Chimney does an awesome job of getting the coals lit.

This simple concept is great. The newspaper used at the bottom of it stays in place controlling embers. No lighter fluid. Coals are ready in 15 minutes. A safe way to start the fire for your grill. No electricity needed. Easy to clean.

This is a great product. Although I have found a better way to start the flame going consistently than 8n the manual.

Not quite sure why there isn't a flame proof handle. The bottom of the handle melted the second time it was used. Granted, the flame was a little out of control! But one would think a product made for a charcoal grill would be designed to anticipate this circumstance. Otherwise it's a great product and does what it is supposed to. It is still usable. Lesson learned?!?

Standard equipment. How do you start? With a chimney.

This is the ideal fire starter. Weber understands the laws of physics, and this works perfectly every time. What more could you ask for?

I have used this 2-3 times per week for years. I wore one out through heavy use and am on a second one. Works great. Two pieces of paper (ideally newspaper, but so rare these days so I often use ad inserts) in the bottom and charcoal up to and you are ready to grill in 15 minutes. This is the invention of the decade. Back when I was a kid, dad used to soak charcoal with loads of lighter fluid. I shudder to think of what we consumed. But here that is completely avoided.

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
