“A friend gave me some GoFire Fire Starters to get my opinion on them. I’m a Deputy Fire Chief in a busy urban fire department. I’ve responded to a number of incidents where people have been injured or property damaged when ignitable liquids are used to start a fire. I have put GoFire through its paces and found it to be a reliable, efficient and effective way to safely light charcoal and outdoor fires without being subjected to the inherent dangers present when using lighter fluid or other ignitable liquids. As an outdoorsman, I’m looking forward to carrying GoFire in my backpack as my emergency fire starter. I have tested GoFire in damp conditions and I am confident that GoFire will be my best bet to get an emergency fire started while in the backwoods. GoFire packets are small and lightweight making them great for backpacking. The fact that each packet is totally consumed during use means no trash to pack and carry out.”

“This product is the real deal. As somebody who loves backpacking and overlanding, I've been searching for a product like this for a long time. I've tried Fat Wood Sticks, Instafire, various starter logs, and probably every type of lighter fluid under the sun; but these little GoFire pouches blow those products away in terms of reliability and ease of use. All you have to do is light the corner, and one tiny pouch will provide you with about 5 minutes of strong, high-energy flame. I've used these to start fires in my fireplace at home in Massachusetts as well as on-trail after 18 miles and a few inches of rain in Colorado. A few of these pouches have a permanent home at the bottom of every one of my packs.”

“Thank you guys for such a great fire starter. I was given a couple of these by a friend and was a bit skeptical as I’ve used commercial fire starters before that, quite frankly, were a joke. We’ve had a real wet and cold spring here in northern Maine and as a fishing guide, a fire is very important for guest safety and comfort. Both times I’ve built a comfort fire for my guests in the pouring rain, these starters worked quickly and effortlessly. I’ve used the two I was given, so please let me know how to get more. Keep up the great work and I’ll recommend this product to all my Maine Guide friends. Thanks again.”

“Best Fire Starters I have ever used. I put them to the ultimate test using damp kindling and wood after a couple of days of rain. I even dunked the fire starter packet in the lake right before placing it under the damp kindling to test out the products claims of being 100% waterproof. One second of a match flame dried the unique package surface and it lit right up. The resulting dense & long-lasting flame (I timed it at just over 8 minutes) from the fire starter was enough to drive off the outside dampness on my kindling and get the fire going first try, one match. I was impressed. I look forward to the convenience of these GoFire starters in my backcountry cabin and at home when wood burning season starts, I think they are going to save me a lot of kindling, which is often harder to get than the wood itself.”

“Due to strong North Texas winds, lighting fires can be a chore. I used GoFire for the first time after trying just about everything else out there with similar claims. Quite an amazing product! I had no issues lighting and maintaining an instant flame. Loved the fact that there was no waste and the package was actually the wick. The family was sitting around the fire pit enjoying s’mores in no time! Great product and will definitely recommend to my friends can't wait to try it lighting the smoker next time!”
