  • No one hurt 1 CPSC: Incident, No Injury

As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    Made May 29, 2012, sent to the company Jul 6, 2012, published by CPSC Jul 27, 2012

    The product, in the report: Scented tea candle, plastic container

    On 5/23/2012, the consumer stated that her tea candle in a plastic container suddenly caught fire while on top of the fire place. The consumer extinguished the fire immediately. She noticed that the plastic itself was charred and believed that’s what started the fire. The consumer contacted the retailer and they advised her that she could bring the product in for a full refund. The consumer feels that the product is a safety hazard because her home could’ve easily caught fire if she were not in the vicinity of the room.
