I use it in my bedroom. You only need to put a little bit of oil in it and it lasts a long time. I just put enough to coat the bottom of the oil cup and it lasts over a week if I don't change the scent. With a oil burner with a flame candle I don't get the same results. I think its pretty and goes with many decors. I don't think the rocks block the scent from coming out. There is no real flame so its safer to use around my cats, who were curious at first but now they don't bother it. There is also an auto shut off feature that turns the unit off after 6 hours. The only con is that it has to be plugged in for the scent. You can use the candle part on just batteries. I like the idea of using different rocks or marbles to change the look. I might try that.

I have a very large, inquisitive dog, that does not need to be around real flames. Also, my hubby has asthma, so we use scented candles infrequently; mostly during entertaining. So I loved the idea that some of the flameless candles offered optional diffusers, just for those special occasions. Also, that there is NO smoke, which itself can disturb allergies, and there is increasing scientific evidence that toxins emitted, burning candles, can be a health hazard. <br/><br/>However, some of the first flameless candles that I saw, did not look very realistic, at all. Very cheesy! The lights did not flicker...there was no realism. Thank goodness, they are making progress, so that we can now bring them home and display them proudly, while increasing our safety. <br/><br/>I purchased the AromaSpa Candle and couldn't be more pleased. I've had it for 3 months and I ritualistically turn it on almost every evening. I find it quite soothing and very realistic, with the flickering light. I have mine located where I am able to plug it in, unobtrusively. So, I generally leave it on until it turns itself off, in six hours. Since mine is plugged in, I have no problems using the diffuser, if I so desire, and it offers sufficient aroma to satisfy me, without overdoing it. <br/><br/>It just so happens, that I had a large, clear glass plate, that came with river rocks and three real candles. I had long ago used the candles but immediately thought that this candle would look great nestled in the plate of river rocks. I was right! It looks as though they came together and added to the elegance of the total picture. It is really attractive. <br/><br/>There are so many places where flameless candles can bring peace and tranquility, where real flames aren't permitted. For the hospitalized patient. Anyone home-bound, or disabled that might not want to deal with managing a real candle. For that forgetful senior citizen, or the teen, that you just don't trust with real candles in their room, just yet. A dull office, or a little cube space, could sure be brought to life and maybe offer a Zen moment here, and there. <br/><br/>Okay, enough said! You can see I'm turned on by this candle :-) and the idea of flameless candles, in general. I think you just might, too. <br/><br/>I'm fixing to buy more for gifts and one for my bedroom. It will be so nice to fall asleep knowing it will turn off by itself, if I drift off. <br/><br/><br/><br/> When I first heard of the flameless candles, I kept thinking, ‘what a Godsend for a challenged, safety conscious household.’ I have a very large, inquisitive dog, that does not need to be around real flames.

Does not throw the fragrance particularly well - could use a little fan or room for more oil, candle does not look as real as other flameless candles I've seen, the river rocks don't serve a function and look a bit odd to me.
