5 out of 5
Stars
I purchased this because
we do a lot of camping & I always like to have some fire starters on hand
just in case, epically for the damp & rainy days. Normally I make my own by
recycling all my empty egg cartons, empty toilet paper rolls, newspaper, lint
(sawdust when I’m doing my woodworking) & ends of my candles. (This works
great & I will likely continue to do this but not everyone is a crazy nut
job who insists on repurposing everything I can) but when I saw these, I
couldn’t resist giving them a shot. I must say I was very pleased when they
arrived. (Since I won’t have my next camping event for a few more weeks, I
decided to send a couple with a friend of mine who was able to attend one this
past weekend. I got nothing but rave reviews back from them. They were very
thrilled that I had given them a couple for the weekend.) First off, would like
to note that these are nice & dense, yet have enough airflow to get them
going really good very quickly. They have enough burn time to start up a really
good fire in no time. I will have to say also, that I was expecting something
that just smelled like unscented paraffin wax, but they actually has a kind of
nice scent to them. Nothing major or anything, but just enough to actually give
me a nice at ease feeling. I love the fact that they are made of recycled
ingredients & due to the simplicity of them (newspaper, wax &
cardboard) they will last you indefinitely.
This is great if you won’t be using them much, as this nice large bag
will last you a while & you won’t have to worry about them not working when
you get around to using them
Pros:
Very well made &
dense fire starter. Great for starting a fire on the moist, damp or rainy days.
Lasts long enough to get even damp wood burning good.. Made of recycled
newspaper, cardboard and wax (got to love a product that is using recycled
ingredients. 2 thumbs up for GOING GREEN)
Cons:
There is not much bad
I can say about this product. If I happen to have any other information after I
personally use them I will update my review accordingly, (my next event is 2
weeks long) . But really.. I just can’t say anything bad about these
I would recommend these
in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a simpler way to start a fire. These are
great for your home fire pit of while you’re camping. Since they will essentially
last you forever until you use them, they are great to keep stocked in your
cabin or RV, or toss one or 2 into a zip lock for your bugout bag.. You really
just can’t go wrong here
