Hazard

The oil candles can become engulfed in flames and melt the plastic cups holding the candles in place, allowing hot wax to leak out, which poses fire and burn hazards to consumers.

Incidents & injuries

Both firms have received eight reports of the candles igniting and the plastic melting. No injuries have been reported.
