Bought a twin pack and for some reason it appears the fuel cooks off and then leaves unlit charcoal behind. We spent 30 mins adding paper and fanning the grill to get it hot enough to finish cooking our meal. First time this has happen with your product and by a quick skim of the 1 star reviews it seems to be a current quality issue. Time to find a new brand

I bought a bag of Match Light to take a baseball game to tailgate beforehand. We could not get the coals to light. We even tried burning part of the bag to ignite the coals. Still didn’t work. We ended up eating the overpriced food in the ballpark spending about $150 rather than the good food we brought.

We have used Match Light for years but it only takes one bad experience to leave a bad taste in your mouth. We bought two bags of the charcoal and used it the same day. It wouldn’t light. Seriously, we had to run to the store to get lighter fluid. I hope this is a fluke but not very happy at the moment.

I have bought 2 bags in the past 2 weeks or so and both bags wont stay lite. We prefer charcoal and Kingsford's brand but it doesn't want to stay lite like it used too. Very disappointed when we have to resort back to the kitchen and oven to cook our food.

The thought a cooking on the grille with charcoal getting the grill out, trying to find the lighter, finding matches, waiting for the charcoal was not a pleasant experience...now I happy to get the grill out and pour out the charcoal find the matches and bingo the charcoal is started. No muss nofuss!!!!

I bought 3 bags of Match light a few days ago and it would not light. I have used it bin the past and had no problem lighting it. Not sure what is different about it. I am on the fence about purchasing it again. Maybe the store gave me a bad bunch. Not sure if I would recommend again.

A friend of mine recently recommended this particular brand of charcoal. Purchased a bag yesterday and was amazed! The charcoals burned so smoothly and grilled my food to perfection! This will now be the only brand that I purchase in the near future! Definitely recommending this to other!

This is the worst charcoal product I have ever used. Had I known that I would need lighter fluid to light these anyway, I would have just bought regular charcoal. These coals do NOT light easily at all. We've tried newspaper, cardboard, matches, almost everything else short of pouring lighter fluid all over it, and nothing seems to work very effectively. We've been trying for over 30 minutes just to get the coals to LIGHT, let alone heat up enough to cook on. The one time we were successful in getting them to light, it took over an hour and 15 minutes to heat up appropriately. I will NEVER buy this product again, and I would not recommend that anybody else waste their money on it either.

Maybe I bought a bad batch but I have had no luck with this bag of grill coals. I have some coals that look like they have been dried out and none of the coals will light. I hate using lighter fluid and probably won't but this will most likely be my last time buying this product.

I am somewhat disappointed. I always bought Matchlight because all you had to do is touch a match to it and the bricquets would immediately light with a good steady flame, and they would be entirely gray and ready to cook over in about 10 to 15 minutes. Not any longer. Now I ave to either soak then with lighter fluid, or what I have been doing lately is use small squares of camphor to light the charcoal. And it take longer for them to completely light. Another formerly good product that someone messed with, probably to save money and cut production costs per unit. This is happening with a lot of consumer products these days. From here on out I will just get regular charcoal and use camphor to light it.
