Totally reliable
I purchased one of these because I'd had disasters in the past with wet matches. I wasn't quite sure what to expect or how effective it would be, but when came to use it I really was impressed. The amount of sparks that fly out the thing, I think it would be difficult not to start a fire! Will never bother with matches again, plus it's good for the kids to see a more 'basic' method of getting a fire going.
Pros: Lasts a long time, Easy to carry, Reliable
Cons: Can't think of any
Would recommend: Yes
