Candles are shipped in nice sturdy reusable box
While I don't usually take the time to write reviews, I did want to help others in making their decision when looking for LED Flameless Taper Candles, as there is so many brands and styles available, this time of year. TIP: Know your product when comparing to others - this package of (8) candles ALREADY COME WITH 2 AA Batteries AND a quality suction cup with a clamp, to attach to window. Candles are shipped in nice sturdy reusable box. Candles are packed in thin plastic tray but NEATLY held each candle in it's place (so they are not banging around in your box) with the suction cups and remote control in their own compartment as well. remote control was inside a cellophane wrapper and also came with a battery. remote control and candles each had a plastic tab to remove, (this activates the batteries and prolongs shelf life.) the candle light is plastic and screws into the candle stick (unscrew it to remove the plastic red tab). the on and off switch is on the bottom of the candle. the base, while gold colored plastic, is nice quality with protective felt bottom and they STAND UP STRAIGHT! there is a nice weight to the candlestick, not hollow plastic that would easily fall over. though hard to see in my photo, the clamp actually screws into the suction cup and is a solid little gadget to attach to your windows, if you choose this option. suction cups were quality and not cheap - they were soft and none of them were bent, warped or flawed. One sheet of nicely prepared instructions, both sides are easy to read on quality paper. after removing each tab, turned switch to "on" position, pushed candle into the base and clicked "on" with remote. 7 lit up, one did not. I tried to unscrew and wiggle battery, twice, still no power. replaced the batteries with two new AA and the light turned on. The remote control has two timer options, 4 hour or 8 hour, and I especially like the "flicker" option for the electric flame. After placing in my window, they really do look like real flames that flicker. Overall, I am very pleased with this product and will purchase a second set. So if you're concerned about the cost, don't be. shipped on time, arrived in great shape, a quality product that includes batteries, suction cups and clamps as well as a nice box to store candles in if you choose to pack away after Christmas. I like mine so much, I may leave them up all year! I hope you find my review and photos helpful. Let your light shine!
