Details
Light the Comfort Spice candle and let the room settle into the warmth of brown sugar, cinnamon stick, vanilla, pralines, and a soft lemon finish. Hand-poured with natural soy wax, this 9 oz candle brings a gentle glow and cozy fall atmosphere to slow mornings, quiet evenings, seasonal gatherings, and thoughtful housewarming moments. Its clear glass vessel looks simple on a shelf or table, while the white lid helps protect the candle between burns. With an average burn time of 50–60 hours, it offers plenty of time to make everyday rituals feel a little more comforting. Afterward, clean and reuse the glass container for décor or storage.

Questions, answered.

What does ALEC do?

ALEC is a glass candle holder with a built-in timer and a lid. Place a jar candle inside, light it, and set the timer. When the timer ends, the lid closes over the candle, cutting off air to the flame so it goes out.

Which candles fit?

Small (body 5.28″ wide × 6.25″ tall) holds jar candles up to 5″ wide and 5″ tall. Large (body 5.00″ wide × 7.50″ tall) is made for taller jar candles. It is slightly slimmer than Small, so check your jar's width as well as its height. Measure your jar at its widest point and full height. Not sure? Contact us with your candle's size and we'll help.

How do I set the timer?

Use the controls on the base to choose a burn time, then light your candle. The instructions included with ALEC explain the timer options step by step.

How is ALEC powered?

ALEC is rechargeable. Follow the charging instructions included in the box.

Can I leave a candle burning in ALEC unattended?

No. Treat ALEC like any candle holder: never leave a burning candle unattended, keep it away from anything that can catch fire, and keep it out of reach of children and pets. The timer and lid are a convenience, not a replacement for supervision.

How do I care for ALEC?

Let the holder and candle cool completely before touching, moving, or cleaning. Wipe the glass with a soft, dry cloth.

Is ALEC a good gift?

ALEC arrives in a gift box, so it is ready to give. It suits anyone who already burns jar candles at home.

Can I return ALEC?

All sales are final, so we don't accept returns or give refunds. Please check the fit guide before you order. If your ALEC arrives damaged or doesn't work, contact us within 7 days of delivery with your order number and photos, and we'll send a replacement. Read the full policy.

How much is shipping?

U.S. standard shipping is free on orders of $70 or more (two ALECs always qualify). Under $70, standard shipping is $8, and Express is $15. Exact options are shown at checkout before you pay. We currently ship within the U.S.
