## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you get a carry case for this?**
A: Hi,  I'm sorry but there is no carry case for this item.

**Q: Is it good for the portable webber?**
A: It can be used for any BBQ that it'll physically fit on.

**Q: Is this really better than a £5 Asda chimney starter?**
A: Yes much better, for one it is much larger so you can heat up all your coals in it. Worth every penny. My husband says it’s the best thing I have ever bought him.

**Q: What sort of maintenance is required? How do you clean it?**
A: The chimney starter will only have ash left over from the charcoal so just wiping the chimney starter will a rag after use is the only maintenance required.
