Costco Kingsford Utility Lighters Review
These Costco Kingsford Utility Lighters come in a pack of five which is perfect for using a few, and keeping some extras around the house.
There is nothing worse than looking everywhere when you need a lighter. I always like to have at least a few at my house for lighting candles and the BBQ.
For the last couple weeks I have actually been looking for some new lighters for my candles. I even checked a few other stores and they were all out of stock.
When I spotted this pack of lighters at Costco for less than $6, I knew I needed to buy them! Normally I buy the actual candle lighters, but I figured that these would work too.

What is Included
The Costco Kingsford Utility Lighter pack has a total of 5 butane lighters. There are 3 standard utility lighters and two wind resistant flame lighters with a flexible head.
Included is a green, blue and orange standard lighter, and two red flame resistant ones that are flexible.
Each of the utility lighters has a clear plastic see-through window to see how much fuel is in the cell. The lighters also all have child safety locks.
What I Loved
I really loved that you get 5 lighters in the pack for only $5.69. For just over a dollar a piece I think that this pack of lighters is a great deal.
I have purchased similar packs in the past at other stores and they are normally around $5 for just two lighters.
What I Didn’t Love
When I had originally grabbed this pack of lighters I thought that they were all just standard lighters.
I didn’t realize that two of them were wind resistant ones.
While I just prefer the standard ones because I use them mostly for lighting my candles, if you are someone that uses or prefers wind resistant lighters, then this would be a good thing.
Another thing that I didn’t really love was that the lighters were not that comfortable to hold and they felt a little bit cheap.
While this might just be because I am used to the ones that I normally buy, this doesn’t affect how they work at all. They all worked really great!

Final Thoughts
While these aren’t my favorite lighters that I have purchased, I think that these are a really great deal for the price.
I also think that it is convenient to have a large pack like this, so that you can have extra lighters on hand when you need them!
