I have a gas stove that can be a bit fussy, and sometimes needs to be lit by hand. Traditional kitchen matches are so awkward. Honestly, I wasn't sure how the Motli Light would work but thought I would try. And it's great! Once charged with the USB, it was very intuitive to turn on and ignite, and works like a charm. I got the magenta color so I'd be able to find it easily on my gray/beige counter top!
