I bought the qty of 12 to test these out before making a big purchase. My first test the wick did not work well at all. Well, science is in the name of the company for a reason, I had to take notes and keep on testing to find out if this wick would work well for me. I tested this again in a different sized vessel, same wax, same fragrance load and it worked as expected. No high flames, no tunneling, soot free, great hot throw. Don't give up on the first test.

We purchased these for our 2 1/2 inch diameter 5oz tin using 6006. They work beautifully! Very frustrating to see reviews from people that expect candle science to solve all their wicks and wax problems. That’s our job as a chandler. Buy multiple wicks and test in your own environment until you get the right choice. The app as stated is just a starting point! If your tin diameter is 2 1/2 inches and you’re using 6006 wax, this wick will work perfect!

These were the recommended wicks for 6006 in my apothecary jars and they turned out beautifully. Minimum soot, excellent HT & CT. I recommend!

I don't usually leave reviews but i decided to because of the amount of bad reviews. Candle science is the one of the few places i receive my wicks nicely packaged and not crushed all together. Unfortuanly most of reveiws are from a user error or one being annoyed because they dont know what they're doing and expected candle science to be accurate when TESTING is huge in candle making. These are suggested starting points for your jar NOT your recipe. With that being said do your homework before leaving reviews.

I have used these ones for my IGI6006 soy/paraffin blend wax in 2.5 in diameter containers. No soot smoke to them and burns very well without wasting wax around the sides that doesn't melt(very small 1/8 in).

Eco wick 2 was recommended for the 16oz apothecary jar however one of the wicks keep going out therefore my candle is burning uneven.

I am not sure what's going on with the latest wicks I received they are ALL going out for recipe has not changed.

I have had the hardest time finding the wick the best for my candles . I started off using ECO 14 with apothecary 16 oz jars and the flame was too high and left jar black and sick would curl under wax. I then used the recommended wicks fir the size jars i use.. I also doubled wicked it and now it barely burns the wax... I am a loyal customer and this is becoming frustrating

In my personal experience, Candle science is the best only thing I have to say something about is the shipping cost is killing me.
but regarding wicking a jar we have to do a lot of research and testing when it comes to wicking a container the recommendation is just that it does not mean results are 100% guarantee, is just an approximation we all have to do our own testing and make lots of notes on the results - now if is tunneling only means that wick is too small so you go up one more number or if is mushrooming it means is over wick you have to size down that's all. Another thing never goes for the whole batch until you are sure the wick is right for your container is just my personal experience, it saves a lot of money, and energy. Hope this helps. Thank you candle Science for offering only the best.

I tried these wicks out as they’re one of the recommended wicks for the 16oz apothecary jars. I used two wicks like recommended and after about 5 1/2 hours of burn time the whole top wasn’t fully melted. The wicks are probably great for other candle sizes as they did self trim and let little to not smoke when blown out, however be warned with the 16 oz apothecary jars!
