Minuteman X304130 Black 8 Candle Fireplace Candelabra

No matter what I have tried, the holders for the candles just don't seem to sit level. I have had several friends ask if I was a little drunk when I assembled it, even though I don't drink. It looks really nice otherwise, but the crooked holders are a real problem.

I am not one to leave negative reviews, but I felt like I should share my experience with this product. I found it to be rather flimsy and poorly built. The front legs of the candelabra are not stable at all, and there is no method of tightening them more securely. Many of the holders for the candles are crooked despite numerous attempts to level them. As a result, the candles do not stand properly and burn unevenly. I would return the product, but it is hard for me to get around to make the trip to the post office. I had hoped to get a good product at an inexpensive price, but I guess you get what you pay for. I now recommend spending a little more money to get a better quality product than this one is.

This item took a while to arrive and then was broken when I received it. I needed it for an event that night, so I put it together with some tape. I didn't want to bother with returning it so have continued to use it. I had a hard time getting the candleholders to sit evenly, but it still looks nice when the candles are burning.

This candelabra is very stable and attractive, and the piece can be adjusted to fit various widths. It is an easy fire alternative for the fireplace.

This product was not built terribly well. The candleholders are not all completely flat. As a result, the candles did not sit level, and the wax drips all over the floor of the fireplace.

The price and appearance of this candelabra are great. Assembly was a little tricky, even though it came mostly put together. It has a hinge to help it fit into small spaces, but this feature makes it a little unsteady during assembly. It also hard to get the candleholders to sit level. Once assembled though, it is very attractive.

This candelabra is a perfect fit for my empty fireplace. I chose to fill the holders with battery operated candles rather than the wax variety. Of course, doing this required the removal of the candle spikes, but my husband took care of that. They are preset to turn on and off each evening and look really nice. I have gotten lots of compliments on how they look. I do want to stress the importance of carefully measuring the dimensions of the fireplace. If I had not done this, I would have purchased the wrong candelabra since my fireplace is quite shallow.

The improper construction of my fireplace prevents me from using it, but I really like the look of dancing flames. This candelabra gave me a way to have real fire in my fireplace. It really looks nice and produces a beautiful flickering light.

This product is not quite as durable as I expected. It folds for storage or shipping. It does look nice though and does what I need it to do.

I haven't actually used this candelabra yet, but it really looks nice. Candles purchased at a local store fit it perfectly. I like that I can adjust it to fit securely inside my fireplace. My husband assembled it, but he said it was an easy process. I am really looking forward to using it.
