Q: For the people who say it is the best method ever, have you used a propane torch? If so, how is this better?

First I used a propane torch, then went to BGE fire starters and finally a Looflighter. It is a much quicker method of lighting charcoal vs. the two examples I listed. I love the fact you're not using any foreign substance to light the charcoal. Just hot air. You won't be disappointed.

Q: I live in an apartment complex and am trying to lessen the amount of smoke generated from lighting my charcoal grill. Will this do the trick?

As I understand, fire generates smoke, so if you are lighting charcoal, there will be smoke. However this Looftlighter does not generate flames. One of the best methods of lighting charcoal in a short period of time without the smell or flames of petroleum lighter fluid. I was looking for quick lighting of natural charcoal (without fluid or fluid soaked packaged charcoal) and this is an excellent charcoal fire starter. Highly recommend, well worth the investment.

Q: Does it work / have you used it with coal? (Anthracite for my coal stove, not charcoal). Coal is generally much harder to start than charcoal or wood.

I only used it with charcoal in a Komado Joe Grill; the type of charcoal is good quality as recommended by the manufacturer (their brand). This type of coal starts easily with typical coal starters (squares of compressed wood with wax). I bought the Looftlighter as a method of speeding up the process to light the coal - I was it on YouTube as a recommendation by users for quick starts to a komado style grill. Our experience is that it was not worth the time or money. Instructions show that you hold the wand near the coal and draw back after a few seconds and it begins to glow. the problem is that the glow is so small and the time it takes to fire up several pieces in the bowl, you could just throw in a few extra squares of fire starts and have the same effect. Komado style grills are designed for a reasonably slow heat-up to temperature before cooking. This is my experience; I don't know how it would translate to lighting a stove with anthracite.
