We all have our definitions of happiness. For some of us, it is treating our olfactory senses with our favorite scented candle. The aroma of which steadily fills up our space. Deriving pleasure from our favourite fragrance is one of the best feelings in the world.

In modern times when the market is flooded with new inventions designed to ease our life and enhance our experiences, the scented candle industry is not far behind. The introduction of wax melt warmers has successfully encountered many problems faced by traditional candle-burning practices.

What exactly wax melts warmers are and how do they work?

Wax melt warmers are electric devices used to melt scented wax and gently release its aroma into the air.

While most wax warmers are designed to use both candles as well as wax melts. There are many which are more suitable for wax melts. Wax melts are chunks of wax without the wick that is present in candles.

Most wax warmers usually consist of two components:

a) A heating source

The heating source could be either a light bulb or a hot plate which when heated melts the wax.

ADVANTAGES of the wax melt warmer

1. Prolongs the shelf life of the candle wax

Since the wax melt warmers melt the wax at a lower temperature the melting process is up to 5 times slower than burning them with a fire which melts the wax at a greater speed.

So with just a one-time investment in a good quality wax melt warmer, you can save 5 times the money on scented candle wax for many years. This makes it economically sound.

2. Enhances the aroma of the scented wax

Wax warmers are designed to melt wax at a perfect temperature that is specifically meant to release the aroma optimally. Whereas the fire burns the candle at a high temperature which compromises the aromatic quality of the candle.

In the olden days, candles were meant to provide light and warmth and not meant to diffuse the aroma in space. If your aim is to bask in the aroma of the candles, wax melts warmer is a sensible option.

3. Cuts down the risk of fire hazards

Since there is no open flame involved, it is safe to use around kids and pets.

4. Maintains the aesthetics of the house

Burning the candles releases soot which could blacken the walls and if you live in a rented house the damage to the property could burn a hole in your pocket. Many wax melt warmers are stylishly designed which rather adds to the aesthetic appeal of your house.

5. Convenient to clean

Wax melt warmers are easy to clean, when all the wax in the bowl is melted you can remove the molten wax and wipe the bowl with a soft cloth. You can also reuse the molten wax, just pour them into molds and add your favorite essential oils or any other fragrance, set it to be used for next time.

6. Provides an opportunity to mix fragrances

You can melt two different scented wax melts at the same time and fill your room with an entirely new fragrance of your own.

CAUTION– Traditional candles are made up of paraffin wax that releases harmful chemicals in the air some of which are carcinogenic (that which causes cancer) and could be detrimental to your family’s and pets’ health.

Check the label carefully and Instead opt for soy wax melts, they are eco-friendly and safe to use.

What to look for in a good QUALITY wax melt warmer that meets your needs

1. The material of the body

Wax melts warmers come in a variety of materials like plastic, ceramic, metal, or glass. I would suggest that if your budget allows opting for ceramic ones because ceramics have a high melting point, which means the body of the wax melts warmer and does not become hot even if it is hot from the inside.

2. Heating source 

You can either opt for the light bulb or hot plate variety depending upon your preference for whether you use scented candles or wax melts. If you love using candles then go for a hot plate variety because it is designed to fit in large candles.

If you use wax melts you should use the wax warmer with a bulb. Along with releasing the fragrance they also give a soft glow. They come in a wide variety of designs to choose from. The only drawback here is that in most warmers once the bulb is out it needs to be changed.

Types of wax melt warmer

There are two types of wax melt warmers:

1. Pluggable ones-

They are smaller in size and have a heating bowl attached to the top and as the name suggests they are directly attached to the switchboard.

One of the drawbacks of this is that because of its small size it takes a longer time to release the fragrance. Also if too many wax melts are added, then it could overflow. It is good if you want to spread fragrance to a smaller room.

2. Corded ones-

They are more common and consist of a long cord. It could fit in relatively larger wax melts or large candles.
