A very good and safe substitute for real candles.
After reading a mixture of reviews by other customers I decided to take a chance on these. At first I thought the flickering mechanism was a bit naff, but I found, after a few evenings of getting used to them, they seemed quite natural. I think there is a tendency to stare at the new toy at first and you focus on any faults, but when they fade into the background, in a manner of speaking, they become a very pleasant, quite realistic, and perfectly safe decoration. All they lack is the smell of burning candle wax. I think what I would do is use these as background, dotted around the room perhaps, with real candles used for table decorations.You have to provide two AA batteries for each candle, and I don't know how long they last, but I get the impression from what I've read and past experience of LED torches that they should last several hundred hours, which suits me.I'd recommend them. Don't expect them to be 100% indistinguishable from real candles, but in my view they're not at all a bad imitation. It's hard to see how they could be any better, so they get 5 stars from me.

Nice flames, shame about the noise
The brightness and flame effect of the candles are good, but the overall effect is ruined by the constant clicking sound of the plastic flame. I can't begin to understand how anyone could enjoy these with the constant 'tick-tick-tick-tick' in the background. Perhaps you could get used to it in time, but there has to be a better solution out there. A shame.

Simply the best out there..... Fabulous
Been looking for realistic “fake” candles for a large lantern for ages. After reading the reviews decided to give these a go. They are fantastic .... best I’ve seen anywhere. Like others commented, they would be even better if a bigger diameter but when the five are grouped together they give a wonderful, realistic flame glow..... the main joy of these is the fact that you need two AA batteries rather than the fiddly little penny/tiny button batteries, so if you get top quality at the beginning they last for simply ages. Like everything it depends how often you are putting them on but i bought these for a holiday home so we only use intermittently for a few hours at a time but so far they are perfect. I’ve bought two sets and the remote does both sets - the remote is a bit naff really but it does work - I find it best to direct it to each candle individually and they go on and off fine.... I’ve got them inside but have used them outside when having a BBQ and they are gorgeous. I have them on permanent flicker which I prefer as I think its more natural. The only downside is that they are real wax and as such if they are in the sun they will melt! As was commented “they look more real than ever now!”. Hmm..... !! Absolutely love them..... treat yourself you won’t be disappointed.

LOVE!
Love! Would ideally have liked the candles to be a bit fatter but the flickering effect makes them look real when lit. I initially couldn't get the hand control to work until I realised that I hadn't pulled out the small plastic sheet mentioned in the instruction booklet! After pulling that out, it still didn't work but after reinserting the special round battery that comes with it, it worked perfectly and has been giving myself and my family a lot of pleasure. It makes it so much easier to be able to turn the candles on and off with one press! Our candles are in our fireplace and really add to the ambience. I have given these 4 stars simply because I didn't find it easy to open the battery lid and neither did my husband. However, the benefit of this is that it stays closed with the battery inside! No smoke to make my daughter cough and no damage to ceiling paint from smoke effect. I'd definitely recommend them!

Lovely candles
We switched to flameless candles a couple of years ago after finding out that burning candles other than beeswax candles was carcinogenic 😭. We originally bought some lovely but very expensive Luminara frameless candles and had since tried a couple of other makes. Sadly the copies often gave off an unrealistic orange glow from the body of the candle. Your flameless candles however look pretty identical to the ones from Luminara (except they are a little narrower). They have very good functionality with a remote control and timed settings. I am sure that we will buy more in the future. We were delighted with the service from your company too.

Perfect for any occasion
Candles received in perfect condition, on time and well packaged. The real wax candles at different heights look great grouped together in a large lantern. Battery operated with control means you don’t have to keep turning them off at bottom. Used every night over a three week period and batteries were still going strong - look really realistic - will be buying another set for a family member - great price for a set of five!

Not overly impressed. They looked fake
Having read a lot of reviews on remote controlled fake candles, I eventually went for these because of the great reviews.I've got to be honest though, but I'm not impressed at all with these.They are very cheap and plasticy looking and they have an annoying ticking noise with the flickering effect. The flame looks very plasticy. They're not as wide as I'd have liked either.Only three of the five candles in my box actually worked, and it did look as if this box had been opened and possibly returned before.I've since bought a box of three cashmere remote candles from The Range, which are far superior and more realistic to these.Great returns service from Amazon.

It ok !
Good effect as long as its in a lantern ! one because the glass will help reflect the light better to more realistic glow and two because the clicking will otherwise drive you nuts! I have since tried spraying the plastic part that caches and makes the clicking noise with silicon spray and it has till some degree helped but the process needs repeating every now and then .
