Here's how to tell if your scented candles are affected.
According to the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission, Target just announced a recall of nearly 5 million Threshold scented candles. This came as a result of receiving 137 reports of the jar cracking or breaking while in use. There were six injuries reported including severe burns and lacerations. Home Decor Candle
These candles were sold at Target locations across the United States as well as on Target.com from August 2019 through March 2023 and were priced between $3 and $20 per candle.
If you have any one of the candles listed below, stop using them immediately. You can bring them back to your local Target store for a refund. Alternatively, you can call Target at 800-440-0680 from 7 am to 10 pm CT, seven days a week to request a prepaid return label if you’d prefer a refund that way.
Trim the wick. Keep the wick to between 1/8 and 3/16 of an inch. A longer wick will produce a larger flame, which can increase the risk of a fire.
Never leave lit candles unattended. When you have a candle burning, it's best to stay in the same room so you can keep an eye on it.
Place candles on a safe and sturdy surface. Keep candles away from flammable materials, such as curtains or throw blankets. Place the candle away from the edge of the table or counter.
