I have been using a Char-Griller Charcoal Grill Chimney Starter with Quick Release Trigger. I also have a Weber.

After about a year's use the bottom simply fell out, spilling all of the coalson the ground. Fortunately the coals were not yet lit, but it could have been a big problem if they were. Examined the design - after the fact - and there's no real hinge, just a couple of bent metal tabs that gave way.
I then looked for something more substantial and bought this stainless steel chimney. It's bigger than most and very well made. Brushed stainless and no sharp edges. Hopefully it will last a longer. I also like the added capacity.

The Weber is still ok, yes?
