Enhanced UCO Original Candle Lantern Value Pack: 3 Candles + Storage Bag for Unmatched Convenience Review

The lantern shines well and heats well from above. The product is small and compact, it's a really neat design. I only had one major issue with it and the only issues I had was the bottom was a little loose and the expandable top when it needs to be snapped in is quite flimsy and the hotter it gets the weaker it seems. The candle is very well protected, so the flame does not flicker and the light is even. It's not bad at all. I have a video above to show you the product.

I received my first UCO candle lantern just after the Northridge LA earthquake. We were stuffed into a van after the house was vandalized and we needed a light source. The little brass lantern was built like a tank and has served me well for over 2 decades. I just don't have it anymore because I lost it when I moved. I just got around to replacing it with a green one. The item fell apart in my hands when I took it out of the box. It took a few tries to put it back together and it rattles when…

Can't say enough good things about the candle lantern. *Disclaimer, I don't think you should use it in a tent, but it really shines there (no pun intended). I do a lot of fall/spring hiking and it takes the pressure off when you're camping on the cusp of freezing. It's not magic, it won't burn forever and keep the tent warm like a heater, but it will take some of the sting out of it on a chilly night. Also, you can hang your socks on it and they will dry overnight. Haven't lit the tent yet…

I know it's a 'gadget' but I really wanted to like it. I didn't expect nine hours of work, but three was an unpleasant surprise. I burned it in my office so conditions were perfect ie no wind. The wick actually burns for more than three hours, though not much more, but the flame is so weak from the melted wax that it provides no useful light. The price is too high for what is advertised compared to what you get. Buy with what you have at your own risk. I think the cheaper LED bulb is better in…

Let me start by saying that this is a review of a single lamp, not candles, bundles or Amazon (which is excellent). I really wanted to like this lamp. I'm a fan of a lot of UCO stuff, own their matches, containers and love their new cookware, but this lamp, their trademark, is pretty poorly made. It's no exaggeration to say it belongs to a dollar store. Let me explain why. (Please use the photos for reference): I noticed that the top doesn't close straight, the poles were bent, one leg doesn't…

I purchased the UCO Aluminum Candle Lantern over 4 years ago but have had no reason to use it. Then the weather report promised a strong storm. So I pulled out the flashlight. I had to read the manual twice to fully understand how to set it up and use it. But after reading it, it made sense and worked well. The top part that goes up was a little difficult to make. I'm not sure the guides were as smooth as they could be. But it opened without much pressure. I marked the time when I lit the…

This flashlight is so simple and so cool. Really light and very small. I can even keep it in my pocket. The glass appears to be quite strong despite being glass. So if you're not careful, it will shatter like every normal glass ever made. Hopefully the people complaining about glass will think about it. It's not Pyrex and it's not safety glass, so it will break. While I think they should have made it out of Pyrex I have no idea why they didn't as it is superior to regular glass in every way…

I bought this for a power outage and maybe camping use. I'm an experienced hiker with candles, not much. Candles are unbeatable for warm light and relaxing glow. An LED headlight can easily surpass it in terms of persuasiveness and usability. I lit the included candle to see how long and well it worked. The candle is rated to last 9 hours and I got over 12 of them. I thought I was getting a "Made in USA" product as several descriptions and comments clearly state "Made in USA". I saw the "Made…
