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!

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 your product for many years with great results. in all this time only one bag did not come up to your standards . Then last night I opened a new large bag & could not get it to light. Fotunately I had another bag that did work. I looked for a batch # on the bag but could not find one . This is still a great product but I don't know what went wrong

I grew up on Match Light-- my parents used it, I used it with my parents and when I was old enough, I used it. Now, EVERY TIME I buy it, it doesn't light. Why do I keep buying it? Never again. This Mother's Day, I promised my mom a BBQ so like a sucker I bought Match Light again and guess what, it DID NOT LIGHT. I was furious. I had to delay my Mother's Day BBQ and go to 3 different stores on Mother's Day to find another instant charcoal NOT made by Kingsford. I used the other brand's instant charcoal and it immediately lit! I feel so cheated by Kingsford with its so called guarantee and its useless product that was once the best. These last few years though, it has been more miss than hit (and not just for me apparently). What happened to you, Kingsford? Do you just not care about the quality of your product (or your customers) anymore? Happy Mother's Day. :-/

I rented a camp in the Adirondacks and when I arrived,I discovered the grill was charcoal. So naturally I picked up a bag of match light because of Kingsford's exceptional reputation. In hindsight, I should have gone with the no name brand. It took at least 10 minutes to get the charcoal lit because it kept going out. Then it took well over 30 minutes for the coals to turn gray. I can deal with that but then my food tasted like lighter fluid. I had to drive to the closest town about 15 miles away to get something for dinner because the meal I grilled was inedible.

I have been using match light for years and have only had a couple of issues. The last 4-5 bags I have purchased either barely light at all or lights fast with lots of flame but then about 10 minutes in do nothing but smoke and the briquettes don't ash and burns very cool. It's ruined several BBQ's lately and I am re-thinking my charcoal purchases now.

I thought this would have been easier than using charcoal and lighter fluid. Wrong. First it wouldn't light. Added fire starters and it lit but wouldn't stay that way. Fire wouldn't spread to other charcoal either. I'm 20 minutes in and the charcoal still isn't lit. Worst waste of time and money.

The first two times, I was eventually able to light it using kindling firewood and salvage our dinner, but on the third (and final) attempt while camping it didn't light at all--went to bed cold and hungry and then when I got home, I had to throw away $25 worth of steak. Don't entrust your camping dinner or tailgate to this product!

I grill al the time and for me the Kingsford match Light are the best around they are quick to burn so you can start cooking within minutes they burn evenly and leave no charcoal taste in your mouth i have tired other brands of instant light but i didnot care for them at all . thanks for making a great product

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.
