Crate and Barrel has recalled about 19,000 Finley Collection hanging pendant lamps because the electrical wires can be connected incorrectly. This defect is caused by polarity labels that are mislabeled or can fall off, which creates a significant risk of electrical shorts and fires. There have been four reports of these lamps shorting out, resulting in minor property damage and one minor burn injury. These lamps were sold in various shapes and sizes with white or wheat linen shades at Crate and Barrel stores and online from January 2009 through July 2013.
Incorrect wiring due to missing or inaccurate polarity labels can cause an electrical short circuit. This can lead to the lamp overheating, sparking, or causing electrical shocks and fires during use.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled lamp and contact Crate and Barrel for a replacement lamp of equal value or a full refund, including shipping and $100 reimbursement for charges incurred in removing and replacing recalled lamps by using a licensed electrician.
