Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lights up Fast Kingsford lighter fluid paired with Kingsford's charcoal really gets a fire going quickly. It lights very quickly. It's odorless so your food won't taste like lighter fluid at all. It has a safety cap on it which is good just in case a little child gets ahold of it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Get your fire started! This has always been a go to fire starter when I can’t get the fire going. Alittle goes a long way and the price is reasonable! Perfect for outside fires, inside fire places, etc.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Works I hog this pack of lighters at Costco. They lasted about a year. We light candles a lot in our home. I like the one that bends the most out of the variety packs

Rated 5 out of 5 by from good lighter fluid I received this with prime and it came packaged nice. It wasn't leaking at all and it's available for customers. Many stores in town are out of this. It'll definitely last a long time. Beware of the 2yr expiration date. They get fired quick and safe . I really recommend for summer time . It work well with charcoal same brand .

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It works Kingsford lighter fluid works very well to get your charcoals lit. It does have a bit of a smell of course, but that smell had never transferred to our food.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Help to prepare charcoal grill much faster We use charcoal lighter fluid for most of the time when we use charcoal for BBQ. This product helps to burn charcoals so much faster than any other methods. Just need to place some small wood and paper around charcoal before dropping the fluids.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cost effective The best lighter fluid on the market. It gets the fire going quickly and efficiently and it’s very cost effective as well. I don’t use lighter fluid anymore but I did this would be the brand.
