Lea Industries is recalling approximately 520 lighted night stands sold in three different styles (Willow Run and Americana) because a light fixture under the unit can overheat. This defect can scorch carpeting and poses a burn hazard to consumers. The firm has already received three reports of the fixtures overheating and scorching carpets, though no injuries have been reported yet. Affected units were sold at furniture stores nationwide and online at Hayneedle.com between March 2013 and April 2014.
The 20-watt halogen bulb located on the underside of the bottom panel can generate excessive heat during use, which can lead to the scorching of nearby floor coverings and presents a potential burn risk.
Consumers should immediately unplug the night stand light from the outlet and contact Lea Industries to arrange for a free repair and a $50 gift card. Only night stands with a light fixture are included in this recall.
