Do you have to use fire lighters with this, or can you just use rolled up newspaper?

Hi Mrs Bowker, It is safe to use crumpled newspaper with our chimney starter, we also recommend using one of our firelighter cubes. Thanks

What size is the chimney? I am trying to make sure because there are many sizes being stated on Amazon

It's 20 cms in diameter and about 32cms in height.

Does this kit have the same chimney starter as the 7146? If so the complete kit is cheaper than the starter on its own?

As far as I’m aware, it is the same. Plus you get 2kg of briquette and 6 lighting cubes. BTW the chimney itself is great, 15-20 minutes and BBQ is ready

Would this fit inside a weber go anywhere charcoal thank you

I think it would fit in there. From wall to wall it's 7.5" . And 12" high. It's the best thing to start any BBQ. And been a Weber product it's very good quality. But keep it in a shed after use as it will rust.
