Rapidfire Chimney Starter for Charcoal Barbecues/BBQ Accessory, Lights Charcoal Briquettes Quickly Without Lighter Fluid, Aluminised Steel, 6 L Capacity, 32 cm x 20.5 cm x 32.5 cm

Excellent BBQ accessory – 5 stars all the way. Very impressed with the quality and sturdy build of the Weber Rapidfire Chimney Starter. It lights charcoal briquettes quickly and evenly without needing lighter fluid, which makes barbecuing much easier and cleaner. Simple to use, reliable and saves a lot of time when preparing the BBQ. Good size capacity and feels built to last. Excellent value for money and highly recommended for anyone who enjoys charcoal cooking.

I'm new to BBQing and this is an absolutely magical item. You simply put charcoal into the top, some sort of firelighter (or even paper towel soaked in oil) underneath, and in 15-25 unattended minutes you have red hot coals! It's enabled me to do way more midweek BBQing - I even fire up the grill just for a couple of steaks in winter now as I much prefer keeping all the smoke and grease outside instead of in the kitchen. One thing I'd say is to be aware of just how large this is. Obviously this is a great thing for filling a large BBQ with hot coals but it is quite large to store, plus you have to light quite a few coals at once. I've found if I only need a few briquettes to do a couple of steaks, it's best to stack them on one side of the chimney starter and position the firelighters under that side. Spreading them evenly around the bottom doesn't always seem to get an even light when there are so few. But other than that, it really is foolproof. No lighter fluid, no waiting 45 minutes for the grill to be at temp, just blazing hot coals in 20-25 mins max. It is really great.

Fantastic product. Has the barbecue going in 15 minutes. Highly recommended and value Foyt monry

Excellent. Coals were ready to tip into bbq after only 10 mins. Even heat. So much faster than before. Handle not too hot to hold, easy to use. Definitely recommend, wish we had one years ago.

It took a while to get the coals to full temperature roughly 30 minutes, mostly briquettes. I timed 15 mins from lighting and it was getting warmer but not hot enough to cook on by a long way. (Photo here after 25 mins) however it did a very good job of heating the coals consistently throughout and was simple to light. Zero effort once lighter cubes were lit. It's a decent size and catered for 4 adults comfortably, but any bigger you'd need to add more coal.

Excellent device. Cannot believe how well it works. Very robust construction.

Good pgoduct

I received a CosmoGrill for my birthday and trying to get the hang of bbq’ing without my old Lotus Grill, which circulated air. Looking for an appliance to help with the coal burning, I came across this. It looked like the bigger version of the internal burning cylinder of the lotus grill, so decided to give it a try. The instructions were simple to understand and that night, best bbq ever! Using just 3 cubes of firelighter, I filled the cylinder to 3/4. Lit the cubes, placed this on top and perform exactly as stated. Initially a lot of smoke and then the flames built up in a controlled way. Within 15 minutes, my coals were ready to be tipped and spread across the bbq. Closed the lid and waited until the internal temp reached 260 degrees C and started cooking. Not only had I got a full bbq on the go in 15 minutes, it was evenly cooking across the whole grilling area. Even if you think you are great at bbq, I am 100% sure this will make your life much more easier. No more shuffling charcoal and having to watch it constantly, this has taken all the problems out of bbq’ing!
