Review on DRomance Flameless Flickering Operated Halloween by Nathan Theriault

Advantages: Battery compartment is easily accessible, no problem inserting batteries in a lockable compartment. All three batteries glow well and flicker. (See below) (Can't speak to battery life because I just received them) Cons: The candles I received had NO protective plastic coating, just wax!. This is a problem for me. Even if they are only used during the Halloween season, maybe 2 weeks? they will be dirty and dusty. As already mentioned, the lower part of the candles is slightly chewed. The pattern on all three candles I received does not reach the bottom of the candle by about a quarter of an inch. It turns out that the bottom edge of all three is gnawed! Two of the three candles have perfect pictures but the one with the bat is a bit faded and has a huge grey/black stitching line 1/2" top to bottom :( I received the candles today, they were supposed to be a birthday gift but they came 2 days late It happens that the post is sometimes late these days - but maybe that's a good thing, I'm not sure I'd still give it away as a gift.
