Its awesome that it lights up fast...but what the heck..it doesnt last long...i find myself constantly having to reload adding more charcaol in a matter of less than 20 min...Kingsford....way back when this brand was really awesome...not anymore.

Got the big bag of the black & red bag and it was sitting in the house for a week and went to use it and we had the chicken on the grill for a hour and still wasnt done

Look the startup time for this charcoal. Just light and cook away! Will always prefer these since you can buy one bag so its easy and convenient. No lighter fluid to buy.

This is the best charcoal you can buy! Tried an off brand once, horrible, just horrible. Kingsford is one of the few brands out there that just says "America".

Since the first time we used this we've been brand loyal. We love the fact that we doby have to keep lighter fluid on our property as we have small children and run a daycare from the home.

Bought this brand because I'm not a fan of using lighter fluid. All the coals wouldn't catch so I had to use the fluid anyway. This has been an issue on and off all summer. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Just disappointed.

I tried 3 different kinds and this by far was the best. It lit instantly with the long lighter and stayed lit for a very long time. The key to this is keeping the vents open all the way. The more air flow the hotter the fire.

We have tried other brands and wasted money . We like both the Kingsford Original and the Match Light briquettes , but Love taking the Match Light on float trips and cooking on the river banks. Kingsford briquette is wroth the money.

Me and my family always use match light charcoal. We have used cheaper brands but they didn't compare to Kingsford Matchlight. This charcoal always lights. Don't leave no after taste on food and burns a long time.

Love these for our grill that has a propane starter and they also work well in a chimney for our standard grill. Easy and quick, what more could I ask for.
