Summary

Olympic Mountain Products has recalled approximately 209,000 Essenza Elements Series Tealight Wax Warmer sets because the included tealight candles can burn with an erratic or high flame. There have been 22 reports of these high flames, including two minor burn injuries and one incident of property damage. These sets, which come in white with a green dish or brown with an orange dish, were sold exclusively at Costco from August to October 2014. Consumers should immediately stop using these sets and return them to any Costco location for a full refund.

Risk

The tealights can produce unpredictably high or erratic flames, which can cause the surrounding materials to catch fire or cause burn injuries to anyone nearby.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your tealight wax warmer for the brand name 'Essenza' printed on the front of the packaging and Costco item number #852473 printed on the sides.
  2. Verify the color: the affected white ceramic warmers have a green glass dish, and the brown ceramic warmers have an orange glass dish.
  3. Immediately stop using the ceramic warmer, the tealight candles, and the scented wax cubes included in the set.
  4. Return the complete tealight wax warmer set to any Costco Wholesale store to receive a full refund.
  5. If you have further questions, contact Olympic Mountain Products toll-free at (800) 937-2545 anytime, or visit www.MyEssenza.com and click on the 'Recall Alert Notice.'
