I use the following warmers;
20 watt glade warmer in my office
20 watt glade warmer in my family room
20 watt glade warmer in my kitchen
20 watt glade warmer in my son's room
20 watt Scentsy Stargazer warmer in my bedroom (Light Bulb)
25 watt Happy Wax warmer in my living room
15 watt Happy Wax warmer in the laundry room bathroom
15 watt Happy Wax warmer in the main bathroom


The opinions I put here are my opinions/experiences only. I fully urge each and everyone of you to form your own opinions/experiences on vendors for yourself by placing an order and getting a de-stash. Candles have many aspects to them and if I say I had a hard time burning one candle that doesn't mean the rest from the same vendor will be like that.


Candles;

Brand; Hudson 43
Purchased from JoAnn's
Scent; Cafe Au Laid
Scent Description; None listed but this was a bakery coffee type scent
Thoughts; It was hard to get it going. The wicks seemed a bit small and I had to use a lid for the majority of the burn in order to get the burn even. It did smell wonderful and the scent traveled. After a bit the wicks started to travel together while it was burning
