Product Details

Get your fire burning quickly and safely with the must-have tool for all charcoal grillers. The durable, aluminized steel Weber Rapidfire Chimney Starter allows you to light charcoal briquettes quickly and evenly. The large-capacity, ventilated chimney is uniquely constructed to enable airflow, exposing more briquettes and reducing ignition time, so you can get cooking, grilling, and smoking faster than ever. Chimney starter features a unique, cone-shaped bottom grate that exposes more surface area of the coals to flame for fast and even lighting. The large bottom chamber is easy to fill with lighter cubes or the fire starter of your choice. This Weber chimney starter for charcoal grills includes two handles to provide you with optimal control. When your coals are hot and ready for cooking, grab the ergonomic, thermoplastic handle with one hand and the top, wire handle with your other hand to direct fuel exactly where you want it. The heat shield reduces heat transfer to handle, but you should still wear gloves when chimney is hot and you're pouring hot briquettes. And, the large 1.6 gallon size of the chimney starter allows it to hold around 5.7 pounds of standard charcoal briquettes for more convenient use. To get started, simply place chimney starter over a lighter cube or crumpled newspaper, light your preferred fire starter, and you're well on your way. Fast, simple, and no lighter fuel required. If you want to get the best performance out of your Weber Chimney Starter, it works best when used with Weber lighter cubes and lighter packs. Weber grilling accessories are constructed to offer the same long-lasting level of performance as our grills, so your grilling is a success every time.

This brand is worth the extra money you pay compared to the others. The flapper on the bottom is more secure than the other ones.

Today is the first time using this, I have either had a gas grill or used Match light. It took 20 minutes to be ready. This is the only way to grill.

Having struggled for years to light the Webber, only to find out hours later the beads didn't ignite I took the advice of a friend and brought the Chimney. Well what a difference, first time was a charm and couldn't believe the struggles I faced prior to the Chimney and a relief of knowing all the beads were igniting as they should. Perfect heat and solid quality construction, I didn't have to worry about the unit falling apart being so hot.
