Egloo – Heat, Fragrance and Humidify your Home
The weather has most definitely taken a turn for the colder and I’ve got a couple of things I have been holding onto since summer for review.
Mainly as they are most definitely more suited to the colder seasons.
The Egloo is one of them.
Egloo? You What?!
The Egloo was a Kickstarter project, which hit its target 4 times over.
Raising a huge 60,000 euros and is completely handmade in Italy.
It has been designed to not only heat a small room but release fragrance and is likely to be quite unlike anything you have come across before.
The Egloo is a simple to use device. Which can, at the start, look quite complex.
It is made up of 5 different sections; 2 terracotta domes, a terracotta base, steel plate and a grill.
The plate slips easily into the terracotta base. Into this, you want to add three wooden wicks (these are held in place by a magnet). The wax granules are poured in around the wicks, while the reservoir around the outside, holds water and fragrance.

When it comes to heating the room, it can take around 15 minutes for the Egloo to reach a temperature where this part kicks in.
Just in case anyone is worried about how to light your Egloo, a normal candle lighter will do the tick. You don’t need anything fancy.
It works by trapping warm air inside and gradually releasing it into the room, this is thanks to the two different size and thickness domes, which work together in harmony.
It can take 15 minutes for the Egloo to reach this point and it is worth mentioning that it can get up to 600 degrees, but it has been made to do this safely. However, of course, please never leave one unattended.
Also please be careful with ventilation, you don’t want to cover any of the given areas and make sure you follow the full instructions, to use this safely.
It is also worth mentioning that the water reservoir is an important part of how the Egloo runs. It works as a cooling system to keep the wax at a consistent temperature. As well as fragrancing and humidifying the room.
I Do Love The Egloo!
It is worth noting that due to the design of the Egloo, the light let off is minimal but it can make for a really nice ambience.
Each wick and natural wax packet last for around 4 hours. It is worth pointing out you should only use the Egloo with the packets they make for safety reasons.
Personally, I think this is a really unique design, I love the fact it heats and fragrances.
It is the perfect addition to any home for the cooler periods. As well as being a fun item to use at outdoor parties to add a bit of warmth and atmosphere to the surroundings.
If you want to buy an Egloo for yourself they start at €74 for this natural design. With prices going up to €189 for some absolutely stunning painted ones. Refill packs start at €9.99 for 10 pieces.
You can, of course, find out more about and buy an Egloo over on their website right now!
What do you think of the sound of an Egloo, is it something you would like to try in your home?
I received the products mentioned in this post free of charge, however, all opinions and thoughts are my own.

This has such a cool look – really different. I probably wouldn’t have one while the kids are small but perhaps in the future.
It is really nice – I can imagine not having it around kids as for sure you don’t want to knock it.
This is such a unique concept! I love the Eeglo, I think I could see this helping me in our home. I love that it tackles many different issues that people might have.
It is awesome it is really relaxing to have on around you as well.
This is a device that is different of others. I should try it!
Most definitely it really offers something a bit different.
This is my first time learning about this and I am impressed while reading your post. I want to have this too and I need to check the availability to my location. Definitely adding this to our house.
Oh yay I really hope you like it – I think they ship around the world 🙂
The Egloo looks like a unique and innovative product. Its simple and effective working makes it a nice gadget to use during the winters.
It is a really interesting product to have around the home, going to get a lot of people talking.
This is such a fabulous idea! I’ve seen similar designs made with simple terracotta plant pots, but this looks much more stylish for the home. A bit out of my price range though.
It is a really stylish item, it’s worth looking in the shop as the price changes depending on the style 🙂
I love that it’s a heater and releases fragrance too. The design is cute as well!

It is so nice they have really thought about everything it does.
This is a device that my grandma would benefit from.
It it something that all the family could really enjoy.
I enjoyed reading about this new product. It will make a great Christmas gift for someone!
Yes! This is so true – it’s something really different to offer as a present.
This is so cool! I love anything that smells great and makes a space more comfortable
Most definitely it’s a really unique take on that as well which I love!
Wow I love this and not seen anything like it. I love the duel purpose that it will heat a small room and release fragrance too xx
It is such a great set up – it looks really loving burning after dark too.
This is 1st time i am seeing some thing like this. I think i should give it a try.
Most definitely it is such an amazing device and you can use any scent in it you would like.
What a great idea. I bet this is something a lot of people can use in their homes. I hope they do great with their kickstarter. Fantastic!
There Kickstarter raided 4 times the amount they originally asked for – I thought I had said that in the post I’ll have to check now!
The shape of this is awesome. This would be used all winter in my home for great scent.
It is like the perfect winter addition! As it heats a little as well.
This is so unique and beautiful, I like that it can heat and release fragrance at the same time.
It is a real all-rounder isn’t it. You should see some of the painted ones they are stunning!
No wonder it bypassed its kickstarter goal, this thing is so cool! I agree, it gives off suck a nice glow
I love seeing Kickstarters work and this one for sure is amazing!
What an incredible innovative new idea! I am especially impressed with the fact that the light let off is minimal but it can create that soft and romantic ambience.
It is so nice I love the glow it gives off in lower light to be honest.
Now this is a nice way to improve the atmosphere of a room. I’m glad the design looks nice too. It could go on any one of my living room tables.
You should 100% check out the other designs, this is just plain one some of these others just make you go WOW!
How unique! I haven’t seen this before, so I’m intrigued. I might have to get one of these.
They are great aren’t they – I think it will make for a real talking point as well as they are so unique.
This looks really subtle. A lovely way to heat your home – it’s almost like a decoration too!
Some of the other ones really are, the paintings they have put on them are incredible.
Indeed this is an innovative product! I love that it heats as well as releasing a nice aroma into the air. It’s perfect for those chilly late autumn evenings when you don’t want to turn the heating on yet.
Most definitely it’s going to make the whole place around you feel so cosy!
I love any sort of fragrance diffuser. I just backed my first kickstater this week!
Ekk what Kickstarter did you back? I got a super backer badge this week whoops!
Love Kickstarter and try to lend my support to many of the new projects. The 4-hr burning / illuminating time is a lot compared to some of the similar products I’ve seen.
It really is – I guess it might be down to the type of wicks it uses perhaps? I have to say I love Kickstarter too.
This is something I’d definitely use in my home. I have something like this that is a smaller version and I use it almost everyday.
Oh that’s awesome I love that you have something similar and love it already!
Never seen anything like this before. Really is very pretty and seems to let off some light.
It does let off some light for sure it’s nice and subtle though.
