No incident, no one hurt Made Oct 16, 2025, sent to the company Oct 28, 2025, published by CPSC Nov 26, 2025
The product, in the report: The product is a DW Home Harvest Cider single-wick scented candle purchased from HomeGoods in Plano, TX. It comes in a 4-inch amber-orange glass jar with a matching lid and white soy-blend wax. The candle was used indoors on a flat dining table under normal conditions.
On the morning of October 2, 2025, I was burning a DW Home Harvest Cider candle purchased at the HomeGoods store located at [REDACTED] Plano, TX. After about 30 minutes of use, the glass jar suddenly exploded while sitting on our dining table. The candle still had approximately inch of wax remaining, and the wick had been trimmed to about inch before lighting. The wick remained lit even after the glass shattered, and hot wax and glass shards were projected across the table and floor, leaving burn damage on the table. My young son and I were nearby in the adjoining kitchen and could have been injured had we been seated at the table. There were no fans, vents, or drafts present, and the candle had been burning under normal household conditions. While no one was physically harmed, the force of the explosion and resulting debris presented a clear safety risk.
Following the incident, I contacted DW Home directly and provided detailed information, photos, and a video of the aftermath. The company reviewed my submission but concluded that it is possible for the glass to overheat and crack due to incorrect product use, stating that they are unable to determine that the cause of the breakage is not due to product misuse. They offered only a store credit as resolution (which I did not accept... because, BOOM!?!).
I am concerned that similar products could pose a danger to other consumers, whether they follow candle “guidelines” or not, which likely most people assume they can just burn a candle, blow it out, and not leave it unattended and they are doing it correctly.
