Must Read
After reading these reviews I decided I would try this.Everyone talks about using them separate.I believe they are meant to go together to give you more power and reach.At first you think they will not go together but push the larger one down into the back of the smaller one.Hold them so they do not collapse and you will find they lock together.

Nice selection of pocket bellows
First off, let’s get the most basic question folks have out of the way. Yes, these “pocket bellows” work, and they work surprisingly well once you understand how and when to use them. They aren’t necessary at all for starting a fire, but they are a nice extra piece of kit to have on hand, especially when trying to revive a fire from hot coals. I always carry one when I’m outdoors. They are light, compact, and handy.I have a couple of sets of pocket bellows, one from the brand name seller and one generic version from an Amazon seller. Both are the same size and appear to have similar quality. I ordered these based on the photo and thought there was a smaller “mini” version that I could toss in my pocket kit. Turns out that the smaller one is the typical size and the other is a larger version. I’ll admit that it’s likely I simply didn’t pay enough attention to the product description, so I’m not blaming the seller at all. That said, the quality of these seems consistent with the other sets I have and the larger version gives you a bit more reach so you don’t need to get as close to the fire as with the smaller version.This set also comes with a nice quality carry pouch that can be clipped on your gear for easy access. I’m also a fan of the blaze orange color so it stands out against the ground if you set it down or drop it. Overall, no complaints at all.

Great deal. Nice quality tool to have
Good day to all,This is a great tool to have in your fire kit for backpacking, camping, survival, etc. These very simple devices are great for increasing the air flow into your ember while starting the fire and for increasing the heat of an existing fire for certain task like cooking or boiling water.These are also fantastic for re-ignition of a hot coal bed from a previous fire.Stainless steel so it’s durable and ready when you need it.At 23” extended for the larger one (5cfm) its perfect for managing and working with a bigger fire like a campfire. At Just over 15” the smaller diameter one (8cfm) has better output for increasing heat in portable cookstoves and smaller cooking campfires.These come in a nice nylon pouch with carabiner to keep them clean and easily accessible when needed. Priced right for a great deal. You won’t be sorry for your purchase of these.Lastly, I will mention again that PSKOOK does a wonderful job of customer service should there be any questions or issues.It you want any particular questions answered or further personal use testimony look me up at Mosher Ridge Ky on Facebook.Update: Over a year later and these still perform great. Have used them countless times. Love them.

Tiny and Effective
The small bellow is 20g, and the large is 35g. Backpacking the PNW is rough if you can't get your fire to light. This makes that process easier. Do I NEED this product for UL Backpacking? No ... but I really like it. This is now part of my permanent fire kit. My kit also includes several tumbleweeds fire starters, a bic lighter, and some scraps of cardboard.

No more smoke in my eyes
Time to get those coals going again in the campfire or woodstove? Tired of blowing smoke in your eyes? These things are great. I thought they would be a toy that would see no real use, but now one lives with the camp gear and the other lives by the wood stove. Would absolutely buy again. Nice simple, lightweight solution to an annoying problem.

Great product but…
Great little product! I know what you’re thinking. “Oh I can blow on a fire and get the same results.” You’d be right but with this you can keep the fire at a safe distance and get more air where you need it. My only issue is it’s technically not a bellows it’s more of a blow tube but if you can’t tell that by the picture then you shouldn’t be okay with fire if you know what I mean! Great thing definitely a good part of my fire making kit!

Good Camp Fire and Charcoal Tool
Ive been needing one of these for a while. Nice tool to help stoke a fire and very compact and storable. Im the guy who is good at blowing on a camp fire that is just getting going or barbecue briquettes that are just getting going. I often bring/use a cordless mattress inflator to get a fire going. With this tool I can still use the mattress inflator or even just my lungs to get air moving into the fire and heat it up.This particular product has two sets that are different sizes and they can be connected if needed to make an even longer tube. I really like this product!

If you deliver fuel oil, this is a must have!
The reason why, I you keep this item on you, and happen to come across a bad vent pipe with either a whistle being bad or none at all, it keeps you from walking back to the truck and grabbing the copper pipe, pump on slow, etc and the customer still gets their product delivered. It also gives them time to get around to fixing it (if they ever do) without freezing their house.I was looking for a product like this for a long time under telescopic pipe and this is definitely it! It can be used for something other than what it is marketed for!

Can't be around a fire without one
These are so effective. My daughter and I would fight over who gets to hold and use it. Now we have our own. Don't store it for too long in the plastic tube ( months or longer) as your spit and any other moisture has no where to go and will form its own signs of life. Clean it once in a while since you put your lips on it.
