We have used this charcoal for the past 15 years. We didn't suddenly forget how to grill meat. Your 'new' charcoal no longer cooks, is difficult to use and has ruined many meals this summer. No more. We will not longer be buying your product. I hope others stay away. Save your money.

Not being a "Grill Master" I always have issues with lighter fluid and charcoal, not enough fluid to light, or too much fluid which gases up my food. I only use this brand after trying some of the cheaper competitors. There are no competitors to the quality.

I love the fact that I do not have to use 1/2 bottle of starter fluid to get this started and can do it myself instead of waiting for hubby to get home from work to light it! It also seems to burn the starter fluid smell off quickly, so doesn't have your meat smelling like it!

I recently purchased a new grill and when I did bought a bag of your Matchlight charcoal. The 1st night we go to use the grill I spent almost an hour trying to get the charcoal to light. I even place paper under the pile when the lighter got to hot to hold and still it would not lite. I had to go to the store and buy lighter fluid, that I have no place to safely store, to get the charcoal to finally light. I was very disappointed in your product.

I have a terrible time using lighter fluid. I hate the smell and the way it starts the charcoal. I was always afraid I would burn myself. Three months ago, I had a friend tell me he would bring a bag of Match Light over to try, since he was the one grilling I said sure. I could not believe how it worked. I have used Match Light ever since. It only takes a few minutes until it's ready. I have no trouble lighting it and no smell. I will be trying the hickory chips next.

We use Kingsford Original at home, when we vacation, go camping and trips where we will be cooking out, we will use Kingsford Match Light. Great product, easy to use and very convenient! We enjoy the ease of use along with th ecools burning long and evenly!

Would not light. I bought this specifically so I wouldn’t need to buy starter fluid. What a mistake that was. Would not light with matches, lighters, etc. I even tried pouring whiskey on it and it still refused to light. Looks like I’ll be boiling my brats tonight. Thanks Kingsford for the horrible product. 0 stars WOULD NOT recommend.

On vacation trying to grill for my family. I've been standing out here trying to light this charcoal for over an hour. Don't waste your money on Kingsford. Use any other brand, ready to grill in 10 minutes? Yeah right. I'd really like a refund because Kingsford has ruined this night of vacation. If there was a choice to give this product 0 stars, that's what it would get.

i have used this product for 20 years now and have loved it every time, however the last 3 times i have tried it lately it does not light. a friend of mine told me to use lighter fluid, i told him it was match light and i should not need it. he said he uses lighter fluid every time. im thinking this product has gone to the way side and would not recommend it to any one. sorry for the bad review but its better than trying to light your grill and can not do it. scott

I bought some of this product and it would not light and didn't get very hot or stay hot very long I have always bought this and up until the last few months it worked great now not so much would I recommend to a friend no because it isn't worth the price or saving time since it doesn't burn well or get how enough. I am very disappointed in the product and probably won't be buying it anymore since it has go downhill. I cook with gas all the time that is what I love about charcoal is the different taste but don't get that anymore.
