Pros

  • Extremely effective at starting fires quickly with just a few pieces and a bit of newspaper.
  • Produces a strong, roaring flame that ignites even weleasoned, dry wood reliably.
  • Significantly reduces the need for kindling and paper compared to traditional firtarting methods.
  • Consistent performance makes it a preferred choice among fire starters.
  • Excellent value for the price given the large 1ound quantity.
  • Very clean and easy to handle without mess or dirt.
  • Contains assorted sizes with pieces ranging roughly from 4" to 8", including both thin and thick sticks for versatility.
  • Easier to light than many competing firtarting products, often igniting with just a simple lighter.
  • Box is filled to the brim, ensuring a generous supply.

Cons

  • Quality is inconsistent, with some batches containing many very short, thin, or splintered pieces that burn quickly or not well enough.
  • Some users find the sticks uneven and smaller compared to previous purchases, giving an impression of leftover scraps.
  • Smaller pieces have little burn time, even when combined, which can be frustrating in colder or tougher fire conditions.
  • The wood can release a black liquid when burned, which might be problematic in certain types of wood stoves.
  • Overall product quality feels inferior or disappointing compared to past orders or similar products.

Bottom Line

If you want a *powerful and fast firestarter* at a good price with plenty of volume, this 18-pound box from Better Wood Products delivers mostly on that promise, especially if you don’t mind some smaller or uneven sticks in the mix. However, if you prefer consistently larger, higher-quality pieces or want to avoid potential issues like the black liquid when burning, keep an eye out for newer batches or consider trying alternative fatwood firestarters that guarantee size and quality consistency. For straightforward, reliable fire ignition in wood stoves or campfires, this product stands strong but may frustrate perfectionists.
