Target is recalling approximately 2.2 million Threshold brand glass jar candles because the jars can crack or break during use. The recall affects multiple scents of the 5.5-ounce 1-wick and 20-ounce 3-wick sizes sold between February 2020 and July 2023. There have been 19 reports of candle jars breaking or cracking, resulting in one minor injury. Consumers should immediately stop using these candles and return them to Target for a full refund.
The glass candle jars can unexpectedly break or crack while the candle is burning, which poses risks of cuts from broken glass and burns from the exposed flame or spilled hot wax. One minor injury has been reported in connection with this issue.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled candles and return them to any Target store for a full refund, or contact Target to receive a prepaid return label to return the candles by mail.
Item numbers are printed on the product stickers located on the bottom of the glass jars.
