  1. No one hurt

    Made Jul 20, 2011, published by CPSC Aug 11, 2011

    The product, in the report: Round soy wax candle in coconut shell.

    I bought two of these candles. They smelled lovely and looked ever so pretty. I brought them home and lit them. Here are a few observations.

    1) The flame gets wicked high, although trimming the wick helps. I was worried the flame would set the wooden container on fire at the slightest draft.

    2) When the candle finally burned down, I blew it out. When I picked it up, I noticed the wax had seeped through the wood and pooled on the kitchen counter. This isn’t the sort of behavior I like in a candle.

    3) With a lot of candles, you can take a minute to use the bathroom, make dinner, or fold the laundry while they burn--not this candle. I wouldn’t take my eyes off this candle for a minute.

    Maybe I’m just paranoid, but a candle where the wax seeps through the container doesn’t strike me as being safe. Maybe coconut shells are fireproof or something.
