These jars are wonderful, I am using them to begin my new candle business. Very durable, sturdy, classy, and amazing to look at.

Anyone having issues with fingerprint smudging on the jars:

Polish them with a quality microfiber cloth and a touch of dawn dish soap. They look completely new now!

I am having a similar issue with wicking that others have had, and I am hoping that someone from candlescience will reach out to me. I am running into this very strange issue where the wick somehow seems too large and to small at the same time. The flame seems to burn to high and I notice some carbon buildup on it as well as the flame jumping some and releasing a small amount of black smoke; however, at the same time the melt pool is experiencing some minor tunneling. I also am not getting a lot of hot throw though I will try to fix this issue somewhat by adding more fragrance.

The container itself is beautiful. The matte black is very appealing as well as the weight of it really feels substantial and expensive. I love the look of the container so much I am willing to work through some wicking issue and lack of hot throw.

Nice, thick, and easy to wick

I absolutely adore the look of this jar and so do my customers! I use 100% beeswax and it’s been working fantastically. I use square labels on them and I don’t have any issues! I haven’t gotten stains on the black tumblers, but the with the lighter ones, I use alcohol based cleansers if something gets transferred.

I love how sleep and elegant these vessels look. The weight and smooth feel is very appealing to customers and looks great and on a coffee table. However, the jars stains very easily. Wearing gloves does not help.
Also, the labels are a nightmare! I could not get any square label on the jars without bubbles or creases.

They look so great but working with them is a whole nightmare, fingerprints that won't go away, every label that I've tried didn't stick to them.

We have read all of the struggles others are having with labels not sticking. Has anyone actually resolved the issue of rippling or bubbling of labels used on the Nordic Tumbler? We have purchased labels within the suggested size (due to the tapering at the bottom of the vessel). Rippling even occurs at the very top of the label!
We continue to try to alter our method of application and really, really want to make this tumbler work for us.

I thought I was the only one having labeling issues. I think with these jars we need to find a very specific label size, one that doesn't get close to the rounded base, maybe like one of those thinner, long ones that Avery has. Overall though, I love them!

I've never complained about a Candlescience product before. Everything is usually super high quality. I absolutely love the look of these jars and they have a great feeling in your hands but they're rife with inconsistencies. It takes a lot of maneuvering to get my labels to apply flat and, most of the time, I'm left with bubbles along the edges. The straight sides are often not straight at all. It's very frustrating because, as I mentioned, they're gorgeous to look at but a pain to put labels on. If your labels are more narrow, you may have better luck.

I'm using the recommended CD18 wick with 8% FO and IGI444. The flame is too high with the CD18. It wanted to tunnel at the top, but is burning fine now. Getting a full melt pool. The problem is that I'm getting zero hot throw. Yet, I'm afraid if I wick down that I still won't get a hot throw. The vessels themselves are nice and they fit the theme of my candle, which is why I chose them. I do need to get some gloves to prevent fingerprints as these will be packaged.
