MORE EDGES TO LIGHT FASTER

I've always trusted the Kingsford name. So it was no surprise that this new product exceeded my expectations. It burned better and added more flavor!! A+

Will Not light

I gave this product the benefit of the doubt 3 times thinking I may have just had a bad bag, or maybe it was the store I got it from. I am very disappointed because this is don’t not match at all . Waste of money and false advertisement

Almost ruined our 4th of July cook-out...

Start cooking fast with Kingsford® Match Light® Charcoal... that's a big lie!!! It took 10 minutes just to get the charcoal started with a propane torch. It would have never started with a match!!!

I have bought other brands and did't like them. This was easy to light, burns longer, and the instant light stuff does not evaparate after you open the bag like other brands do.

Hit and Miss

Spoiled my evening and events often enough. The bag even sucks and followed directions with dry bag. I prob won't buy again. Use lighter fluid and this leaves a chemical taste.

disappointed

I bought this to grill out with my family and it was very disappointing because it didnt light. I bought this one because it was easier...I had to end up going to the store and get lighter fluid because it wouldnt start.
