The Weber Rapid Fire Chimney Starter has a 4.8 rating and over 5,000 reviews on Amazon. I've been using one for years and I don't know how I managed to start a charcoal barbecue without one. You fill it with charcoal briquettes, put two sheets of crumpled newspaper in the bottom and light with a match. In 20-30 minutes the coals are ready to be poured into the grill for cooking. No starter fluid needed. It's on sale for $15 on Amazon right now.
