Review on Christmas Advent Candle Set U S by James Cross

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Nice but dirty and burns out very quickly

Looks good, had no problems with the outer paint chipping and indeed as the candle cools the paint fills in the white centre. If I hadn't been told they had a white center, I wouldn't have known. These candles make a mess because they burn out so quickly and run down the sides into the candle holder. Although we light them for 20-30 minutes a day, they don't last the whole of Advent. Next time we shop we will look for larger candles with a small/tapered base to match our wreath. These narrow ones just can't hold the hot wax up, so the wick burns slower and lasts longer, not to mention making a mess.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • embarrassing
