 Too High June 3, 2010

Don't do it. You can get a bag of 100 at any Linen n Things store for $4.99. This price is a rip-off of the worst kind.
 Quality Tealights, Would Buy Again May 5, 2010
SunnyOne (East Coast)
While not the very best I've ever used (sadly, that store went out of business), these are quality tealights, and I would buy them again although I do wish they burned just a tad hotter, hence 4 instead of 5 stars. You will get a clean, long-lasting, moderately hot burn that that should please most. I burn candle tarts, and the quality of tealights in the stores has gone way downhill over the years. Some I've purchased won't even melt candle wax, let alone burn hot enough to throw a scent. I've returned or thrown away far too many tealights, which makes it worth paying more for something that actually does the job. I can only assume the stores/shops are having their candles made somewhere other than they did before, so I've learned that it does make a difference where the tealights are manufactured.
 The Best Tealights I've Used March 26, 2010
Truth Teller
I loved the long burning Biedermann & Sons pillar, so when I was not satisfied with the cheap Chinese flaky non-wax tealights I looked to see if Biedermanns sold them. I was not disappointed! These are very long burning, very bright candles. I haven't tried them as warmers, but obviously their nice flame would be quite hot. The person who said they quickly burn down to the wax and then almost seem to go out on you - well, it's rather unbelievable. In my experience, they do quickly burn down to the wax, almost seem to want to burn out on you, and then flame up bright - every time! I also don't know why the person thought they were a good deal with the price and quality, because first of all, they didn't know the quality before purchase, and second of all these candles cost a lot more than others. For me, I HOPED they'd be great quality, based on their other candles, and knew the price was high.
Another person graded these candles down because of a price mis-statement for them. I've seen that, too. When I first bought the pillars, I just got one, because I thought the price was $75!! Of course, I was only charged the $10 and wished I'd bought 7.
If this sounds like an ad by a Biedermann troll, it's not; it's just that i am responding to comments that sound like they are trolls for other companies.

I thought I was getting a good deal with the price and quantity. Wrong! When you light the wick, it burns pretty fast down to the wax and then from that point on the flame is small and almost seems to want to go out on you. I use them for aromatherapy and in that venue, they are no good. I'll never buy these again.

I recently saw these very same Biedermann brand tea lights at one of those "unique" gifts shops here locally. They were just about the same price there as they are here. If you are someone that is at all familiar with tea lights, then you will know at first glance that the price being asked for them here is simply outrageous. I picked up and examined the Biedermann's at the gift shop and found them to be exactly the same size and design as any other tea light I have ever seen. Which really isn't saying all that much creatively speaking. It's hard to imagine much of anything that is simpler in manufacturing than tea lights in bulk. They are all nothing but a cheap flexible metal cup a little over and inch in diameter that is filled with paraffin and has a small wick stuck in the middle. They are just about as elementary by design that one can imagine. I have purchased tea lights all over the place, including here on Amazon, and have never ran into any that I would consider truly substandard, regardless of the price. The burning time of 3 hours or so seems to be an industry standard as well under any company. Simply put, these name brand Biedermann's are terribly overpriced and should be avoided. I live with someone that uses tea lights all over the house and we use a lot of them here. Believe me when I tell you that your hard earned dollars are very much being wasted on this brand.
Tea lights are easily available in a lot of discount stores locally for most folks. However if you happen to live in a locale that doesn't stock tea lights regularly, or just happen to be someone that enjoys the comfort and convenience of shopping online, may I suggest the 125 pack of generic tea lights also available here on Amazon that I have purchased in the past and consider every bit as long burning, (even 4 hours in some cases) and quality made as the disgracefully overpriced Biedermann's. They are also just about the cheapest tea lights currently available on Amazon. I have enclosed a link to these tea lights at the end of this review. I suggest that if you are in the market for tea lights in bulk that you take the time to check them out and enjoy a romantic evening, as well as save some hard earned cash...Tealight Candles White Unscented Set of 125
