Scentsy Warmer Tour + Tips on Picking out a Good Performing Scentsy Warmer
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- I’ve had a few people request a warmer tour...so here it is. My family was finally gone so I had to seize the opportunity to film. It was a dreary day outside and a bit dark, but on the positive side of things seeing this tour might help you get an idea of some of the warmers I use in my home, especially with relation to my Tester Tuesday videos. I have other warmers not out at the moment but this is a snapshot of what’s going currently. I talk about some features of each warmer that I may like or dislike.
The latter half of the video is more of an overall discussion about the main types of warmers Scentsy offers and some differences between bulb warmers of various types and element (hot plate) warmers. I discuss some features that may help you pick out a good performing Scentsy warmer, depending on your needs/desires.
Start of warmer tour time stamp @1:16
If you want to skip to the discussion portion of the video here is the time stamp. @20:33
It’s easy to talk about this kind of thing but still forget to mention certain points so if you have any questions for me ....please comment below.
Here is the link to my video on 6 ways to remove wax from warmer dishes... • How to Change Wax From...
Fyi - In general I use 1-2 cubes in each warmer.
In my open area I actually use 4 cubes divided amongst 3 warmers, and I change my open layout wax on average 1-2 days and other areas every 2-3 days, depending on the scent. I usually change out my wax when it’s hard to smell in the room, which sometimes means the wax will still have some scent left in it but it’s failing to get to the level where it’s adequately scenting the room.
I still wish they’d just put the wattage in the warmer description! And scent notes on the wax bars. Come on, Scentsy!
Yes, me too. It’s odd that they added the wattages for bulb warmers but not element warmers. My only thought is that info would help people looking for a replacement bulb for specific warmers, which obviously is not needed for element warmers.
Patricia G •Nose to Toes• ah, good point. But for me it would persuade me to buy a warmer if I saw it was 12 watts and probably stop me from buying one if it was less than that. Thankfully scentsy you tubers post videos and tell me the watts! 😉
Yes and consultants could always contact support on behalf of their customers to find out wattages for element warmers they are considering buying. (If that happened enough maybe they would add in that info!)
I wish they would include the fact that the plugs are polarized and that your receptacle has to also be polarized.
your enthusiasm is delightful
I love talking about Scentsy!
Amazing video! Very informative, I'm saving your video in my mini archives of scentsy information by you 🥰🤩🤩😁😁😁😁
That’s funny!
I'm doing so also.... ✌🏻👍🏻
Loved your warmer tour. You have a beautiful home. Wish we could get the Crystal Leaves warmer in New Zealand. Great information too. Thanks so much, Patricia, for taking the time to put this together.
Maybe at some point they will introduce the Crystal Leaves warmer to you guys. You never know!
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes Here's hoping!
I found this really helpful! I moved into my college dorm this year and they don't allow candles
:(( I had given up until I saw your channel and discovered wax melts. I'm soso happy!! thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful! It would be terrible not to be Able to enjoy some fragrance
Thank you for this video! It was SO helpful to learn the pros/cons of each type of warmer and how they perform!!!
You are so welcome!
Wonderful tour!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was so helpful. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Excellent video!
Love love the etched core warmer, I’ve had it forever and it throws so well... I have the same sleeve on mine as you !!
Really enjoyed seeing your warmers . Thanks so much for sharing !! Have a great weekend
Yes I have another sleeve and I always forget to switch it up. I’m probably the worst for promoting Scentsy as home decor!
I love the video! It was super enjoyable to see what warmers you have! 🤗
Thanks! Will be changing out a couple in the next few days.
Awesome information Patricia. TFS your opinions, I must say I agree with almost all of your choices! ❤
That’s great! What are your faves?
Just came across this video from you! It was exactly what I wanted about the types of warmers and their performances. Thanks so much!!!!
Hope it helps with some decisions
I couldn’t have my garage feeling neglected so I keep a mini warmer in it and have so for almost 10 years. I love the smell when I go to get in my car and when I return.
I like some light in there when I need to go get something at night.
Thanks for the video! Very helpful! I prefer ceramic warmers too, especially for mini warmers, but I love my Fluted Grey!
Fluted Gray is my favourite warmer. I hope others that have it love it as much as we do.
I bought the free to fly and the etched core warmers after seeing this video and I'm really happy. Free to fly is very pretty, really like the big dish🙂and the etched core, so simple but it fit everywhere and what a good performer !
Excellent!! I do love that big dish on the Free to Fly.
Excellent video with great information for people who are new to the Scentsy scene.
I am waiting for my Vino warmer to arrive so I was so pleased to see it featured and that it’s a good performer. It’s very nice looking too. Thank you for your honest opinions and for sharing your knowledge! 😊
Glad you liked it.
Careful Opening the vino warmer ...lots of parts in that box! Enjoy
Hello! Fellow consultant in Florida here just looking for my Scentsy family’s warmer videos...I was a very naughty gal this weekend ordered 4! Enjoy your videos thanks for sharing and have a Scentsational Sunday!
What ones did you order??
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes I got the warmer of the month Cast, In the Clouds, Wings and Midnight Floral. I love the warmers! I also got a base for the Midnight Floral because with my cats I don’t want a warmer at their level, one of them is a curious Maine Coon and I can see it now, wax in her mane
Love your warmer collection. Thank you for all the info about the wattages. Enjoyed your video very much.
Thanks! I’ll be switching out a few once my Olive Bucket arrives.
This was such a great video. I learned a lot and I'm pretty sure I know which warmers I would start with to fill my space. Will say it was funny watching you move to your 15th room from my 1 bd apartment 😩😂
Haha, my house is on my the larger side!
Glad it was helpful
GREAT VIDEO! And you are absolutely right about different warmers.
Thanks...have a great weekend
Thanks this was very informative
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the tour and the great information! I do love my warmers! Hope you are enjoying the autumn!
It’s nice! Glad to hear about Millie doing a bit better. I watched your video while my husband drive this morning but haven’t finished it yet to comment.
Great information, Patricia! Loved seeing all your warmers! Thanks so much for sharing! 😊
I just switched 2 out yesterday. 🤣
This was so informative! Beautiful warmers! Thanks for sharing, I'm learning so much!
I’m always here to help if I can
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes ☺
Great video! Thank you! Great collection and beautiful home!
I had no idea! Thank you so much for sharing ❤
Glad I could help
Thanks Patrica that was very informative and answered tons of questions.
I’m always a message away if you ever have any questions
That was another very helpful video Patricia, thank you. We have different warmers in Western Australia but the information you've given will still apply to ours. I love seeing all the varieties you have in Canada, although I do get a little jealous - often.😉🙄
Yes it’s almost better to learn to scrutinize and analyze the features of available warmers regarding design and materials...those skills will help you to pick out a decent warmer no matter what’s available in your region.
Not you in particular! But you get what I mean hopefully
;)tx for sharing...
Your home looks beautiful😊!
This was a nice comprehensive video. Thanks 😊. I’ve looked at Scentsy element warmers in the past and did not buy because I wasn’t sure of the wattage. I melt mostly vendor wax and have heard others say Scentsy warmers don’t get hot enough. Now I know what criteria I’m looking for.
Yes you would be better off buying hot plates from a different company, or there are lots of good ceramic 25w bulb warmers that do well with most vendor wax. Typically the softer the vendor wax the better it will do in Scentsy’s warmers.
Thanks for watching!! I appreciate it
After I watched this video I literally took my temp gun to all of my warmers. 😂
Edit: I have the Little Garden and Make A Scene warmers in my room, and I find the scent lasts forever in the Little Garden and still throws well, but in the Make A Scene, lasts for about half the time. So the lower wattage is kind of a pro in some ways. :) (For me, at least).
Exactly! It’s either STRONG (and wears off faster) or LONG LASTING (and lighter)
Just depends what your goals are.
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes I've got the best of both worlds with the two of them.:)
This is an excellent video!! Tysm 💗
Thank you
I just bought the Crystal Leaves one! It’s beautiful. Thanks for the video!
Yes it’s so pretty to look at
It's a super helpful and informative video you have done! 👌🏻👍🏻 Thank you very much! Now I can understand why my "Seashore" isn't performing so well as my ceramic mini warmers. I guess, I have to change and replace now some of my warmers.... By the way, Patricia, your warmers and your home are just beautiful. 💖
Excellent video! Exactly what I was looking for - Thank you 💜
😀 Let me know if I can answer any specific questions should they pop up
I’ve been looking everywhere for the “Crystal Leaves” and the “Elegance” warmers. Those 2 are just gorgeous.
My mom has told me that crystal leaves is my prettiest warmer
I love that huge warmer Pat!
They’re all huge...which one?
I love your videos. They are very informative. Thank you!
You’re welcome...let me know if you have any questions and I’ll do my best to answer!
Hi from Montreal 🇨🇦 The Elegance warmer is my bucket list warmer ! I can’t seem to get my hands on it, I’ve tried twice with no luck. Great tour!
It’s a beauty! Good luck in your quest
Love all your warmers! I’ve got more warmers than surfaces to put them on lol. So I just interchange them seasonally 😍 TFS Doll! 🌹❤️
Sounds like the approach of an addict
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes I think so 🤣😂
This was sooooo helpful!!!! Thank you for putting this together! I will be watching it again because there is so much great information!
I just ordered the Christmas Camper - hoping it will be a good performer 🤞🏻 I also purchased the little buffalo check snowflake plug in wall warmer.
I have the aspen warmer and will pull it out and see how it stacks up.
I haven’t heard anything bad about the Christmas Camper warmer. The mini warmer sounds like it’s glass if it’s the one I think is. Just don’t put in a cool or drafty area.
I have the Christmas camper warmer and it’s a great performer! I hope you love it!
Loved this video!!! So informative, thank you!!!
Thank you for doing this video! I loved it! Very informative! Also my mom gave me this element warmer and I had NO idea what it was called or anything and you named it! It’s the star dance element warmer! It doesn’t have any indication on how many watts it is or anything so thank you for all your help!
Im glad you found it helpful!
Star Dance was the warmer that came in my join kit (feb 2018) and I still have it
Patricia, in your video you said you are not sure about the wattage of the Zen Rock warmer. I have it here and its written 10 W. And you are totally right in one thing: 2 cubes inside my Zen Rock Element warmer aren't performing as well as 1 Cube is doing well in my Etched Core mini warmer 15 W ceramic.... And I was wondering why it is so.... Now everything became clear for me... Thank you once more! And sorry for my not so good English 😊🙏🏻 🇩🇪
Love the elegance warmer - so beautiful!!
I bought 2 of the fluted gray warmers last summer during the scentsy flash sale but I have yet to use them!! I just set up my fall scentsy warmer(Gold Leaf) and pushed the fluted gray to the front so I remember to maybe use that one next after thanksgiving. :)
Yes, just be careful of the iridescent finish on the dish of the fluted gray. It’s a great warmer though.
This video should be shown at Scentsy Central-you are the queen of wax/wax warmers. Do you melt Scentsy wax exclusively?
Mostly Scentsy. I’d say 80%
The rest is retail or vendor wax
VERY helpful! Thank you.
Your videos are the best! I'm in the market for a few new warmers, great info here although I have to say it's making it even harder for me to make a final decision (I lean toward pretty glass warmers) ..
Sometimes each type can have their place in your home if you use strategy
Love your videos, this was super helpful!
Thank you! Do you have a favourite warmer?
I so love watching you 👑
Lol - thanks!
Have a great rest of your weekend
Hello from Enfield!! I LOVE your informative videos Patricia! AND you look so familiar! My dental office is in Sackville LOL but maybe I've just seen your somewhere. I've just recently discovered your videos and they're so great, so full of helpful information. This one is perfect, I'll be picking up another warmer in the next while and so I appreciated your helpful information around element v. glass v. ceramic. I've used scentsy on and off for years and am back to it - October seems to do that to me! I'm working from home and so have warmers going all day these days. I will be watching what you're up to in the coming weeks. PS: Maple apple bourbon!!!! Just loving it. Cedar cider is a close second for me at the moment!
I live in Beaver Bank so I’m in Sackville all the time. I actually have some customers in Enfield and I was just at the Big Stop this weekend! Small world!
Yes any time you have a question feel free to reach out
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes It IS a small world! (We lived in Millwood before Enfield too) Thanks Patricia! Looking forward to watching more :)
That was very helpful. Thanks!
Very educational, thank you!
Very welcome!
Yes the element warmers should say what they are. It’s annoying that they don’t. Frankly it won’t sway me one way or another knowing before hand, but the fact that they hide it is questionable 🤨. I have enough warmers that I look more for style. Would be nice if they were transparent about the wattage. Lovely video, thanks for all the tips! ☺️
I’m surprised they haven’t taken that one simple step. It’s better to give all info about the warmer so people know what they would be getting.
Yes, I hope they make the change in the future. So redundant to say “element” on the wattage description online. 🤨
Great video! So much helpful information!
I much prefer the porcelain warmers too, I do love the look of the glass ones though
I love the Spider-Man warmer but I didn’t go for it because it came off at the base. I can see that breaking in my 3 yr olds room 😄
Yes luckily it’s in the far corner so he doesn’t make it over there very much! Fingers crossed
Bought the Peace and Prosperity warmer and hate it. I will never buy an element warmer again. Throws NO scent at all. I'm so sad. Replacing it with a lightbulb warmer.
This was such a cool video.
I’m glad you liked the video. If you ever have any specific warmer questions please don’t hesitate to reach out.
favorite video so far!
Thank you
Thank you for this!
My pleasure
Can you do a suggestions video for new warmers?? I’m thinking the petal one is equivalent to this but I’d love to hear your perspective!
It would be purely speculation on my part. I’m not sure that would be wise to guess. I can wait a bit and try to hear feedback
oh! I was thinking the diamond milk glass element is 8w. I have it but haven’t used it in a while so can’t remember! Great information!
I think the year that one came out all the other elements were 8w except that one.
I should have mentioned the ever popular Aloe Vera warmer is a 12w.
Patricia G •Nose to Toes• This makes me so happy! LOL I think I always assumed it was 8w because of how small it is! Need to pull that bad boy out and use it! I also have the Southwest Splendor that’s a similar design. I think it’s 12W too. You made my day!
Very informative, thank you 🙏🏻
Looking for a high performer, I almost got a cute one but it’s not high enough voltage so I am going to hold off.
Yes it can be tough to find a great performer that also has the looks you want. Sometimes I do buy some just for looks
My next warmer will be ceramic damn it lol. I usually go for glass. My daughters warmer (like your beacon but in pink) also from a flash sale was the best I’ve owned, now I know why. I just ordered the zen rock for my nephew, I hope your right about 12 watts🤞 It was one of cheaper element warmers. I don’t know the wattage of the Frenchie but I can confirm that warmer sucks as far as performance, even though it’s my favourite😊
When the Zen Rock comes in let me know the wattage
Very helpful video
Thanks 4 all your videos. Always spot on with scents! Any thoughts on live simply warmer?
I have it and really like it. Big huge dish and close to the bulb. Performs fairly well for me!
Are use the Sensi wax melts and I find that once the fragrance is gone from one side if you melt it just enough so that you can take the wax out you can flip it over put it back in and it smells just like you just put in fresh cubes it’s fantastic I love it
Yes that’s a great hack! Or alternatively stir the wax with a mini spatula (designated for wax after that)
Love this video so much information that I didn’t now I really enjoyed it.Do you leave your warmers on 24 hours ? I agree on ceramic warmers through more
I love watching your video
My downstairs sons room and my daughters room yes, unless we leave the house. All the other ones are on varying times and are usually turned off at night.
I recently got into scentsy and bought a licensed star wars R2D2 unit. Absoluteley love it, quality etc. After that they released a mandolarian themed wax warmer so I immediately purchased it. Unlike my first unit i was thoroughly disappointed. Unlike my originaly unit which was a sealed all in one unit, this one was merely a light bulb stand where u placed the warmer on top of it. to turn the unit on or off you have to pick the whole unit up and remove it to get to the switch. why cant all the units be all in one? funny thing is i paid half the price for the all in one unit than i diud for the lightbulb with a unit that sits on top of it.
Maybe reach out to your consultant and discuss if it’s been within 30 days of purchase. They might be able to arrange an exchange for another warmer with scentsy if you’re dissatisfied- but in that case you usually have to pay to ship back.
Welllll now I really want the fluted gray warmer. 🤣
It’s a great one!! I believe it went on a flash sale so keep that in mind if you see it for sale
Patricia G •Nose to Toes• I just ordered it today it for $57 with free shipping, 6 bars, and a brick on Mercari! I thought it was a pretty good buy and I’m excited to get it!
Happy New Year! The mini warmers look huge. If I plug into the top outlet is there room to plug in another item into the bottom outlet for like a blow dryer?
Yes you can use the bottom plug still for other things.
Excellent video! Thank you so much for sharing and explaining the different kinds of warmers. Is there any way to encourage Scentsy to include the wattage of element warmers in the description, perhaps someone to email? I haven't bought any element warmers for this reason. Thanks again for this video! ~Christine
I’d say if enough buzz is heard and perhaps if they get consultants and customers calling to inquire before making their purchase??
Have u used little garden warmer? I've not used element warmers. I'm deciding on little garden versus aloe
Little garden is 10w. I believe Aloe Vera is 12w so a bit stronger.
This was great! I never thought about the darker ceramic warmers retaining more heat. Makes perfect sense!! I had to part ways with my midnight copper element warmer- I think it was 8W- it stopped throwing scent completely. :(.
I’ve never had the midnight copper warmer. However I do tend to stay away from all element warmers and only own 3, one of which was my warmer in my starter kit.
Thank you for the tour! How do I find the the video for your freezer method?
I don’t have a freezer method video. Basically once your warmer is off and the wax and dish are room temperature you put the dish in the freezer. Depending on wax type it can take as little as 10 minutes or up to an hour (can leave overnight for convenience sake) to contract slightly. Then if you turn the dish upside down or put a twist type of pressure on the wax disc, it then pops out.
Hope that helps!
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes thank you!
How is the throw for Free to Fly? I prefer that one, but does Etched Core have a much better throw? Your videos are really informative and helpful. Thank you!
It’s fairly good. I haven’t noticed it better or worse than other ceramic warmers. I love the large dish so that helps heat up a large surface area of wax but the warmer is also wider than the Etched Core so that might be a negative in terms of heat retention if comparing the two.
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes Thank you ~ I ended up just getting both. Etched core is *slightly* better, but Free to Fly is so pretty that it makes up for it and I just use it in a smaller room. Another good performer is Stone Leaf. Thanks, again!
Are you familiar with the Prairie Pitcher warmer? I just got it this week for my kitchen and it gets VERY hot. It's definitely the hottest warmer from Scentsy I've ever had. I'm thinking since it gets so hot, it'll cause my scent to dissipate quicker right?
Yes the hitter the warmer gets the stronger the scent will be but it will wear off faster
What warmers have a bulb close to lid ? Also how would scentsy know if you are burning other vendors wax ?
They wouldn’t know and actually st my last call into support they said it’s ok to use other companies but obviously they prefer you use Scentsy.
Warmers that are shorter usually have a bulb and dish proximity…Live Simply, Etched core
Do you think aspen grove or stone leaf is the best thrower? Or can you tell me which one is your best thrower? Care more about making large living room smell nice over the appearance…
It’s hard because it’s subjective. I’ve had great luck with Fluted Gray, Aspen Grove, Stone Leaf, Boho Chic, the regular Etched Core (white), Live Simply, Hunny Pot
Lots of good ones
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes sweet! the stone leaf is on sale now, so gonna snag it! the hunny pot is also super cute!
What is the throw like on the Deja Moo warmer? It is cute, but I am worried that it would not perform well. Thanks!
It’s only an 8w so very gentle heat and a light throw. Would be good as an adjunctive warmer for layering scents or if you find scents too strong it might help dampen them but I would consider it primarily a looks warmer. Would be fine if you have other warmers in the same area to carry the workload.
Personally I don’t buy 8w warmers.
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes thanks so much!
Not even half an hour later and I'm baaaaaAck lol. Any insight on any of these mini warmers (gatsby, wildlife and aspen) ? The only mini warmer I have right now is the vintage glass one and it's pretty enough but it's also obnoxiously heavy. Hoping you've had at least one of these pass through your hands and can tell it's lighter? I'm thinking aspen is probably the lightest of the three 🤔 I'm also picking up the opulance warmer and I think they'll look nice together. Then again I have the full sized wild life warmer so how could I not get that one?? Ahhhh the struggle is real tonight...please haaaaalp
The glass ones are pretty heavy, especially the shape,of the Wildlife one. The Aspen would not be very heavy but sadly those 3 you mentioned I don’t think will be strong performers. The Aspen is a toss up as I’ve never tried the metal and carbonate (or whatever the core is made of) but I have heard a few issues with performance in the Wire You Blushing warmer.
Depends if you want the warmers for brightness, looks (lighter throw with the glass) or a bit stronger in performance with the watm glow,of ceramic.
Thanks Patricia!! I love that you always answer people back, and usually quickly:)) I was definitely already feeling iffy on the aspen warmer and now I think I'm definitely ruling that one out. Wish I would've scooped up the lavender love before it sold out. I'll be patient or maybe find something ceramic I like on ebay ..
The lavender love one will be restocked If that’s any consolation
The mini etched core would be a good neutral choice
Oh! are those ceramic?!! They looked like some kind of metal to me
The coloured mini etched cores are ceramic with a metallic painted on finish but there is a Etched Core (standard porcelain with no colour added) that would work very well in either mini or full size
Does these heaters even waarom tour room a bit?
The Warner’s warm the wax and scent the room but they don’t get so hot that they add heat to the area.
So my apple and cinnamon sticks fragrance flower dried up in 7 days. No joke. Like there is no oil at all!! It is NOT altered in anyway what so ever. What can Scentsy do because each consultant I’ve talked to is not responding to me at all. I’m nervous to buy any other scents in the bell design now... Can you point me into the right direction? Thanks so much!!
Talk to your consultant and get them to call consultant/ customer support.
If they won’t then you can call Scentsy yourself but they should go to bat for you. The flowers will soak up a lot of oil in the first few days but never the whole amount that fast. Is it close to anything that the oil might be filtering through the flower and onto that item?
I’m not crazy about that flower in performance as it’s a weaker one IMO. Scentsy should get you a replacement one though. It’s usually an easy process once you call them and your consultant should have no problems calling and doing that for you.
Get in touch with the consultant you bought it from ,they should help you
Patricia G •Nose to Toes• no nothing that is close to an item. That’s what I thought too but I have it on the top of my toilet. Definitely disappointed with my consultant too as she is ignoring my messages so thank you for this helpful information!! I’ve loved all other fragrance flowers in pass experiences. This helped me out a ton. Thanks again and loved the video!
Endless Possibilities if you can message me on Instagram @patriciagaetz I can call for you next week when they open
(Or email me pmgaetz@eastlink.ca)
If you can go through old emails and see if you can find the order number or any info that might be helpful too
Do they not sell the sleeves for the etched core anymore?
Not any more
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes bummer.
Hi there do you know what the larger succulent warmer wattage is please?
The Suc-cute-lent is 12w.
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes thankyou Patricia I really appreciate the time you put in to your videos
They are so informative
You do a great job
My pleasure! It’s a good warmer…I think the fact that the dish is ceramic really helps too
Which regular size warmers are ceramic?
Boy there are a lot. I’d say look for “light holes” or vent holes in the body of the warmer . Those are ceramic. If you want just look at the options and if you’re unsure shoot me a message or come back here and I’ll verify for you.
A great full size one is Etched Core (not silver, rose gold I’ve etc) just the plain white ceramic)
Also Salerno in both full or mini
@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes would the classic curve one be a good one?
It’s a bit wide and struggles to melt the wax in the corners of the dish sometimes from what I’ve heard.
Sneak on warmers? Wow lol. So if someone is sensitive and complains just... lie! Very nice.
I like your approach!
