Dunelm's Harry Potter-style floating candles get 'elegant' reviews

Dunelm is selling a set of 10 Floating LED Candles for £15, and shoppers are calling them 'elegant' with a Harry Potter vibe. The candles are designed to add ambience to darker nights as autumn and winter approach.

Four colours and battery-powered design

The candles come in four colours: silver, black, gold or white. They are said to make any room 'merry and bright' and can be draped over a tree or around the home for a magical, cosy aesthetic.

Each light offers a warm white LED glow and is battery powered, requiring one AAA battery per candle.

Shopper reviews praise look, note assembly fiddliness

The 10 Floating LED Candles have been rated 4.5 out of 5 stars from over 160 reviews at Dunelm. One person wrote: “These are so beautiful, look very elegant on my tree. They are just perfect for the festive season.”

Another added: “Can’t wait to use these at Christmas, Easter and Halloween! Gorgeous.” A third commented: “Second time buying these candles. Last year's are still going strong.”

Some reviewers removed a star, with one saying: “This is a fantastic looking product when unpicked, unravelled, loaded with batteries and hung, but it’s very fiddly to assemble and prevent from twining together.” Another added: “Really effective but the batteries don’t last - I’ve been changing batteries daily which isn’t what I expected.”

Alternative floating candle options

Argos offers the Habitat Pack of 6 White Lightup Floating Candles for £12. These are also battery powered and designed to be suspended over a dining table or grouped in clusters. They can be remote controlled and set to come on using a timer feature.

Amazon has the Liven 24 Pcs Halloween LED Magic Hanging Floating Candles for £15.33, down from £16.14. This set includes 24 candles and two magic wands, and is said to 'reproduce the magic world scene', fitting in with the spooky season.
