and again, is pretty much what you should expect for the money. I'd give it a 5/5 stars, but it's a pretty generic lighter. I certainly wouldn't go down to 3 stars for any reason. A very good, utilitarian lighter that does it's job. Get one!

In this day and age, buying a lighter should be a sure thing. Manufacturers have had years to perfect this technology since it was invented to ensure that lighters well, light. Everyone but Scripto it seems. I purchased this exact lighter (green, in fact) only to have it fail over and over again.DO NOT BUY

I don't normally do a lot of product reviews but after standing out in pouring rain over my gas grill trying to balance the umbrella while attempting to get this thing to start, I'm motivated to help others avoid a badly designed product.Possibly the 'safety button' you are required to press before pulling the trigger to light the device is government mandate. For the sake of the engineers who designed this disaster, I hope so, because it is a terrible feature. It jams and prevents you from pressing the trigger. I'm a fit and mechanically inclined guy, but this morning I just couldn't get the thing to light in ~10 min of attempts. In the 3-4 previous instances I've used the lighter since the grill starter went bad, I've had similar difficulty but could always get it to work. Not today. No way an elderly or young person is going to be able to use it. Back to the drawing board Scripto. There has got to be a better way. In the meantime I will experiment with any and all other brands.
