Watch for Hairline Cracks

The jar is the perfect size for my line, but I have to plan on throwing out 1/3 of the jars I receive. They either come with hairline cracks, or develop them over time, just like the 12oz Canning Jars. Curbside pickup helps if you take the time to check them all during pickup. I really hope they find a different manufacturer for this size jar.

Great Jars but...

...they should be inspected before being shipped to customers. I know it's probably not feasible to inspect every single jar though.
I ordered 2 cases to start testing a new line and 5 out of 24 Jars have hairline cracks.
I inspect every jar, every time, before cleaning them to make sure they are not cracked or chipped.
I would file a return or reimbursement but I can't get a decent picture of the cracks. :( I won't be able to use them. Don't need a jar blowing up on me.
Other than that these jars are great. Perfect size for me.

Love these jars. I just ordered 1 case and I just fall in love with them. I want to order more before it gets out of stock again. Good quality glass and all of them came in very good condition. No scratch no nothing. Thanks to the reviews wicking wasn't a struggle. I put 2 wicks of CD 6 as one of the comments stated and it worked awesome. Very helpful to candle makers. I know for sure that my customers will love them.
One suggestion to the Candle Science team, why don't you make like a filtering option on the containers side, like the one you've made with the F.O. So, if we are looking for a specific size, we can filter it by size or by wax that can be filled into the container.

Love these jars but one came broken

I have't used these jars in a while. When I did, one was delivered broken in the box. I do love the jars itself, but the wick recommendations are not the best options.

Salsa Jars

I started using these a few months ago and fell in love with them. The 13oz salsa jars are very sturdy and my customers love them. I will continue to purchase these to use in my candle line.

Amazing Jars but volume issues

I aboslutley love these salsa jars! They're perfect for my "one size fits all" candle brand. The only issue I have with them is that, it says the jars can hold 13oz of wax, however when I try to pour that amount into the jar I always seem to have a few ounces left over?

Love these jars!

I absolutely love these jars, received them in great condition - none broken at all. They look great and are really a blank canvas for whatever kind of candle you want to create within your branding. Wicking has been the only struggle, but even so I found the recommendations on the wick guide to be close. I use 464, about 10% FO, and no dye. I have had the most success with CD18 and CD20, I get full melt pools within 2-3 hours and the melt pools don't get ridiculously deep. Plus, the container does not get too hot to the touch the further down it burns, but the wick still creates a really solid HT. Only issue I have with the with CD wicks is the mushrooming, but that can be solved with wick trimming before lighting. I also tried out ECO14 and while I love the way the ECO14 burns (same even melt pool over 2-3 hours and no mushrooming at all), I find the CD wicks give a noticeably better scent throw. I may bump up to ECO16 just to test that out as well though. Hope this helps someone out there!
