Well I researched this product before purchasing and read many reviews including quick melting smudges. I found some UCO citronella candles on the spot and took the white candle out of the box so I wouldn't make the same mistake as the others. I read the instructions over and over again and after making sure my flashlight was set correctly, I lit the blue candle. with great joy and anticipation that I shall be enjoying the success of the Lantern by so many other reviewers. After about 30 minutes, thick black smoke began to emanate from the lantern, and once the lantern had cooled enough to handle, such a mass of molten wax formed. and soot everywhere. After completely cooling everything thoroughly cleaned and restarted. This time I got about 45 minutes of perfect burn to melt. I'm not sure if the problem is with the candle, the lantern, or both? I will be returning this in search of another option. Suggestions are welcome.
