What Customers Are Saying
This fire starter product is generally effective and reliable for starting pellet stoves and other fires, though some customers have noted issues with the recent formula change. The majority of reviewers praise the product's ability to quickly and easily ignite pellets and other materials, with many stating it is the best they have used. However, a significant number of customers have complained that the new gel-based formula is too thick and does not work as well as the previous liquid version, which they found more effective. Some also noted the product has become more expensive over time. Overall, the fire starter seems to be a useful and popular product, but the recent formulation change has been a disappointment for many long-time users.

Would RecommendThis is the absolute best firestarter for pellet stoves. Put a handful of pellets in the burnpot give it a squirt light it & your done. I like it because it gives me smokeless starts so my neighbors do not complain.

Thick (too thick) Slow Burn
Would Not RecommendBurns slowly but is too thick --- dispenses in globs and does not "squirt" so can not get starter inside kindling pile
Verified Purchaser
Too thick, doesn't work well
Would Not RecommendToo thick of gel, doesn't light the fire well. Will be going back to the other kind.

Fair Performance
Does not always flame up well. Sometimes have to put more product and relight fire. Using to light wood pellets.
