Target recalling over 2 million candles due to multiple hazards

10 August 2023

(WHTM) – Target is recalling millions of candles over concerns that the jars can break while in use, leading to burns and lacerations.

The recall involves 2.2 million Threshold Candles, sold exclusively at Target from February 2020 through July 2023, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced in an alert posted Thursday. Over 60 varieties of Threshold Candles are involved, including 5.5-ounce one-wick candles and the 20-ounce three-wick candles in multiple scents.

Only one injury has been reported thus far, though Target has received 19 reports of the candles breaking or cracking while in use.
