Pros & Cons
Pros
Holes at base of cylinder allow insertion of long fireplace matches to light a fire starter cube or crumpled sheet of newspaper.
Takes some practice to use it but once it gets going, it works great! Works exactly as intended. Works perfectly from the size to the design.
Cons
Je n'ai pas pu l'utiliser encore. It is flimsy when hot. Is it normal or not?
Highlights
Quality
These are a must for charcoal grillershave worn out at least 3 of these over the years - am happy
Works very well and will light your charcoal or charcoal briquettes in just a few minutes.
It will not become brittle with repeated use and break like a screen will.
This device is basically a metal tube with a handle.
Price
No need to spend $30 of more on these chimneys.
Exactly what i wanted and great price
No reason to spend more money on a "better" one.
Good product for the price you pay.
Shipping
It arrived quickly and i was impressed on how well it works.
Product came on time and as described.
Competitiveness
I found it way better than the one that i bought at wal-mart.

The only downside is that it is bulky and an awkward shape with fairly sharp edges for putting in a backpack or bag

Wish there are more holes in the chimney

Unlike cheaper made products with a metal screen inside the cylinder to hold the charcoal this model has a perforated metal square whose corners protrude through the cylinder walls
