My first reaction out of the box was how small they were. If you're going to buy these, I think you need to get out a measuring tape and do a reality check on how big these things actually are. I anticipated something bigger. That was not these. I've never seen a real life candle in this size. They look like a childs version of the real thing.

If it weren't for the stench of fake vanilla, I would have loved these candles. There was no mention in the description or packaging that they are scented.

While I've seen other flameless candles in store, I never saw these very sweet, petite candles. Only downside they take a circular battery, not an AAAA or AAA. But really lovely size and realistic.

These do feel, look and smell(!) like real candles however once you switch on the flickering light it's obvious it's a battery candle. The flickering is nice but the orange industrial light color is really annoying and completely spoils the entire look - they look like joke candles when they are on. They don't provide any real light in the dark either. Don't know if there is a better alternative out there to no-flame candles. We bought these because we have a toddler that is in to everything, so open flame is a real no-no. Just wish the light wasn't so orange.

I set these candles on a candelabra in my fireplace. They are stunning, have a better glow then the real candles which were previously in the fireplace. I don't need to worry about candle wax or other problems related to real candles.

Small wax candles look real with flickering flames. But the battery is a button battery which may be expensive to replace. I have since found larger candles at Target that use AA or AAA batteries and have a timer that eliminates the need to turn them on and off.

The nice warm glow depicted in the photograph is not very realistic. The size is quite small and the packaging pretty cheesy. Bought as a gift, but won't be gifting them I'm afraid.

I bought a huge amount of these candles for a Candle-light Advent program back in December. Unlike the cheap tea-light candles, these beauties really look real and when grouped together the flicker effect is mesmerizing and extremely life-like. The audience couldn't even tell the difference between the 3 dozen Gerson candles and 3 or 4 real candles I used.
Hint for grouping more than one set.... group like sizes together so the uniformity doesn't give it away.

My mother was convincing me to buy flameless candles because she loves hers. She bought her set on QVC. I was on their web sight to buy them and found that they were almost $40.00 for a set of 3 (they had timers though) so I searched Amazon and found these. I thought to save money I can do without the timers. When I got them they worked fine and I was happy with them until I saw my mothers. They are bigger and even feel better quality wise. They look more realistic and are amazing. I am in the process of ordering those now. Overall, they are what they advertise, but I have seen better if you are willing to pay a little more for them.

Bought two sets, 3 dont work well (have to push the button 2 or 3 times to get them to stay on), 1 doesnt work at all. Also these are very very tiny.
