Nantucket Distributing Co. Inc. is recalling holiday tea candle warmers sold at Christmas Tree Shops.
The candle warmers can catch fire because the warming bowl is positioned too close to the tea light candle, posing fire and burn hazards.
The firm has received one report of the Snowmen candle warmer catching on fire causing a minor burn injury to a consumer’s hand.
This recall involves holiday-themed tea light candle warmers in the shapes of snowmen and gingerbread houses. A warming bowl with wax fragrance tablets is suspended above the tea light candle. The Snowmen model has SKU/UPC 000016005396 and the Gingerbread house model has SKU/UPC 000016005372 printed on a label on the bottom of the product. The tea light candle warmers are about eight inches tall.
Christmas Tree Shops in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest sold the candles from November 2011 through December 2011 for about $8. They were made in China.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled tea light candle warmers and return them to any Christmas Tree Shops store to receive a full refund.
