Matney Bamboo Torches for Outside Mosquitos Repellent - 5 Ft. Tall - (12 Pack) - Decorative Garden & Backyard Lights - Mosquito Torches Outdoor - Oil Lamp for Citronella - Flame Lasts Over 8 Hours

Good deal! Came with fuel canisters and bamboo torches. Only one wick seemed shorter than the others and had to be re-lit several times. However, this was a very good deal for the number of torches received. They were the perfect height for the backyard. Also the torches were not super thin, so they held up well to securing them into the hard ground. The fuel was purchased separately. They burned bright when lit.

They arrived quickly the basket that holds the canister on 4 of the 12 was a little unraveled but overall it was sturdy. We predrilled the hole so not to put stress on the bamboo. They look great. We used them in groups of three around a large pool and patio area.

The bamboo holders were fine, although at least one cap fell apart. The canisters were not well made so hard to screw on and off to fill. But the wicks were awful. They simply did not wick!! As a result the fuel would not come out the top and so it would not light.

Worked well.

We used them for Halloween. They were super fun. 1-100oz bottle of fuel will be enough for all of them to burn for 4hrs. I bought 2 and had a whole extra bottle. Have a small scrwedriver ready to pry out the wick and lids from the wood stopper cap. They were mostly stuck. Gloves for after to empty the excess fuel for storage. The wicks are sooty and soaked with fuel. The longer the wick (like 2") the higher the flame. 1" is just a glow flame. Consider fireing a couple up to determine the desired safe flame if its important. The stoppers worked just fine to put the flames out. I think the wicks should be pretty soaked befor lighting for them to not just burn away. They pose a fire hazard so be very careful! I reccommend a fire extenguisher if a hose isn't nearby.

The torch wick caps were broken in the packaging on 4 of the torches. How the torches are made, the wick caps are necessary to keep water from entering the oil canister. Since the oil canister is glued to the torches it is not an easy replacement once water gets inside. I am hoping the company will at least send me 4 replacement caps. Then I would change my rating to 4 stars.

I’ve only had the chance to use them once and for the one time use they were great. I will be sure to update my review when I use them again to review how well they are for multiple use, but they worked great for our outside party last weekend and came undamaged.

Love everything about them...price, quality, durability, etc., except, the torch lights don’t still lit. They went out within 10 mins and I had to keep relighting them, which was an inconvenience
