How well do those Glade Wisp Flameless Candles work?

Flameless Candles | 2 comments

Our dorm room (15 x 15 feet) always smells kinda stagnant because there’s really poor air circulation, so we keep trying out different air fresheners and stuff, but nothing works all that well or lasts all that long.

I keep seeing commercials for the flameless candles and I was wondering how long the oil lasts and if they really even work that well? I don’t want to spend like, on it to find out it only lasts 6 hours or something. (But I did find a off coupon)

How about those Glade Wisp Air Fresheners that puff out spray every 9, 18, or 24 minutes or whatever? How well do they work and how long do they last?

Any other suggestions? THANKS!

NOTE: We’re not allowed to have real candles, potpourri pots or candle warmers in the dorm. So we need a "heat/flameless" option. And all our plug sockets are in inconvenient spots, so we can’t get a plug-in air freshener either.

Wasn’t sure what category to put this in, sorry if it’s not totally accurate…
Has anyone tried them yet? How about other things? What works best?

I bought the Glade flameless candle to use in my classroom (we can’t have candles there, either) and tried it in my house first. It’s really strong! It’s adjustable, too, so you can set it really strong or not so strong. The scent filled my entire basement, so I moved it upstairs to the living room….no time at all for the smell to be everywhere. It puffs every so often, too, and stays on for about 3 hours before it turns itself off. Looks like it will be perfectly safe to use because it stays cool. It’s supposed to last about 45 days. If you have no air moving, you might want to set a fan on low, just to stir the air. I think it should work in your dorm room just fine. Use the coupon, and watch for refills with the $2 instant coupon on them. (I just got a bunch of those refills at K-mart. Made the refills really cheap.)

I have a Wisp Flameless Candle and I’m scouring ebay for more of them. They work great. In fact, I’m taking one to my office because we have a no candle.

I would also suggest a reed diffuser from Pier One. Those last forever.
