Wickman Stainless Steel Black Wick Trimmer Wtb-bl, gift box

If you reading reviews and concerned about if this works or not, let me put you at ease because I was in the same place as you. This was a Christmas gift for my Girlfriend, but seems like more of a gift for both of us. Now I don't have to hear my girlfriend nag me because I did not cut the wick short enough. To those on here who have and will write negative reviews about this wick trimmer, I am confused. I'm not saying it's the best wick trimmer of all time, I mean it's not made of gold and covered with diamonds, but This Wick Trimmer gets the job done it WORKS GREAT! I cannot think of one thing that is bad about it. You take out the wick trimmer you go up to the candel and with one snip the wick is cut perfect every time. Better yet the wick lays cleanly on your trimmers round shaped area and you don't have to worry about a loose piece in your jar. No more fighting with scissors cutting at an awkward angel and making loose pieces in the candle jar. And yes it is sharp enough to cut through the wick like butter. That was my major concern. I gave it four stars becuase it just seems right. After all it's just wick trimmers it's not a bleepin Car! If in the next years I find anything wrong with them at all(for example they don't cut as good) I will come back on this post and let you know.

If you burn a lot of candles, you know you should always trim the wick before each lighting, to prevent the flame from burning too high and causing that nasty soot buildup inside candle jars and your home. The bottom of wick trimmers are bent at a 90 degree angle, easily trimming wicks in one snip where ordinary scissors would take several angled snips.This particular trimmer is sturdy, the blades are sharp, and I've had no trouble trimming a variety of wicks from different brands of candles. This trimmer is well worth the money. The stainless steel goes with any decor, and does not require any special care. The trimmer is long enough to reach all the way to the bottom of a large jar candle with ease. The package arrived quickly, and was in good condition. I would recommend this trimmer for any candle enthusiast.

I searched for a good wick trimmer at a reasonable price. Unfortunately, all were pretty much the same, so it made my job harder by trying to decide which was actually the best. I went through a few styles and materials before finally settling on this one. The construction is top notch, the legs of the trimmer are thicker than say the Yankee candle version, and the stainless steel allows it to be sharper than ones of other materials. While it still sometimes has trouble with a wick coated in wax, it does the best job out of any trimmers out there. The solid construction and nice look make this the one to buy, and since they all cost around the same price, you can't really beat it.

The wick cutter worked well but I noticed after a few months that it became difficult to cut new wicks. I make a lot of candles so I need the blades to be sharp enough to cut new wicks down, not just old ones. I would probably recommend this although I have not tried any other brands.

I really wanted to love this trimmer. One big issue that prevented me from giving it a 5 stars. It is black and so is the wick. I have a hard time seeing where the wick is and if I am cutting off too much (which I have done). Otherwise the design is great.
