Dolan Northwest is recalling about 1,100 Burien model floor lamps because the on/off foot switch can fail and melt, posing serious shock and fire hazards. The firm has received three reports of switches melting, including one instance of property damage to a floor. These 72-inch tall lamps feature four light sockets with white glass shades and were sold in stainless steel and bronze finishes at various Pacific Northwest lighting showrooms and online from November 2010 through September 2012. Consumers should immediately stop using the lamps and follow repair or replacement instructions depending on where they were purchased.
The foot-operated power switch can malfunction and melt during use. This failure creates an electrical short that can cause a fire or expose users to live electricity, resulting in a risk of shock or burns.
Consumers should immediately stop using and unplug the recalled lamp and return it to the store for a repair. The store will replace the on/off foot switch with a new plug and dimmer. Consumers who purchased the lamps online should contact Dolan NW for a replacement lamp.
