This product takes the messiness out of lighting and putting out candles. It not only trims the candle but also catches the used wick.

It’s a rather long wick trimmer but a little thick (especially for smaller candles), but trims really well - overall would recommend!

I'm 100% pleased with this item. Does exactly as advertised, easy to use, and I especially like how the clipped, burnt wick rests nicely atop the small round disc of the closed scissors to allow you to drop the waste neatly into the trash without dirtying your hands. Great little gadget.

I really like this wick trimmer. Solid construction and it feels smooth in the hand. Especially like the little "shelf" that catches the trimmed wick so you can dispose of it. Found out the hard way (blackened wall/ceiling!) that you need to keep wicks trimmed if you burn candles a lot. This one works really well!

I bought this to remove the mushroom tops off my burnt candle wicks. These trimmers make it easy to reach down into tall candle jars without getting messy wax all over your hand, and it snips and catches burnt wick ends so easily. It's also super sturdy and well made. The only con I can note is that the edges are a little sharp and squeezing the handles can sometime hurt your fingers. Overall, this is a great investment.

Great tool for trimming wooden wicks.Not so handy for cotton wicks which I hoped would do both.Overall it's handy to have for container candles with wooden wicks.

This candle wick trimmer is an elegant matte black and it performs exactly as it should. Not only does it reach into deep candle holders and cleanly cuts the wick, it also catches the wick cuttings. I have yet to buy a candle snuffer or a candle dipper, yet this product alone has allowed me to extend the life of my candles until the full wick has burnt out. I would highly recommend!

I didn't even know these existed, and had been wrecking pairs of scissors and littering my candles with burnt ends of wicks for years... Then somehow I found out about the Wickman! The tool works quite well and makes it easy to get the trimmed wick end out of even the deepest votives. Solidly made and the matte black looks very nice as well. Yes, it's a one-purpose tool, but there is something so satisfying about using this tool when you trim the wick. That sounds weirdly like innuendo and now I feel weird about fetishizing it. But still happy I bought it.

We love burning candles in our house, and I have learned from experience that trimming the wicks regularly makes a huge difference in keeping them burning evenly and efficiently. This wick trimmer works very well. It is very sturdily built, and easy to use. It is also very pleasing to look at. I think it's a nice tool to have around the house, and well worth the money I paid.

As a candle aficionado, I've been using scissors for years to trim the wicks of my candles. I was searching for another item when I came across this wick trimmer. For some reason I decided to go ahead and purchase it. I can honestly say that this purchase is going to save me money. Wicks are supposed to be trimmed to 1/4 an inch to optimize burning and with a typical pair of scissors, this is fairly impossible to do with jar candles. With this wick trimmer, I am able to trim the wick to 1/4th of an inch with ease. I notice the flame on my candles is more even and the candle itself burns longer. I have less soot and dust around the house, and I'm very pleased with my purchase. I thought that this was just a gimmick, but it really isn't. I would definitely recommend this well made wick trimmer to all!

Over the past few years, I have become a candle connoisseur. I love the smell of the candles wafting through the rooms, the flickering of candles at night, and the warm homey sense it gives my apartment. But I hadn't gotten a candle trimmer because A) I didn't know I needed one for the longest time, B) I tried to trim with scissors or a knife (let's just say, that isn't as successful as it sounds), and C) there weren't many economical types in the places I looked for one. Finally, I broke down and bought this one through Amazon.I wasn't totally sold on the color (I prefer silver or pewter), but let's face it, that's aesthetics and doesn't really matter when boiling down to function.The product is sturdy and adequately long. I've had no problems trimming wicks in my deepest, most empty candle jars. The scissor function seems to be a bit gummy, but I've had no troubles actually trimming the wick (no awkward "sawing" to trim the wick). I'd been told to position the trimmers, so that a 45 degree angle is formed when the base of the trimmer is resting on the wax, but I have never been able to actually manuever my trimmer into that position. It just hits the side of the jar. I've resortted to just eyeballing it to the proper trimmed length. So far, that seems to be working fine.Overall, I like the price and it works great. Sure, it's not the color I really would have wanted, but when it does its job and doesn't look like it's about to break in the next few days, I'm a happy camper.Brought to you by:*C.S. Light*
