Pros

The starter provides hot charcoals very quickly due to the ample ventilation holes surrounding its circumference. Nylon grips on the stay cool handle and bail make it easy to handle hot coals. This really is a wonderful tool for grilling out and getti...  Read More

Nice sized chimney starter, very durable and reliable. No more replacing charcoal chimneys every year or two. My guys man the bbq weekly now when our son visits, and that is a treat for all of us.

Yes, it's pricey, but you'll be able to pass this down to your kids. It's built like a tank completely of stainless steel. I cant imagine ever needing to replace it. It also is stainless, so it will last.

Packaging/appearance


Badly dented prior to packaging as the box was untouched.

Competitiveness


It is also has a slightly larger capacity than the rapidfire, which i prefer.


It has a seemingly safer handle/ heat shield design, with a greater separation between the heated chimney stack as compared with the weber.


Even though the rosle and your typical $20 chimney, like our cuisinart are in whole different ballparks, i’m going to compare t...  Read More


This isn't just a fancy brand name on the same crap--it's legit.
