How many briquettes can you fit in this?

Way more than you would ever need. It’s almost too big.

Can you light it without a torch? Can you light it with just matches?

You can light your charcoal with just a match and some balled up newspaper. The charcoal ends up uniformly hot after about 10 minutes. No need for fluid or torches. The folding design sacrifices some functionality and durability to the traditional round charcoal chimney design, but it is a space saver. We use it for camping when space is at a premium in the trunk. The carying bad is nice too

How many charcoal briquettes can I fit in this charcoal chimney?

I would say 3/4 of a normal chimney.

Does top have a grill so you can grill right on it?

No it doesn’t but that would be a nice feature
