Hazard: The ground connection in the track is defective, posing an electric shock hazard.
Thomas Lighting
Hazard: The fixture's socket wire insulation can degrade, leading to charged wires becoming exposed, causing electricity to pass to the metal canopy of the fixture. This poses a fire and electric shock hazard to consumers.
He Shan Lide of China
Hazard: The power cord for the lamp can detach where it meets the clamp, exposing energized wires, posing an electric shock risk to consumers.
Westinghouse Lighting
Hazard: The two 60-watt light bulbs included with the ceiling fans exceed the fan's maximum wattage, which can cause the ceiling fans to overheat or fail. This poses fire and shock hazards to consumers.
American Tack & Hardware Co. Inc. (AmerTac)
Hazard: An electrical short circuit in the night light can cause it to overheat and smolder or melt, posing fire and burn hazards to consumers.
Spectrum Home Furnishings
Hazard: The recalled chandeliers contain a mounting loop that can fail during use causing the chandeliers to fall from the ceiling and injure bystanders under the chandelier.
Designs Direct
Hazard: The electrical cord can fray near the base of the lamp, posing a fire or shock hazard to consumers.

Hazard: A short circuit can occur in the lamp's wiring, posing a shock hazard to consumers.
Big Lots
Hazard: The wiring for the lamp's light sockets can become exposed, posing a risk of electric shock to consumers. In addition, use of the recommended standard 40 watt light bulbs can generate excessive heat, which can melt the double plastic shades over the bulbs.
Corvest Acquisition Inc. (now Camsing Global LLC)
Hazard: The LED night lights can overheat, smolder, and melt which may cause minor burns to consumers.
Philips Lighting
Hazard: The glue that attaches the glass outer envelope or globe to the body of the lamp can fail allowing the glass outer envelope to fall and strike persons and objects below, posing a laceration hazard to consumers.
Target
Hazard: Lamps can 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.
