THE COAL STARTER

Love it! Small yet powerful! The coconut charcoal I received, was actually the BEST charcoal for hookah pipe I've ever used, so that was a pleasant surprised, 10 points!

Very simple, very effective. Heats up coals quickly (though I put the coals directly on the coil) and the operation is very straight forward.

This is a excellent coal burner and I love the fact that it comes with coals. I use it for my hookah coals and also making smores.

Takes a long time to burn the coal.

Great product it takes 3-4 minutes, arrived 5 days earlier.

I use this for my hookah coals and it doesn’t take long to heat up.

$20 for a burner and a box of coals seemed like a sweet deal. The burner definitely heats coals fast but can't use the tray included or it burns coals unevenly. The 5 min light time is just for the super thin flats that come with it tho. The handle is nice and sturdy but not like the image and can't be used other than being screwed into the bottom. Also the inserts that come with it are nothing like the listing and do not sit flat on the coil requiring you to simply use the coil directly. Not having the insert that a tong handle can lift out is my biggest issue with this listing. I got a warped one that sits down on the coal and a lid style one that I'm not sure what to do with because it just gets really hot and has to be removed with tongs awkwardly. Also the coals that come with it turn black instantly on the bowl and must be blown on and flipped constantly. If this was more expensive I'd return it but it's not worth my time and the coil, although unlevel, will do the job for now!

This is a life saver no more burning coals over the stove or with lighter
