Nighthawk Craft Supply 8 Quart (16 lb) Candle Wax Melter with Spout and Temperature Control for Optimal Candle Making Review

The spout clogs when the paraffin is gone and the wax doesn't come out of the spout when you put it back in! 30 minutes and a lot of trouble! Not a good design.

My only complaint about this product is that the valve lever needs to have a rubber coating or something as it gets very hot when trying to open it by hand. Frankly, it's dangerous.

Nose problem. The spout stopped working the first time I used it. Halfway through, as I was using the spout to pour melted wax into my blender pitcher, the spout began releasing just a drizzle and eventually nothing. The discontinuation feature was the only reason I bought this product. I could save so much money just by buying a presto pan and using a ladle.

This product has increased our productivity immeasurably. The faucet only clogs before the wax is completely melted (get it!), but otherwise the quality is perfect. I love that someone has taken the lead in developing a much needed candle making tool. I would recommend this to anyone tired of melting down on three pounds at a time. I only wish I had found it sooner! Thanks very much!

A spout would be nice but you can buy one without a spout at Walmart for $29.99 and use it just as easily. Or even add a spout yourself. Adding a spout doesn't really cost _129.00. For _159 you can get a 40 quart Digiboiler model with spout and low temp control with digital thermostat. When making long candles, don't use anything that grows too fast.
