AMAZING!
A long time ago a friend of mine made something like this from an old Maxwell House coffee can. At the time I though he could get rich if he marketed his idea. I was almost ready to give up on charcoal and switch to gas (yuck) because I am the world's worst fire starter. So I saw this Weber thingie at Amazon and for a few bucks thought I would give it a try. WOW! I took the advice of one reviewer and added a few drops of cooking oil to 2 sheets of crumbled newspaper. 15 minutes later the coals are BLAZING!!!! Not just warm, not just hot, as hot as the sun. Dump the coals out and toss your meat on the grill. The Weber chimney starter gives a whole new meaning to BBQ. I have rarely been so impressed with such a simple gadget. It is worth every penny and you absolutely have to get one. If I could give a 100% satisfaction guarantee on any product this is surely one that I would give a totally perfect 5 to!

Great! Nothing compares to it for fire starting
My family has used the same Weber Rapidfire Chimney Starter for 8 years and we live in So. California where our Weber grill is the cooking method of choice year-round. The Weber Chimney Starter heats charcoal without any starter fluied, as evenly and as fully as you like. For a slow-cooking dinner, we may turn the charcoal over before it starts sparkling. We have used many different kinds of newspapers to start the fire and find that black printed newspaper works the best -- we like the NY Times, as it doesn't fly around like other paper when you start it. Don't use slick paper or color printed paper as it doesn't seem to burn evenly.

Another winner from Weber
I have used generic chimney starters in the past,and, while they worked, they were also awkward and slow to get going. On the Weber 7416, the convex wire base, ample vent holes, and extremely comfortable double handle make this unit work perfectly. Two sheets of newspaper, given a quick spray with Pam, then crumpled, will have you ready to cook in less than 20 minutes. This is a great product, period!

perfect
Does the job. It's bigger than my last one; which is good because I can use a little or a lot of charcoal depending on my needs. My lighter won't fit through the slots around the bottom but that's not really a problem. I just lean the can over and light the paper. That second handle comes in handy especially if I fill the can up. It makes it easier to pour out and makes it easier for me to spread the charcoal.
