Review on Smtyle Battery Operated Flameless Flickering by Shannon Smith

UPDATE: ONE YEAR LATER - Each candle is still going strong. The batteries in each have been replaced about 3 times in the last year under warm, cozy candlelight at night. After a few months one of the 9 candles would not light until I tapped it lightly. A week later I changed the batteries and voila! No more tapping on the candle after turning on the remote control. I have 3 sets at home. And I'm still ONLY using the FIRST remote I unboxed. I thought the batteries in the remotes might be dead so I saved the other remotes for future use if remote #1 dies. But he's not dead yet! It still works about 5-8 feet from the candle I light. All in all I'm buying more and can't wait for them to arrive. It would be desirable to buy a few more large and individual candles (please add them to the collection!), but that's no reason to shoot stars. I'm in love. The original review is below - 1) If you're looking for something that will make someone think you spent $100 on three PB candles, then buy it. 2) if you are looking for something that will warm your heart. with a REAL FLICKING LIGHT that dances on the wall behind your candle, giving it a perfectly legal look without the soot we all hate to paint over and then buy every few years. 3) I have been against "false flame" candles for many years. But with kids and an undeniable love for candles. A few years ago I broke down and bought flickering candles with black wicks. I loved having a house full of sconces and hurricanes that turned on a pretty warm light every night when we sat down to dinner and did our homework. But no flickering light on the wall :( no dancing flame in a glass wind :( I loved my warm candle at home but something was missing. 4) The other day I went to PB looking for something to decorate my Christmas pine garland on the fireplace and my eye is fixed on the flickering candles wow you've seen a huge improvement in the past few years BUT HOLY NOZ dessert and tell me my ass looks great in big sweatpants while I watch reruns of matlock couch? Because I don't spend that much money on something unrelated to me. Type the Revain search tool (over 200 reviews. Feels like I've found a safe bet) but for the price of 1/ 2 (HALF THE PEOPLE!) ONE PB CANDLE I took a chance and bought a pack of, oh wait, THREE DANCING SHINTER WALL HAPPY DOERS. I took a risk You arrived today. I can't comment on the durability (will be updated if necessary) of these villains, but I can say that my expectations were exceeded. Arrived quickly, great packaging to keep it safe and sound, the wax on the outside is high quality giving it the look/feel of a real candle, the remote control is just the funniest little "oh hey watch me how." I dim the candles, oh wait see how it goes I light up my whole room" toy. The dancing flame is so cool. I bought 2 boxes (that's 6 candles) to fill the Christmas fireplace/hearth decorate, and tonight I will buy 2 more boxes to replace the rest of the candles in them 6) The only thing I would like to change is: Larger sizes please offer one by one! I like the flat surface (the machines curved on top can look so artificial) and the dancing flames which are also reflected off the wall very strongly I would like some taller/taller lights for bigger lights throughout the house Overall: I'm so in love with Christmas Who would have thought you would decorate your house with candles in PB-Qu ality without breaking the bank!
