  1. No one hurt

    Made Dec 15, 2019, sent to the company Jan 13, 2020, published by CPSC Jan 28, 2020

    The product, in the report: Braxton pre lit led christmas tree. 7.5 foot 700l 8 function. Model number 1004 391 988

    I bought a Braxton pre lit led christmas tree from the home depot on black friday. The sale price was 79.98. On December 15th the tree turned off, upon looking it over the foot switch plastic housing looked like it had started to melt. I took the switch apart and found the circuit board burnt. It had gotten hot enough to start to melt the solder. Once the switch was removed the tree works fine at the moment.
