 I was amazed! July 18, 2008

I purchased the Weber Rapidfire Chimney Starter with high expectations due the reviews I read about this product on Amazon. I am a Chemist and so I have ample opportunities to run cool experiments. Even so, this product absolutely amazed me. Just as the directions specify, you literally need two sheets of newspaper to get the coals started. In fact, I used two small sheets of newspaper from a local circulation. Almost immediately, the charcoal turned into an inferno. My rookie mistake was letting the coals burn for too long. I let them start in the chimney for about 20 minutes because I was looking for the top layer to have a white coating. As a result, I had to let my burgers sit on the grill for twice as is called for in the Weber recipe book; the coals had already burned past their peak. In reality, the chimney probably needs just 10 minutes to get the coals going, which is another plus for this product. Why hassle with lighter fluid? Save yourself the worry of dining on propellant tainted steak. Buy yourself a Weber charcoal grill, a bulk bag of charcoal, this starter, and a cover and you will be good to go for the season.

Weber 7416 Rapidfire Chimney Starter works well every time. Stuff it with 2 full sheets of the newspaper, light the fire, and come back 10 minutes later, and you have yourself a fire ready to barbeque. I'll never be without one. You can buy the imitation and pay for it with frustration when the smaller ones won't light the 1st time, every time.

Weber 7416 Rapidfire Chimney Starter This thing is the bomb!! You will never need lighter fluid anymore and have to deal with that nasty smell and taste that the fluid leaves on the food. This is the perfect accessory for a charcoal grill. Everybody should have one. It's real easy to light charcoal and when used correctly the charcoal comes out perfect for cooking. Buy this!

Efficiently, quickly, and easily starts a sufficient amount of charcoal for a good-size barbecue. Heavy steel- should last a long time. Very easy to light.
Great Product for the price August 6, 2008

This product works as advertised. Easy to use and quickly lights charcoal. Only one or two sheets of newspaper is needed. Easily wins out over charcoal lighter fluid.
