A Child Products & Toy Consumer Product Recall Alert Has Been Issued: Target Recalls Children’s Task Lamps Due to Laceration and Fire Hazards. The recalled child product and/or toy reportedly has the following potential safety hazard:
Lamps may overheat, causing the adhesive inside the lamp socket to melt and migrate into the bulb area of the socket. The cooled glue can adhere to the light bulb base and make the bulb difficult to remove which can result in a broken light bulb, posing a risk of laceration to consumers. Melted flammable glue that migrates onto the electrical components of the lamp poses a risk of fire.
