I've had the same Candle Lantern for 20 years, and I wouldn't buy another model. The construction of the lantern is light yet durable. I've had to replace the glass globe only once, but I'm sure other people will have to more frequently, depending on the terrain you hike or the conditions you expose the lantern to. This lantern is easy to clean and maintain, it is all so easy to light, and depending on the location and elevation, it will burn for eight hours on one candle. I've recommended this candle to all my friends over the years, and now they all have a candle lantern. You can be sure that only Candle Lantern will be in my backpack.

Candle lanterns are awesome. Simple and inexpensive and if you don't think they put out enough light, consider this. Your eyes will acclimate somewhat to the available light. A candle lantern under a tarp provides plenty to cook a meal. In a tent you can read by one. And those over powered gas and propane lanterns are uncomfortable because they're so bright when you look away and back your eyes have to constantly adjust between two extremes. So stop ruining my buzz with those wasteful appliances and get a candle lantern!

This candle lantern is really wonderful! Light weight, inexpensive, decent burn time, no mess-it's a really wonderful alternative to harsh headlamp lights and really gets the mood going when you break out your ouija board at camp! Honestly, candle lanterns are a nice change form battery operated lights when you living outside for a while

I had major problems keeping the thing together. If I moved the glass at all (you need to slide it down to light the candle for instance), the bottom would come loose and fall off completely. Also, the 3 little arms on top don't lock into the base, they just hang on the lip, which isn't much and the slightest touch & it would fall apart. Minor design adjustments that could be resolved easily, but left as is could cause major problems such as a fire. The candle does burn nice and bright and last quite awhile so that's good. However, I didn't trust the thing to hang or leave unattended.

The Candle Lantern is the bomb. I’ve had it a long time and have used it often for camping and backpacking. It’s a simple must. Whoever doesn’t have one needs to get one. I recently dropped mine and broke the globe. Can you tell me where I can get a replacement? Good work.
