The proper tool makes every task easy. This is the essential one for maintaining your candle's wick properly. Our heavy-duty metal wick trimmer clips wicks to the perfect length to ensure a clean, even flame for a longer-lasting candle and maximum fragrance. Long enough to reach the bottom of our Original Large Jar Candles, the Perfect Wick Trimmer's design also easily lets you remove the clipped wick safely. You can't do that with a pair of scissors!

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.

A must if you are a candle enthusiast
This makes trimming the wick so much easier than with scissors. My candles burn more evenly when they are trimmed. This is a must if you are a candle enthusiast.

Perfect Wick Trimmer
Highly recommend this wick trimmer. It cuts the wick just right so the wick does not mushroom (which will cause the candle to not burn properly).

Every candle lover needs one
So happy with wick trimmer that I bought three more to give to all the candle lovers in my family. This gadget makes a much cleaner cut than scissors, is easier to use, and allows you to get to the wick even when candle is low. Gave it four stars because I wish they came with instructions. Store manager gave me some good pointers on how best to use this tool to trim wick perfectly.

Definitely trim it before use and every few hrs. It helps the candle burn more evenly and you won't get burned off pieces of the wick in the wax

I believe that it is. In any event, it is made well and made to last. I've had mine for years now and I couldn't do without it. It's a simple tool that will be handed down...

These are extremely easy to use. I have had mine for over two years, have used them multiple times, and have never had any issues with them being difficult. I would highly recommend.&nbsp;

I have switched over for the most part to the Large Pillar Candles, and now realize the wick trimmer won't fit once you're down to the last couple of inches in the large pillars. I have average to small hands and still can't make it work.
