Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
I love this candle and holder, it is very unique and is also well made. I'm not sure we are even going to burn the candle, we have it on a credenza in the dining room where it seems to fit in perfectly.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
We love burning candles and this candle is effective with bugs and it looks great.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
The product is attractive when not in use and effective when it is. The drawback is that you must be available to reset the wick when it burns down. It is good at repelling insects without being too odorous.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
I ordered three of these - two as gifts and one for my own use. The candle smells great and I am looking forward to using it[...]
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
easy to set up
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
I was deceived by the size shown in picture. Most of the candle is made up of foam inserts that when removed considerably diminishes size by about 3/4. I would have to order refills to use the stand, but am extremely unhappy about paying the price because of the deceptive size of the actual candle in the picture shown.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Great addition to the patio table, but a bit hard to move the candle when it burns down.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
This rope candle is uniquely beautiful. When entertaining our guests often ask where we found it. I doest a great job keeping mosquitoes away.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Does as advertised
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
I love this product. It effectively controls mosquitos and adds elegance to my courtyard. There were reviews indicating it was difficult to maneuver the rope candle, but I didn't find this to be the case. I can't begin to say how many times guests have complimented the look of the candle. I ordered one for a friend's birthday and she loved it.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Looks pretty, glass makes it safer, plus the wind does not put it out as fast.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Bought two of these and used them for a Labor Day weekend party. Received many compliments on how nice they looked on the tables.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Not only was this a stunning addition to our new deck, but it really did keep the insects away! Now that Fall is here, I have moved it inside, and it looks just as nice there. I'd like more similar choices to use for gifts. Who doesn't love to receive a candle?
I'm disappointed that refills are not available! Can't that problem be solved?
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
The candle and stand look good, but are not practical. When you light the candle, the candle only burns a short while before you have to adjust the clamp. However, you cannot adjust the clamp to keep the candle burning, because the clamp sinks too far into the softened wax. It does seem to keep the bugs away.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
as a bug deterent on our patio

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
This candle is gorgeous. However, it burns very quickly and the wax drips everywhere. You have to adjust the wick up every 10 minutes, which I find annoying. I don't even burn it anymore because of that. It looks great, and I have had many compliments on it, but it is not a product I would buy again.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Candle is effective, and I would highly recommend getting the glass dome to go over the candle. IT is quite attractive when assembled. The instructions were lacking. The candle comes packed in plastic foam, I assume to help keep its shape. There is no mention in the instructions as to what to do with the foam - remove it or leave it as is to help keep the shape on hot hot days??? Also, I am not quite sure I have the technique figured out as to how to advance the wick - instructions should have been more clear about this as well.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
...but you ran out of them! The clear glass cylinder allows full view of the 'techno' devise that holds the rope candle in place. It's simple and elegant. It's a stand-alone beautiful piece.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
I was impressed by the good quality. I have not used it very much yet but am sure it will work out well.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
This is a delightful conversation starter and keeps those pesky mosquitoes away as well. We have had our delightful "courting candle" for several summers and we still haven't use the second candle. This one was purchased as a gift for a friend who admired the unusual design.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Such a beautiful candle for your outdoor entertaining that keeps the bugs at bay. A conversation piece that all my guests love.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
The citronella rope candle is simple and elegant. It does double duty by making a nice conversation piece on my patio and keeping the bugs away.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
We used this in the center of the picnic table, and it burned much faster than we expected, even with the glass chimney in place and being careful not to have the wax too high. It kept away all the bugs, though. Nice aroma. Not too strong so no one objected as with other citronella candles we have used.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
The Citronella Rope Candle is guaranteed to get compliments! It has a nice natural citronella smell, not chemical at all. People always seem it enjoy looking at this candle. It is a little difficult to feed the rope into the holder, but warming the rope in your hands first seems to keep it from cracking when you bend it.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
This candle looks lovely on our outside table and the citronella smell is pleasant. However, moving the candle along after it burns down to the holder-thingie is very difficult. And since it is a thin candle, it burns down kind of quickly, so one has to struggle with the holder and getting the coiled candle to move up for further burn. Nice idea, attractive, but not very practical.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Wick burns fast. Pulling up the wick is a but messy and you should not do it when its hot

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Should have known that the Houston heat would melt the coil after a short time outdoors. It is sure attractive, but not for this climate.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
It gives a romantic light to my patio, and I
enjoy the glass globe and stand. I have not seen
one like it before. It also helps with mosquitos
and insects when we sit out. Thank you for your
good taste.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
This citronella candle does not smell like any citronella candle I've ever had. It has a very strong, almost petroleum smell to it. I suspect this is some synthetic compound developed in China, where this candle comes from. Also, I don't think this is real beeswax either. The idea is good--I had originally seen one of these in Sundance catalog for tons more money. It's also difficult to move the candle up when you need to feed more into the holder. The wax is pretty stiff at normal room temperature. All-in-all I wouldn't recommend this product.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
When I bought the candle, I thought the clamp mechanism turned on its own, but in fact, it doesn't so you do have to watch it so that it can be re positioned every 15 minutes or so. The citronella is great though, very powerful. My deck is about 15x30 feet and it helps clear out the mosquitos quite well when we have guests out back!
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
the rope was too hard to manipulate and get to the right length. If it was warm --it was too soft. If cold, too hard.

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
The candle is sitting on our table in our screened room. We use it every time we have company on the deck. It always raises the question of what it is and where we got it. You are getting a lot of free promotion. We do enjoy the candle and have a refill for it which should easily last the whole season. Good job.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
This item came during the winter months, so attractive and fragrant, the my wife and I displayed it on the piano until the spring
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Purchase as a Christmas gift for a friend who totally loves and enjoys using the candle.
Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
Love the citronella rope candle I don't have to worry about forgetting to blow it out and we use it on our deck and with all the rain this summer it is getting lots of use

Comments about Citronella Rope Candle:
We have stored our candle in the garage when not in use. We find the odor keeps bugs away! It's quite a conversation piece. We ordref the cotronilla one after having a plain one.
