cart. Was not happy adding extra holes in cart with self tapping nails to get hwh attached without kinking the lines.
Brad Wells –
Other than it coming to me broke,(which you took care off) it seems to work great.
Ronald Deschamps –
I does the job it works well. Also made the inspector happy. A great addition to the cart. Way better than a thermosiphon setup.
john ambers –
The process was easy to access, and we received the item within a couple of days.
Mark Edwards –
I assumed it was an identical replacement part. It was not. Mounting bracket holes did not match. Battery compartment different location (bottom). Had to be moved. Lots of extra work for install. Please give a heads up
Timothy L. Jones –
Thank you sir for a very fast and prompt service
Bob Dillon –
Every time I order I always get it fast and on time. Ben is not just a supplier, he is a partner. He gives to each of inspiration and the education we need to be successful.
Thankyou
Bob
Dan Hart –
Purchaced the first one and ended up using it on my RV. They are awesome!
Terry Webb –
purchased cart for wife to have fun , city says need ht wtr htr
ordered arrived on time
opened box
installed simple
thanks for support
Dave Rhodes –
Haven’t opened it yet but it’s important to always have quality spares on hand. Can’t go wrong.
ansen brown –
Everything had damage bent parts broken plastic pieces on pump. Makes no sense to me for you to stuff water pump and battery in with heater and remove the protective styrofoam that heater comes packed in. I understand now why you have alot of bad reviews.
Greg Fuller –
The order process went smoothly and arrived in a timely manner. However, I believe the box was knowingly sent out with potential damage. The box had deep banding marks on the edges of the box and was re-taped. Upon first inspection the water heater appeared to be okay but later I noticed that the edge of the heater was bent exactly where the banding indentation in the carton was.
Photographs were taken of the package prior to opening.
robert evans –
works great
charles brown –
I received the new water heater and I have installed it, so far it is working good. the only complaint is that one — it was not covered by warranty ( maybe my fault ) but anyway keith e-mailed me and said to notify him after I placed the order and it would ship free. I did and he would not ship it free. cart is back to work and I will keep selling hot dogs and hopefully make some money this year
Kenneth H. Jones Jr. –
I ordered online seen a picture of a hot water heater on your website. It was a plain white heater, received the heater in the mail quickly and good condition.But the water heater was stainless steel in color which was fine , but has a big flower on the front of it and i’m needing to put this on a hot dog cart.Don’t know if i will because it will look stupid.I feel it was a bait and switch,i’m very disappointed and i don’t believe i will be doing further business with you.

Product worked great would recommend..
antonio feliciano –
ordered a water heater in and had it installed . it was the final touch to getting this second hand cart. the day of my inspection getting it ready and the watwr heater leaked every where . when i emailed i was told it must have froze ill have to buy a new one . the water heater was drained and disconnected . but i was told they sometimes retain water… ive been trying to get this for about 6 years i really looked up to ben and what he did but was really disapointed at the results. a happy customer would have come back for all my cart needs … now ill never buy another tjing from benscarts and will talk about the poor quality and service for as long as i live
Robert Rhoades –
Bigger than mine but, we made it work.
Lisa Spence –
I needed to replace my heater on my Big Dog cart. The order was processed and shipped out on the same day. Thanks for keeping me up and running.
Christine Gischel –
Hot water heater works great and made it here in lightning time! Couldn’t be happier. Thanks so much!
Derek Fernandez –
Combined with the water pump, this water heater worked right out of the box as advertised.
Rhonda Eppley –
The Dog and Pig Rig needed a hot water heater. Ordered it from Ben’s late one night and it arrived 3 days later. The picture doesn’t do it justice. It’s a brushed nickel finish and looks beautiful on the cart. My HD guy is super impressed with how quickly it heats up and whatever my HD guy likes, I like too.
Robert Kiefer –
Easy hook up and passed state inspection
Fred Jones –
Leave it to me to wait till the week before my first event this season to go over my cart and find out my water heater was leaking like a sieve !! No worries I jumped online and ordered a new one and left a message telling them about my six days till my event problem .
couple days later my new heater was sitting on my front porch !! Thanks for the Great service Ben’s Carts The heater works great my only problem with it is that both mounting holes on top are directly behind the exhaust stack which makes it very difficult to get to them
Jeff Kirsten –
Started up right away and delivered hot water. From the website description it wasn’t clear that the flame only starts and runs when water flows, but that is indeed how it works (desirable). You can barely detect the spark noise when the heater starts next to the pump motor sound – the pump and then the water heater run when the hot water tap is opened.
Connect heater after a standard low pressure regulator (not direct to LP gas tank). This is the same regulator as used for the gas burners on the cart. The heater manual specifies gas pressure in Pa (Pascals) for which had to consult a website to convert to the US practice of specifying regulators in water column inches.
Also the drawing of polarity insertion for the two D cell batteries is barely readable in the manual – manufacturer please fix! You’ll do better by looking inside the heater box thru the vent and making sure the minus end of your batteries associate with the black wire position on the battery box.
Andrew Weissert –
The water heater is very good for the price. Not top of the line parts, but does the job on heating your water. When installing my new one on my cart, the intake valve would leak water. I’m sure a gasket or some thread tape will fix the problem, just haven’t had the time to try it yet! If you need one, it’s a good buy!
Ray Bennett –
works great on my cart
tj buchanan –
great product,very easy shopping exp.
kevin alcorn –
I thought the heater was of good quality and looks fairly simple to install. However, i have been so busy that i haven’t had a chance to install it yet,but, when i do, i will submit another review. I am sure it will perform as advertised as i have never had a problem with ben’s products.
Scott McClelland –
I bought this heater from BensCarts.com and it was the best deal anywhere by at least 30% – and that included shipping! Thanks for your inspiration Ben & Keith!
Michael Rogers –
Great water heater it arrived several days after I ordered i can’t wait to get my cart finished and in service benscarts offer prompt service will continue to use this company couldn’t do this with out bens help thanks for all your insight
Jason Noto –
Bought one about a year ago. Decided to buy a spare while they dropped the price. Only issue was they played the “mark the price way down, then nail you on the shipping and handling game”. But overall, well worth the price to my front door. I just prefer straight up pricing.
JOHN LAVENE –
Like the design. Water heater does NOT include a hose and regulator for LP gas which is included in the smaller L5 from ECCOTEMP.
Shelly Piro –
It was a little wider than the original water heater, so the cart had to be modified a little.
It arrived to my home very quickly, Thank you!
Alan Foster –
Ben everything came in quickly and all at the same time. The products I purchased to build my cart are perfect for what I’m doing. Thanks for taking care of that for me.
David Allen –
outstanding unit – works like a charm. easy to install. Great pricing and fast service.
Susan Bryan –
We ‘thought’ there was a problem with the water heater – turns out that the unit needs to be turned on more than 50% [but didn’t have that info in the instructions]. A call got us the info we needed and voila – hot water! Thanks guys!!
Greg Flesvig –
As I recall, It was a Saturday afternoon and I placed an order which had Tracking on it that evening. Did get my order in a timely manner with USPS. Top notch!
Laura Perkins –
A great product and works really well…a bit bigger than I thought it would be but it wasn’t really a problem installing it.
Alan Griffith –
I was hoping for a direct replacement. After removing the old one, I had to grind the shelf down because the L6 is just a smidgen wider than the L5. Mounting brackets were different so I had to drill new holes to make it fit. The battery compartment faces down and there isn’t enough room to put the batteries in without removing the heater again. The brass o-ring style fitting had to have the threads on the flared end chased because it would not seat properly on the propane hose. Finally get it hooked up and it only works in the winter mode. Instruction manual is very vague and hard to understand.
Kim Suing –
the hot water heater looks nice, however it is larger than the one that I purchased with my cart and I think it’s going to be a real pain to try and get it in my cart…I also had a lot of trouble last year with my water lines breaking..even after lowering the water temp and the water pressure…but I LOVE MY CART!
John Pierson –
had to buy two still no hot water now i own 2 hot water heaters that lite n look like they work but no hot water
Michael Wadsworth –
Excellent product. I have an L5 on my other cart, this new one is going on my second cart and can’t wait to use it. Great price too with Hot Dog Mafia discount!
Brian Shores –
Great product from a super great guy to deal with. You can’t go wrong when dealing with Ben and Keith!
Rob Cook –
The Heater showed up in the same box as all the other part I ordered without packing around it and the front cover was smashed. I knocked out most of the bent but still have a bent at the top of the cover. I didn’t have time to send it back. Please in the future protect the part that can get damaged.
Brian Gardner –
Have not hooked it up but looks straight forward and simple.
William Simonsen –
Just installed heater as a retro-fit. I bought a BigDog type cart from a previously happy Ben’sCarts customer and decided that I wanted to add an LP hot water heater and on-demand water pump. These folks are/were very helpful and the included directions are very straightforward. Ben’s video helps, also. The minute installation was complete I had hot water. Fine tuning the controls to my hot water needs is easy. I suggest close attention is paid to the warning about freezing temperature. There are several small places in the heater where water can hide and freeze. If your cart is kept in an unheated area in winter any water left will freeze and probably do damage to the heater. I haven’t checked with the manufacturer but maybe some RV Antifreeze for potable water would be helpful. Good unit.
Thomas Wright –
I never received my order, it has been shipped back. Can you please give me a refund. Thank you; also I do think it was a great price, yet at the same time the health department is giving me some trouble, so the project is on hold for the time being. Thank you!

LLoyd E. Trotte –
Great price for a great item
Thanks ben
Jack Meeks –
I received the notification that this item was on sale. I did not need one at the time but with such a low price, I could not pass it up and my wife (business partner) agreed. We ordered it…received notification or order and a tracking number…tracked it from shipment to delivery…received on time…in great condition.
When you deal with Ben…you can rest assured that he does what he says…Happy Jack’s Hot Dogs…Greenwood, Indiana
Angela Adcock –
The shipping couldn’t have been any quicker. I was well pleased with the service. However, I have not installed the heater on the cart yet…waiting for warmer weather. I will let you know this spring. Thanks for all you do and may the Condiment Gods continually smile upon you.
