Dec. 5, 2008

This safety recall of the Candle-Powered Pyramid is being voluntarily conducted by Gardener's Supply in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. Consumers should stop using the product immediately unless otherwise instructed.

Flame Weeder
Candle-Powered Pyramid

Name of product: Candle-Powered Pyramid

Units: About 1,500

Importer: Gardener’s Supply, Burlington, Vt.

Hazard: The candle holder placement on the base of the carousels is too close to the structure, allowing the candle flame to come in contact and ignite different parts of the carousel, including the fans, trees and deer, posing a fire hazard.

Incidents/Injuries: CPSC and Gardener’s Supply have received three reports of the Candle-Powered Pyramid catching on fire. No injuries have been reported.

Description: The recalled candle carousels are made of yellow pine and stainless steel and measure about 9 inches in diameter by 13 inches high. The candle measures about 4 inches high. The candle carousels generate heat which rotate the fan blade and can cause the center platform to spin. The carousel is made of wood with cutouts of trees and deer.

Sold at: Gardener’s Supply stores in Burlington and Williston, Vt., Gardener’s Supply catalog, and at www.gardeners.com from September 2008 through November 2008 for about $30.
