    Don't know... it's always been around that.
    Compared to others.. yes.
    Compared to itself... no.
    Plus... I don't use it that often.

    I have the Accentra and it seems to take much longer than 3 minutes for me. Also, I think these results are going to vary as cleanliness of the stove is going to play a big factor in how fast it ignites.
