Target is recalling 2.2 million candles in jars over risks the jars will crack when lit and cause cuts and burns, the Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced. The candles have injured at least six people.
A total of 62 varieties of Threshold brand candles sold in glass jars were recalled. Target received reports of 19 incidents of the products breaking or cracking when lit, resulting in one minor injury.
The candles were sold at Target stores nationwide and at Target.com from February 2020 through July 2023. For the full list of scents, sizes and item numbers, see the recall announcement. The item numbers are printed on the bottom of the jars.
Consumers are advised to immediately stop using the recalled candles and return them to any Target store for a full refund. You may also contact the company to receive a prepaid label to return them by mail.
In May, nearly 5.5 million Threshold brand candles were recalled for the same hazards. The company received 137 reports of the candles breaking, resulting in six injuries, including cuts and severe burns, according to the recall announcement.
Target may be contacted from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. CT at 800-440-0680 or online.
