Review on ๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ Candle by the Hour 48-Hour Horizontal Candle: Eco-friendly Natural Beeswax with Cotton Wick - Long-lasting & Sustainable by James Jones

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A nice present! The metal is only faux copper (plated) so the finish probably won't last long.

As an engineer I had to test this candle I bought for my wife for her birthday to see how many minutes per inch it burns. The answer is only about 20 (as advertised) :) . Cons: The metal is not copper, just a copper-plated metal. At that price they should have used copper. In addition, the self-adhesive rubber feet are too thin and hardly stick to metal. The legs were also not level so I had to bend 2 of them to keep them from swinging. Maybe they'll release version 2.0 and pay a little more attention to detail and craftsmanship. Update: After the first burn, I found that the connector was wound on the spool too tightly, leaving dents in the thin connector about every inch. This means that the connector will most likely break at these points :(. I will contact the seller to ask about replacing the connector - I hope it's not that tight.

Pros
  • Excellent Overall
Cons
  • Doubtful
