Wax Melter for Candle Making, Holds Approximately 7 Qts Or 14 Lbs of Melted Wax, Wax Melter Has Easy Pour Valve, by Soylite Candles

This is the first wax melter I e bought and I love it so far. It melts the wax pretty fast and can fit quite a bit of wax in it. It’s easy to use as a beginner in my opinion and can’t wait to use it again.

Although the temperature dial is inaccurate, it didn't matter to me since I always use a thermometer anyway. Once I got the temperature dialed in, I just unplug it each time I use it. I didn't take any stars away for that because each time I've used it, I plug it back in and it always and reliably heats to that temp every time without variation.This heats up pretty fast, spout has never plugged up. Because of the design, the spout exit (inside) is above the bottom and it leaves maybe a half inch of wax in the bottom. This is actually a good thing because you wouldn't want fried wax on the bottom if you don't shut it off right away.The outside gets quite warm and usually leaves a drip or two after stopping the flow, but I would think all do the same. I leave a mason jar lid under the spout and every so often, I scrap the solidified wax off the lid and drop it back in the melter.I use this to make candles for resale and if I buy another melter (quite likely adding a second), this is what I'll buy.

I love this wax melter! But be careful to melt slowly to 200 degrees it gets hot fast

really like it a lot for new candle maker. great for beginning - agree with all the other reviews I've seen. Do yourself a favor and just get this!

This has made my small candle business SO MUCH MORE PRODUCTIVE. I love this product. On the lowest heat settings, it melts a decent amount of wax in a matter of minutes. My double-boiler process would take 3x as long to melt a fraction of the wax this can, and with this you don't have to worry about boiling water splashes!The handle is easy to use and feels secure. The rubber cover on it makes it so that it's not too hot to touch, but I still use a rag sometimes just in case. Others complained about the level of the funnel and how you still need to have a significant amount of wax to be able to pour without tipping it, but I can't speak to that as I usually have this pretty full when I'm using it.

The first one I received was broken. The plug was cracked and the legs were also cracked. The box was destroyed so I don't know if it happened in shipping, or before because it was clearly taped back together. Either way when I reached out they immediately sent a new one. It works well, the temperature knob is pretty basic and not super useful, but it heats up very quick and does what it's supposed too.

I bought a candle kit where I felt that the melting pot that came with it was really mediocre. It worked, but it has a small capacity, and wax took forever to melt.This baby, though. Holds 7 quarts of wax (I haven't actually tested capacity yet). I melted about 3 pounds of wax it melted fast! Seriously, I went to go make a cup of coffee and came back to a nice puddle. This will work perfect for me.The only problem for me is that you can't use the spigot to get all of the wax out. The directions do say to not remove more than 90% of the wax, so this is just a personal preference, not anything wrong with the pot. You can use this as a double boiler, or you can just pick it up to tilt out the rest of the wax, which is what I did.Overall, this is a keeper. I love it. If I ever need another wax melter, I would definitely buy this again.

This is perfect. Heats up fast and doesn’t take up much space. Perfect for my small candle making gig
