Product Description

The original. Stokes hot coals and embers in BBQs, campfires and fireplaces. Cuts prep time mess and the taste of lighter fluid. Originates from Brazil, which means it goes well with a thong. Just crank the handle and watch your glowing embers blaze! The unit will not produce greater 'air volume' no matter how fast or hard you crank the handle. By steadily cranking the handle, you will get the maximum amount of 'air volume' which the product produces. Over cranking the unit or stopping the unit handle from free spinning when in use, will cause damage and in some cases, breakage, to the unit's internal gears.

I originally gave the product a bad review due to having mine break in the first use. The seller contacted me via Amazon's seller response facility, offering a new unit! I received it within a few days, along with the suggestion not to turn the crank overly fast .. it doesn't need it. So far so good, and I really admire their standing behind their product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent function - but you need to add oil to maintain it!, December 30, 2008

Over a year's worth of use, now. I just keep oiling this thing whenever it starts to "groan" and it perks up and works like magic. I heat my house with wood and it saves me 10-15 minutes a day. I'm in love with this simple little device!!!!!! Seriously, I get a big stupid smile on my face whenever I use it.

OK, I've used this for two months now. An amazing tool...but the lubrication appears to wear out FAST. My son poured olive oil through the air intake on the side of the blower and it stopped making the funky noises and got much easier to turn. Probably a light motor oil would be better, but be forewarned. It's such a great tool for starting fires quickly, even with wet wood. I am happy to add a little oil now and then.

I've used this for almost a month now. You just need to turn the handle slowly (like reeling in a fishing line slowly) to generate a good steady gust of air to light your fire. This speeds up the fire-starting process immensely - especially with green or damp wood. The one user caution is that when you stop turning the handle on the blower you must let go of the handle. If you hold on and suddenly stop the blower you will strip the gears and break the blower. I read a couple other reviews about users who had blowers break quickly. This is the only way I can see that you could break this beautiful little tool. Great value and a great gift for under $10 for the person in your life in charge of starting fires. A real time saver.

Good for: stoking campfires, stoking charcoal grills, annoying pets, blowing out birthday candles, drying your hair, cooling yourself off, making bubbles in the bath, and inflating your cheeks!
