Christmas Tree Shops is recalling about 35,000 Animated Safari and Aquarium Lamps. Defective wiring in the lamps can cause an electrical short, posing fire and shock hazards to consumers.
Christmas Tree Shops has received three reports of sparking. No injuries or property damage have been reported.
This recall involves Safari and Aquarium themed lamps with UPC numbers 000015556905, 000015618955, 000015821591 and 000015821607 printed on the price label on the cardboard packaging. The decorative lamps are silver and feature rotating films with aquatic and safari scenes. While there are no brand markings directly on the product, "Made in China" is printed on the bottom of the lamp.
Christmas Tree Shops stores sold the items primarily in the New England, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions from December 2009 through May 2011 for between $7 and $8. They were made in China.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled lamps and return them to Christmas Tree Shops store for a full refund.
