Well what can I say apart from FABULOUS !!! I own the philips candles but wanted something a bit more realistic .Theres a few mooncandles for sale on amazon and I watched a few in my shopping basket before deciding on these as take notice that some mooncandles are all the same size, some are different heights which is what I ordered and also theres the smooth sided ones and the ones which look like dripping wax which I wanted, also the vanilla smell is great .Firstly theres a switch on the base of the candles which you just place to the on position, and pull the plastic tab out the top of the remote , and wow amazing, there are so many colour options, greens , red, blues, yellows, purples and you can have the colour still or flicker (on the mode button), also theres a multicolour button so it changes itself, so much fun, I havent tried the 4 hr or 8 hr button yet-not sure if you just press it the once to set it yet, will try that out tonight.The box was adequately packed as these are real wax and id noticed some reviews the candles arrived cracked but no problems with mine...I highly recommend these and will buy some more!
UPDATE DEC 11....They do seem to use a lot of battery power since Ive bought them ive had to change the batteries twice , but I still like them just need to stock up a bit on the batteries!
