Pier 1 Imports Recalls Tealight Candle Holders Due to Fire Hazard
Fire
The hazard
The spacing of the holes in a concentrated pattern allows the holder to heat up. This can cause the tealights to burn unexpectedly fast and with a higher flame height than normal, posing a fire hazard.
Incidents reported: Pier 1 Imports has received seven reports of high flames. No injuries have been reported.
What to do now
The firm is no longer in business. The remedy is no longer available. Discard the product.
