Hurt, no treatment Made Dec 22, 2017, sent to the company Mar 21, 2018, published by CPSC Apr 5, 2018
The product, in the report: Tea light holder. Silver metal
I had a tea light burning in a metal votive holder purchased at Ikea. I glanced a large flame from an adjacent room and went to see. The votive holder was on fire. I tried to blow the flame out and it came back larger. The flames reached about a foot high and burned my hair. My husband came in, also tried blowing and the flame came back larger. My husband grabbed two utensils on the table and carefully used those to carry the burning votive to the kitchen sink. Water caused the flames to initially spread across the sink. With enough water the fire went out. The votive burned through to my dining room table and burned it.
