I think it's funny how all the charcoal starters I've seen yet are smaller than the weber. That's the main reason I've never bought an off brand.

It's almost like it's illegal for a company to produce as big of one or something. Lol

I have 3 or 4 Weber chims and 1 Raichlen.  Its the the only one I've ever seen that's larger.
Not sure how it will hold up against a Weber as I've never burnt out a Weber. The only
problem I've had with a Weber is a lost bail.  Never have found it.  Probably out in the grass
somewhere.

It does hold a lot.  Sometimes it's too much.

Home Depot has them in my town. I like pouring my coals in though.

Nice looking and a litte smaller than the Weber. I actually use my smaller Weber  mini more than I use the big one.
I could see a use for this type at times besides who can not use another chimney starter.

you can always mod the weber chimney to do the same thing.

Sounds like a project that I may do.....

The Raichlen looks good, but it sucks compared to the Weber. Both my brother & I have burned them out. I've had better luck with the cheap chimneys.

Didn't say it was good, said it was bigger.  It's about
half the thickness and half the weight of a Weber.

I also think the square corners give rust a head start.

 I got that. Just thought that I would put forth that the Raichlen chimney  is a POS given the money.
