I love the fact that I can light candles without burning my fingertips, which usually happens when I turn a normal lighter sideways so the flame can reach the candle’s wick. I just quit smoking, but I smoked a pipe for years and regular lighters often burned my fingertips. With this lighter the flame comes out sideways but is no where near my fingertips - no more burned fingers! Also works great for lighting my gas grill when the built-in sparkler doesn’t work. I have purchased 4 side-flame lighters. The first two where a different design and worked well for about 6 months, then failed to create a flame (even though the gas was flowing and a spark was created.) I have been using this model (one black, one brown) for about a year and it always works (unless I press the button too slowly; however this is a consistent property of the lighter.) If you press the button firmly and quickly, it lights every time. When I quit smoking I gave one to my mother who likes candles. Every once in a while she calls and says “I just lit a candle without burning my finger and I wanted to thank you again for the great lighter you gave me.” When I did smoke, it was great for lighting my pipe, cigar, or cigarette. And really good for giving someone else a light. Read more
I gave it one star because it looks cool and classy. Problem, it broke after one use and has never worked since. For the three minutes it did work, the flame was excessive, eyebrow burning flame. Do not buy this cheaply made product or you'll be very disappointed. Too bad. Read more
Bought this as a gift for a pipe smoker. It looks and works well, but it's very small, about half the size we expected it to be. Read more
Grat size and design. Good value for money very light weight, gust wish the fule tank was biger. Light that you can agust the flame. Read more
Didn't come with the promised adjustment key for flame size, always took a few clicks to work. Now the flame shoots out way too large and has is done in a few seconds, dangerous and wasteful. Adjustment doesn't help. Worth it if you consider the coat of disposable lighters for the time it worked but long term there are better options. Read more

This is a very inexpensive butane lighter so there’s only so much expectation for this product at the start. The Good: It’s still working after two months of ownership. The Ehh: The weight is light and the parts don’t fit together very well. If they move, they rattle. Pretty cheap, like the price. The Ehh revisited: The electronic starter is effective about half the time, maybe less. The Are you kidding: It’s unable to maintain enough butane to last a normal day of use before needing to be refilled. (yes I’ve followed all the proper steps to refill a butane lighter) If I take a day trip somewhere, I do not believe this lighter will store enough fuel to last the entire trip. It simply will not hold enough for my needs. Caveat 1: I am a pipe smoker and our needs are much greater than a cigarette or cigar smoker as you only light those smokeables once, and a pipe you light often. Caveat 2: A typical Bic Lighter will last me a couple of weeks. Quality of workmanship is substandard and quality of operation is misses the mark by around 50%. (I’ve not counted) For the price, I’m not that concerned about the misgivings of this product, I just thought some folks may want to know. Read more
This was the 2nd cigar lighter I have ordered from Amazon in a week or two. The first would not light but had neat pipe tools attached. I was hoping for better results with this one. Even though it was supposedly from a different company, it would also not light. I finally give up on trying to find a pipe lighter from Amazon, unless I got with the Zippo pipe lighter like I used back in the 1990's. Never had a problem with it unless maybe it was really windy. Do not waste your time or money on this one. Read more
