ScentsationalsWax Melt Warmer, Wax Warmer for Scented Wax Melts - Edison Collection Chelsea - Candle Wax Melter for Fragrance Cubes and Tarts

At first I thought my purchases of this Scentsationals "Chelsea" Lantern and another similar Scentsationals "Anchorage" one were total mistakes because they were not only ridiculously way too bright and glary, but the wax got entirely way too hot. I even hated it while using it just as a lamp because of the impossible brightness. Worse, although the wax got very hot, it had no fragrance throw at all whether using using the top or not.I refused to send either style back because I loved the lanterns themselves. Being that I have always used dimmers on various lamps and often for a softer, more ambient effect, I got the wonderful idea of getting two dimmers for these two different lanterns. I immediately ordered two of them from Amazon (Litton TT300H-BR ... they come in both brown and white).When I received them, I plugged both lanterns into them and immediately realized just how wonderful both styles of these Scentsationals lanterns could really be. Not only was I able to resolve the impossible brightness issue, but I was able to control just how hot the heated wax would become... I am ecstatic!!!I sometimes use the lanterns as I just described as well as sometimes just nice, ambient lamps (w/o wax) which look better when doing so if I remove the wax plate from the lantern entirely which allows the light to shine through the small perimeter holes in the lid... simply beautiful!Sure, the dimmers were about $15 each, but money is immediately saved for this reason... Most people aren't aware that using a dimmer on any lamp will allow their bulbs to seemingly last forever, making the need to replace these more expensive $4 dollar Edison bulbs almost never although they can be bought both here and at Walmart.Also, I have concluded that the scent of the fragrance waxes lasts much longer if they are not allowed to get so very, very hot from such a bright "full-throttle" 40 watt bulb. Also I must say that even the Edison bulb itself looks much better and more "antique" when it is dimmed somewhat to the desired brightness. When the horrific glare is gone, you can actually see the awesome filaments of the beautiful bulb!There are many similar dimmers that can be bought elsewhere, but I am very pleased with the ones I mentioned above from Amazon.I hope all of the people that were disenchanted with their purchase of any of these Scentsational lanterns get the chance to use a dimmer with theirs before they chunk them!!! It would be really sad to not be able to enjoy these really nice lantern/ lamps in both ways while using the recommended dimmers.I must add that these wax plates will hold only two or three wax cubes at a time, but I have used all kinds of expensive wax warmers (Scentsy, etc.), so I recommend changing the waxes out with new ones by the time you need a third or fourth cube anyway to prevent diluting the new wax in with the old, used-up wax... easy, just place the warmer plate in your freezer, wait about 15 minutes and the hardened wax will pop right out! I am conservative when using fragrance waxes in all of my warmers. I always start out with only one cube and add either halves or whole cubes as they become needed, until I feel it's time for a fourth entire cube, thus avoiding the abovementioned dilution. By doing this, my warmers are always emmiting the highest level of the fragrance. Again, never allow the waxes to get outrageously hot, thus my suggestion of dimmers on any and all wax warmers that use any kind or shape of an incandescent bulb, even the kind that twist in with two prongs... the kind that the brand "Candle Warmers Etc." uses, also sold here on Amazon... love them too, especially the "Candle Warmers Etc. Bleur Fleur dis Lis" and the "Candle Warmers Etc. Chevron" (replacement bulbs only obtainable on Amazon... Np5 one-pack or the 3-pack).I have recently come to like the simple ones with just the plate warmer and the dish (Candle Warmers Etc. and other brands), but they are not illuminated at all, however, they don't "burn" and ruin the waxes... therefore nothing ambient or beautiful about those, yet cost efficient!I hope this information makes for a much better experience when using your wax warmers in the future, no matter their style or brand. Enjoy!!!

Absolutely beautiful beachy look wax warmer. Gives off a nice glow with the Edison bulb, well-constructed, and easily melts wax cubes. The wax pan is removable and cleverly hidden under the decorative top dome. I love it!

I love it! It matches a larger candle lantern I currently own and both look wonderfully together. I’ll be buying a second lantern and looking for additional scents with the intent of setting theme related scents for different seasons and occasions of the year.I love the lantern as a means for the creating and setting of moods with the lantern and scented oils or waxballs. I’m looking forward to experiencing different fragrances to draw visitors in different directions.

All you really see is a super glaring bulb because the entire thing is glass on the sides. I think it actually makes the melts too hot so the scent doesn't last as long.

I love the light this gives off and the fact that it's a wax warmer. It was very poorly packaged. The light bulb was plugged into the unit without any bubble wrap or anything so when I received it the bulb was broken in many pieces. Luckily the bulbs are very cheap I think they were about 3 dollars for two bulbs at Walmart. Other than that it works and smells great and also serves as a much needed light source. It does give off quite a bit of light though so keep that in mind.

Not warm enough to melt my wax cubes so there’s barely any scent. It is so bright,had to put something in front to block the glare.

This lantern is really cute! BUT... the replacement bulbs are about $7 each on Amazon!!!! Thats ridiculous!!!!!! And the well at the top is very shallow and will only hold two melts at the most! I wont be using it much :(
