Quality has declined greatly

These are not what they used to be. Build quality is poor and flimsy. Really disappointed.

Awesome Product

This is great when winter camping!

Wonderful Product

I love this thing. It's my second, I'm getting them as gifts for my loved ones' birthdays. I dropped my first one and the glass shattered, but I still prefer breakable glass to any plastic thing! And UCO has replacement glass for sale too. A really great product.

Not what they used to be.

I've had one of these for 20 years or more and have loved owning it. I bought a new one to have as a spare, and the quality has really slipped. The new one rattles as the candle sleeve doesn't fit tight. The plastic base is sloppy, and it has "Made in China" emblazoned on the bottom. I wish id have never bought a new one. I'd have paid twice the price for one built better.
