Review on Set of 5 Candle Impressions Ombre Design Pillar Flameless Candles - Real Wax, Auto Timer Feature - Buttercream by Samantha Davis

. As noted in several reviews, there are serious doubts that these are actually candle impressions. They look more like the cheap ones you get at the dollar store or something, not at all like the real ones - well made, thick wax, like the real candles I've been buying for a decade or more. I wanted more and was glad to see this "set". I should have listened to some of the reviews citing these very same concerns, but I didn't and was VERY disappointed with what I unwrapped. Either this is just a robbery, or CI has been sold and its quality thrown out the window in favor of more profit. Well THIS isn't going to happen when people realize how awful they are! Yes, the timer function is still the same, but the wax is thin, the colors are terrible, and overall it feels like a cheap fake. If this is indeed the case, Candle Impressions needs to take a look at some of their older products and make new products that are more similar to them. I was planning on gifting a few of these but I will never give someone such a poor quality gift. If putting them all back in the correct slots and sending the package back wasn't such a problem I would be sending them back. Buyer Warning! If you've been using Candle Impressions for a long time, I seriously doubt you'll like them.
