The most recent is “Designs Direct Recalls Cupcakes and Cashmere Brand Three-Light Floor Lamps, Due to Risk of Serious Injury from Fire and Burn Hazards” (CPSC 27-007), announced October 1, 2026.

Yes. As of October 31, 2026, CPSC has published 1 recall notice for lamps in 2026, on October 1, 2026 (CPSC 27-007).

What is the largest lamp recall?

“IKEA Recalls Children's Wall-Mounted Lamps Due to Strangulation Hazard; One Child Death Reported” (CPSC 14-052), announced December 11, 2013: about 2.9 million units.

Which brands have recalled lamps?

Brands named most often: IKEA (5), L G Sourcing (3), Target (3), West Elm (3), Crate & Barrel (2), Currey (2), Designs Direct (2) and IKEA North America (2), plus 46 more brands. Brand-name products are often made by another firm, so one recall can span several brands.

How do I check if my lamp is recalled?

Find the model number on the product's rating label, then type it into the model-number lookup on this page. A match means the number appears in an official CPSC notice; open that notice to confirm any date codes or serial ranges it lists. No match is not proof that a product is safe. 16 of the 63 notices here list model numbers. They also name serial numbers in 2, date codes or manufacture dates in 15 and lot or batch numbers in 2. The place they name most often is “on the packaging and on the bottom of the lamp base”.

What should I do if my lamp is recalled?

Follow the remedy in the official notice and contact the firm it names. Across lamp recalls, the remedies offered most often are refund (31), replacement (9) and repair (5).
