This product is simply superb. The candles are attractive and look authentic (save when viewed from above!). They're safe and clean (they don't smell when you 'blow' them out). They instantly create a lovely mood. I think they are a great addition to any home. I particularly like the fact that you can sit outside with them and they never go out. They are my favourite purchase of 2008. Don't think twice - you'll never regret buying them.

I bought this because am so in love with my sun jar and I thought having both would be awesome - poetic, even!
However, the moon jar isn't a patch on its cousin. The frosted glass appears almost grubby; as if it's discoloured. It's slightly grey, and less attractive than the sun jar when it's sitting on your window-sill.
The light itself is almost an electric blue, and it is dreadfully cold. It's the colour of icicles and shivering and wanting to go home. Where the sun jar is comforting and cosy, the moon jar is slightly antsy-making, so am not quite sure what its purpose is. It could be used in clubs, or to create "statement lighting", but it has none of the friendliness or charm or warmth of its predecessor.

I concur with the other two one star reviews. The product images of this "glow brick" are a gross misrepresentation of the product in reality.
I was hugely disappointed as I was expecting it to actually produce visible light, I was mistaken. It is extremely dull and imperceptible with any ambient light in the room.
I was somewhat offput by the cost at first but Amazon cut the price and I decided to buy one and have not since regretted it.
Firstly, don't think of this as a light source, it is not, it's designed for mood lighting in an otherwise darkened room. The best way to use it, at least for me, it is to locate it in a corner in a room with white or plain walls angled upwards. You can then just keep on for a pleasant moody atmospheric lighting changing it as the fancy takes you or just allowing it to cycle through its' auto setting.
If you have the money for it you can buy up half a dozen of them and they will work together to create ( I imagine) a stunning effect.
I don't understand people saying that this is as good as burning wood. I've put alot of effort into making these paper bricks, only to struggle to get them lit at all. And as for flames ? I haven't seen a flame yet ! All I get is a smouldering lump, which eventually turns black, smoulders for a while and turns into a lump of ash. No sign of a roaring fire. I tried emailing the company to ask what I might be doing wrong but they never responded. Very disappointing.
If anyone can suggest any hints I'd appreciate it.

This product looks good - simple and streamlined, and does the job. However, as another reviewer has already mentioned, the glow it gives off is bright green - not even a hint of blue! When I first plugged it in it reminded me more of a spooky green haunted house type of light!
Aside from the colour, the glow it gives off is not too bright and after a night of it being plugged in it does not get hot to the touch which is great. I would recommend this item as long as you are happy with the light being green rather than blue.

Same as everyone else, the seals leak in water which causes the connections to rust, the soldered connections come apart very easily so it is possible to bteak the lights just by inserting the batteries and finally the on/off switch has jammed. I bought 3 sets of these for my partner and they are all now in the bin - save your money and buy a candle!

when i first had a go of this i thought oh no! another bad buy like the pucchi pucchi stashed in the back of a draw somewhere. but no! after a few goes i started to get the hang of it, that was it then i was hooked. make sure you get the one with the counter so you can see how fast you can spin it then you will try your best to better your last score. anyway be careful because you will suffer the next day. ive tryed various exercise equipment over the years and never felt forearm 'burn' like this before. addictive and great exercise for the arms. just received the metal version look out for a review.
