Target has issued a recall for approximately 2.2 million scented candles, exclusively sold at their stores, due to the risk of the glass jars shattering while the wick is burning. The recall, initiated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), applies to Threshold Glass Jar 5.5 ounce 1-Wick and 20 ounce 3-Wick Candles in various scents like Blue Agave & Cactus, Frosted Holly Berries, and Pineapple Sage. These candles, manufactured in Vietnam, have glass jars that are prone to cracking or breaking during use, potentially causing lacerations and burns.
There have been 19 reports of the glass jars breaking or cracking during use, with one incident resulting in a minor injury. Target sold these candles nationwide between February 2020 and July 2023 at prices ranging from $3 to $12. The recall specifically affects Threshold scented candles with the item numbers listed below, which can be found on the product stickers located on the bottom of the glass jars.
Customers who have purchased these candles are advised to stop using them immediately and return them to Target for a full refund. Alternatively, they can contact Target directly to request a prepaid shipping label to return the product by mail.
It is worth noting that this is not the first recall for the same brand of candles. In May, Target issued a similar recall for 14-ounce candles due to glass breakage issues. Consumers with further questions about the recall can reach out to Target at 1-800-440-0680 or visit help.target.com.
In conclusion, Target has taken swift action to recall the Threshold brand candles, prioritizing the safety of their customers. By promptly addressing the glass jar issue, Target aims to prevent any potential harm from occurring.
