Matney Bamboo Torches for Outside, 5 Ft (12 Pack)

They arrived quickly the basket that holds the canister on 4 of the 12 was a little unraveled but overall it was sturdy. We predrilled the hole so not to put stress on the bamboo. They look great. We used them in groups of three around a large pool and patio area.

Good deal! Came with fuel canisters and bamboo torches. Only one wick seemed shorter than the others and had to be re-lit several times. However, this was a very good deal for the number of torches received. They were the perfect height for the backyard. Also the torches were not super thin, so they held up well to securing them into the hard ground. The fuel was purchased separately. They burned bright when lit.

The bamboo holders were fine, although at least one cap fell apart. The canisters were not well made so hard to screw on and off to fill. But the wicks were awful. They simply did not wick!! As a result the fuel would not come out the top and so it would not light.

Bought this for my wedding. Easy to use, very affordable. I used them in the sand and no issues sticking it in the sand. They look great however if you touch/grab them you can tell why the price. I used them only once. If you’re looking for something long lasting I would maybe look for better quality. (Higher price) if this is for a one event thing definitely worth it.

One of the wicker torch has black all over the wicker. I tried to clean it off but no luck. The other 7 were on. No directions about the wick but they need to be shipped to 3/4" I'm adding to this that I had to use a took to get the tops off. One cap was jammed into the wood cap and some of the wicker is breaking from being squashed in the packaging. These aren't really very good.

We used them for Halloween. They were super fun. 1-100oz bottle of fuel will be enough for all of them to burn for 4hrs. I bought 2 and had a whole extra bottle. Have a small scrwedriver ready to pry out the wick and lids from the wood stopper cap. They were mostly stuck. Gloves for after to empty the excess fuel for storage. The wicks are sooty and soaked with fuel. The longer the wick (like 2") the higher the flame. 1" is just a glow flame. Consider fireing a couple up to determine the desired safe flame if its important. The stoppers worked just fine to put the flames out. I think the wicks should be pretty soaked befor lighting for them to not just burn away. They pose a fire hazard so be very careful! I reccommend a fire extenguisher if a hose isn't nearby.

They look ok, but they don’t work. The wicks are made of material that doesn’t draw the fuel up to be burned. The canisters are poorly made in that the tops with the hole that holds the wick are too small so they don’t fit on the threads of the canister. Couple that with the fact that they are more expensive than at a store, all things considered, this was a poor purchase.

I bought these about a year ago. They have been exposed to sunlight and even a winter season and are still very much in tact. Added a very nice ambience to my pool area while entertaining. Use the mosquito repelling lamp oil in them and get the added benefit of less pests flying about while your relaxing. Good product and I recommend these.
