Reviews
Sarah Levine
I bought a full range of Shabbos and Chanukah items from Ner Mitzvah last year, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. The candles burned evenly with no dripping, and the colors of the Chanukah sets were richer than any brand I’d used before. What impressed me most was the consistency—every product felt thoughtfully made, and it truly elevated our family’s holiday rituals.

Using Ner Mitzvah’s prefilled oil cups made our Shabbos setup unbelievably easy. The burn time was exactly as promised, and the flames were bright and steady, giving our table a beautiful glow. I also appreciated the clear packaging and safety-focused design. It’s rare to find products that combine convenience, tradition, and quality so seamlessly.

I recently switched to Ner Mitzvah’s beeswax and memorial candles, and the difference was immediate. The beeswax had a natural, elegant scent, and the memorial candles lasted the full duration without flickering or producing smoke. It felt like every detail—from the wick quality to the glass holders—was crafted with genuine care for the mitzvah experience.
