Reviews of Candle Warmers Etc. Ceramic Candle Warmer Crock

Customer Ratings:

I purchased this because I was trying to go flame-less with my large-jar Yankee candles and do so quicker than standard warming plates, which take quite a while to melt such a candle. Well, this fit the bill alright. Within 15 minutes you can smell the candle wonderfully. A short while later, the whole jar is liquid. All that is great, but...

The very thing I wanted, speedy flame-less fragrance for an extended period of time, is also the main downside. It activates *all* the fragrance in the candle at all times. So, what you get is a strong fragrance for a much shorter period of time. Whereas a large jar Yankee candle will last a good 125+ hours, I got about 15 (yes, fifteen) hours of strong fragrance, which quickly declined thereafter until all I had was a jar of wax.

Since there's no temperature control, there's no way to prolong the candle life. After two candles, I no longer use the warmer. I gave it three stars because it does exactly what it claims and is definitely a great candle warmer. I suppose I should have foreseen the outcome as, in hindsight, it is clear that a full jar warmer would heat the entire contents at all times.

Two parting notes:

1) This would be great for using every last ounce of candle. The remnants that don't get burned via wick could be used in the warmer, but a little overkill.

2) Once you melt a candle in the warmer, the wick drops to the bottom when liquefied. Thus, it's a one-way road as you won't be able to burn the candle again.

Hope this helps.

I've had this warmer for about 6 months now, keeping it on almost 24/7, and it is still working great! I do recommend buying a bunch of Yankee votives (you can get them for $1 if you buy on sale) and I change out my votive daily. Whatever candle you put in the warmer will scent your home for a good 15-18 hours straight, whether it's a votive or larger jar candle. Votives are cheaper and you can change your scent daily (a big jar will still only last about 18 hours in this warmer) The warmer melts quickly, and starts releasing fragrance in about 3-5minutes (with a votive) I have a total of 2 in my home, we have an open floor plan and I put one in my living area, and one on my second floor It comfortably fragrances my whole home (I can even smell in the bathrooms) Just a note though: I tried putting in cheaper brand of votive, and soy votives the fragrance was a LOT more subtle and it only lasted about 6 hours.

UPDATE a year later and my warmers are still going strong on almost daily 24/7 :)

This is a little different way to make your room smell nice without having to light a candle. This warmer works best with the large candles, but even after many uses, the candle is still up to the top and it still smells very good. Each candle will last much longer than if you were burning the candle. There is no fear of a fire and no black soot on the ceiling or under the cabinets.

Honest reviews on Candle Warmers Etc. Ceramic Candle Warmer Crock

I purchased this warmer for a blind friend who loves her home filled with scents. The rolling "on-off" switch just a few inches down on the cord from the actual burner was a good feature for her. The unit seemed to heat up very quickly.

One of the major candle stores said they did NOT suggest this product because they've heard that the units get so hot that the jars surrounding the candles cracked. They further stated that the breaking occurs because even though the candle glass is tempered, they were designed to heat up from the center of the candle outward...so when we try to use these warmers there could be issues.

What I first did upon feeling the amount of heat generated was to roll up a square of tin foil to make a long curled snake to put under the candle jar so it wasn't in direct contact with the heater; still plenty of heat to melt the wax and give off the scent but not enough heat to crack the jar. There was a tiny space between the jar and the sides and I wasn't too concerned about too much hear from direct contact... So far so good, the true test of time will tell all.

Been looking for just the right candle warmer for a long time. This one is perfect for my preferences, which was a crock-pot style big enough to hold larger jar candles and didn't have a light in the base. Even when the melted wax has lost its scent, just add any liquid 'essence' and keep going. Hoping the warmer will last a long time.
