It works as advertised

This is my second chimney starter. Sometimes I use this in tandem with the other one depending on what I'm cooking. They work great. The holes in the side make it easy for the fire to breathe and feed on oxygen. Overall, great product.

Works Well

Works well and gets the charcoal started, can take a little more time depending on the amount of charcoal put into it, but is much better than just trying to light a fire on the grill bars.

Excellent!!

This product is great. With only two sheets of newspaper the charcoals are ready in 5 minutes!! I wish I had known about this product a long time ago. Now I need to figure out what to do with the two bottles of starter fluid I have left and will never use.
