Title: Not as good as hoped
Product review: I am a collector of coleman lanterns. I have always used them when fishing and camping. I have 35 lanterns and camp stoves. Most of them are old,but work fine. My daughter bought this lantern at Amazon for me as a Christmas. It is the hardest lantern I have ever had to light. It smokes really bad for several minutes before the generator gets hot enough to vaporize the gas. Finally,after much smoking the mantle gets bright. I love Coleman products,but this one needs more fine tuning. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. I will stick with the old one's. I got a really nice one at a yard sale today for $5.00. It works like they are supposed to.
