Hey...I got my three Williams-Sonoma grill lighters this weekend and they are super nice! Very classy sleek design and in their original packaging so they're perfect for gift giving! Works great too! It's a blow torch! If these show up again..I recommend everyone order a set or more..you won't be dissapointed!!! I'm going to order more when they show up again..as long as I don't miss it!

Good to know! I was afraid they would be crappy, as someone posted a link to a set of lighters on Amazon.com that were similar to these TF flung at us, because those reviews were horrible. Is the switch on the lighter difficult to ignite? THat was the issue in the reviews on Amazon. I may grab some up in the future, but first, i've got to get a job! 25 flings and counting!
THING FLING...THEY'RE GGGGREAT!

Yeah..the switch is tight actually..you have to push with a little pressure..but once you know how much pressure..it's not hard at all..just the first light since you don't know how much pressure to put in there..plus there's always that fear with the first light of the backfire explosion in your hand..but that's just me! *grin*
Otherwise it's a beautiful lighter...nice sleek modern design and can be left out and not look tacky like those bic ones sold in grocery stores..having the switch tight like that is probably a good thing since a kid could never get it lit! Might be that way because of kids..if it was too loose and easy...might be a problem. It's a torch!

nice review! I flung a set this weekend after our camping trip ended Wednesday and the 'BBQ' lighter I used failed to work reliably with lots of butane remaining.
I figured nothing William's-Sonoma could be craptacular.
Your review puts the cap on it. I look forward to being satisfied with my three lighters ( camping, BBQ, fireplace?). THIRTY-SIX Flings

Yup! I love mine..did you get yours yet? A few people didn't like them..don't know what the problem was except they didn't come filled! but what refillable lighter does come filled? Only Bic lighters come filled as far as I know. Hope you like yours as much as I like mine! It even looks nice sitting out next to a candle in my living room..stylish instead of a crappy disposable lighter..it's part of the decor!

My July-4th-week-box-of-purchases-and-specials (and my lighters) came today. I'm still going through it. I opened one lighter, and when clicked, a small flame came out for a second, but it wasn't filled ( so maybe it was a return-but the packaging and lighter was sealed.). I'll need to get the butane somewhere. can't wait. One is destined to light my BBQ, one maybe for the fireplace, and maybe the third one to light incense ... ? 
what else? Like you say, they can become part of the decor. I hope they work for me well as they look.THIRTY-SIX Flings
