Price range: See on Amazon

What we liked

  • + Same 16 lb capacity as the melter it replaces, listed as enough for up to 30 8 oz candles per batch.
  • + Heated brass spout is meant to prevent wax frosting at the pour, and the unit stops heating in insulation mode.
  • + The listing says 8 lb of soy wax melts in about 25 minutes at 212 degrees F.

Trade-offs

  • - At about 100 dollars it is a larger outlay than small melters, aimed at bigger batches.
  • - The listing mentions a kit with extras but is vague on the full contents, so check the package list before ordering.
