When you have a family waiting for dinner it is wonderful to just go out and light the briquettes. Easy and quick, just right for a working family. Light the briquettes, assemble your items for dinner and by that time the coals are just right for cooking. I would recommend this product to everyone.

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 mesquite charcoal 2 months ago and I kept it sealed and inside my garage, I've used it twice in that time and it would not light unless I sprayed lighter fluid on it now this time that did not work. I've had this problem once before.

I love this charcoal, it has helped me for many years, i believe this is excellent for a woman whom is grilling. Safer & they are right no fluid& no after taste like fluid does. I just wish it was a little cheaper in most stores for the larger bag. But over all i give it a 5-star in rating.

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.

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.

Now I consider myself and very good griller. I love using the regular Kingsford but trying to rush on two separate occasions I purchased Match light. I’ve used this in the last and it worked great but the last two times my fire just wouldn’t stay lit. I tried everything possible. I had to end up spending more money for new charcoal, removing my meat and restarting the fire with regular coals. I’m not sure if Kingsford has changed something about the MatchLight but it’s clearly not as good as it used to be. What a disappointment.

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.

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.

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!
