  1. No one hurt

    Made Mar 22, 2017, sent to the company May 8, 2017, published by CPSC May 29, 2017

    The product, in the report: Better Homes and Gardens scentsy wall plug.

    For those that purchased the Better Homes and Garden [REDACTED] sets 2016 Black Friday from Walmart, these are a fire hazard. I discovered it this morning with the original light bulb in it upon entering my kitchen. The interior plastic lining is burning as the smell coming from it this morning was sure not cinnamon but the smell of melting plastic. I do have a picture of this product that I have posted to [REDACTED] as I purchased several of these for gifts this past Christmas.
