Has anyone used these to cleanse the ears ? I have had a mixed response so far.

Even the Hopi Indians are upset that their name is associated with this!!

Hopi Ear Candles
Where do Ear Candles Originate From?
They are often known as Hopi Candles, which refers to the Hopi tribe of North America but the Hopi people are actually quite upset that their name is being used for marketing purposes, mostly because it's a lie. They deny any association with ear candling. There are various other claims such as the ancient Egyptians and South Americans used them but there is no real evidence for this either.

I found that there is no scientific evidence that ear candling pulls out debris from the ear canal. Some tests shows that there aren't reduction in earwax after candling. In some cases, there are even and increase in wax because of the wax deposited by the candles.
