Description
To enjoy your candles to their fullest, a certain amount of care is required. Keeping their wicks trimmed properly will help your candles burn fully and last longer. Specifically, your candle's wick should be trimmed after every 4 hours of burn time. Let the candle come to room temperature, then trim the wick to 1/8-inch before relighting. That length helps create complete combustion, which means less soot is formed while the candle is burning. This is where our Perfect Wick Trimmer comes in - place the bottom of the trimmer flush with the candle surface, rock the trimmer back so that its "elbow" rests on the surface, this keeps the trimmer at a 45-degree angle and helps ensure the cut is to the proper length. Simple! Enjoy your candles and their fragrances, then repeat again after every 4 hours of burn time.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wick trimmer - Love it This tool is wonderful. It cuts the wick down to the perfect height with ease. Prior to my purchase, I used scissors and it was pretty awkward due to the angle. I still would have soot build up. I bought a second one to take to work.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic trimmer We purchased this wick trimmer a few years ago and loved it. Very sturdy, angled nicely to fit into all different candles, and attractive.
