I have used generic chimney starters in the past,and, while they worked, they were also awkward and slow to get going. On the Weber 7416, the convex wire base, ample vent holes, and extremely comfortable double handle make this unit work perfectly. Two sheets of newspaper, given a quick spray with Pam, then crumpled, will have you ready to cook in less than 20 minutes. This is a great product, period!

Within ten minutes this thing was blazing!
The design definitely contributes to the speed. It is full of vents, and the wire grate on the bottom is far ... Read More
