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.

Remedy

The firm is no longer in business. The remedy is no longer available. Discard the product.

Incidents & injuries

Pier 1 Imports has received seven reports of high flames. No injuries have been reported.
