I have had my eye on this device for a few years, now, and I finally own one. I haven't had the chance to use it with anything other than char-cloth, so I cannot attest to its' ability to ignite them. I make char-cloth in such abundance, that I'll likely never need to find out. Char-cloth is easy to make. Instructions can be found on the internet. Insofar as igniting char-cloth, this item is bar none, the best. The free firesteel is a novelty to me, and little more than that. I have better firesteel, already, but I will keep it just in case all else fails.The wood of the piston is treated with the same resin found in knife handles and rifle stocks. The shaft of the piston is aluminum, as is the plunger of the piston. This makes the piston very consistent during ignition and less prone to wear and tear, than if the shaft were made of the same wood as the outside (or even the buffalo horn pistons they offer) It is best greased with chap stick, but petroleum jelly works well too. A tremendous issue when using fire pistons is that once the plunger is pulled from the piston, it will never fully insert again. What this, typically, means is that after the first use, the plunger and shaft must be carried separately, however Wilderness Solutions has solved this problem. This is their 2nd Generation design and there is a screw where the lanyard attaches that allows one to relieve the pressure of the piston, thus allowing the piston to be fully inserted and held in place by the suction. Cleaning the piston is a bit of a chore, but can be done with a Q-Tip or a pipe cleaner. This must be done to take care of the device and ensure that it will last a lifetime.
Lastly, this device is small. It will easily fit within the width of the hand. Care must be taken when using this device, lest one desires to jam their fingers each time (which prevents ignition due to the pain and the dropping of the piston). There are many companies that make similar devices, however, Wilderness Solutions was the highest rated that I could find and the device's lanyard makes it easy to carry.
