Pros: Very cool design.
Works like its supposed to.
Can be easily refilled with standard butane canister from supermarkets.
Lasts quite long.
long handle prevents accidentally burning your finger as with standard lighters
way better than any other lighters i've used before.
Very cheap. I got a lot of oohs from people who have seen it
Cons: Will be better if it was larger. Also will be good if it has a easier to use switch. The one on this model is a little stiff. My finger got a little sore from pushing it.
Bottomline: Cool little gadget.
Can be used to light things u don't want your finger to get close to.
Very nice!!

Pros: It's very interesting, funny and innovative to have match stick shapped lighter, not to mention that it's very usefull to light ovens, barbecue grills, fire places, because it is long and makes it safe to do so.
By the way, if you're like me and is wondering what is the size of this lighter, it is about an adult's open hand long(from thumb to little finger), so it is a big lighter!!
Cons: Mine came a bit twisted, because its metal body is thin, and thus not so resistent. Well we'll give a rest because a trip from china isn't just any trip.
Other Thoughts: Cool thing to have around the house for multiple purposes.
Bottomline: Wan't a cool lighter to have at hand at home, to lit candles, fire places or whatever, buy it and you'll be satisfied!!

Pros: Very convenient when you want to light decorative candles that are hard to reach with the flame of an ordinary lighter. This lighter can easily reach candles in glasses or ornate candlesticks. Has a small hook that lets you hang it on the wall, for example. Sturdy construction, and with place for a lot of gas.
Cons: It's big in size (like a thick long pen) so it doesn't resemble a matchstick so much as on the pictures, though it does have the proper color.
Other Thoughts: This is not a lighter that you'd carry in your pocket all the time, if you're a smoker, as you carry ordinary lighters. Arrived almost empty of gas, so I guess it ships empty for shipping safety.
Bottomline: A useful item to have around at home, especially if you decorate your house with candles.

Pros: - Nice look
- Unique design
- Good price
- OK build quality
- Great as novelty item
- Adjustable gas flow
Cons: - Build quality can be improved
- Gas container inside can be made bigger
Other Thoughts: Nice and unique design, it resemble the item that is common to lit up and make fire.
The design inspired by old common method to lit the fire (old fashioned match stick) and blow it up multiple times to make giant
Bottomline: The unique design will make it as an eye catcher in any kitchen. The price are not bad as well...
