Target recalls floor lamps

The Target Corporation of Minneapolis, MN has announced the recall of approximately 25,000 two-bulb floor lamps manufactured in China.

According to the company, the floor lamp can short when a standard one-way bulb is fully tightened in the lamp’s three-way socket, creating the potential for a short circuit and posing a shock and fire hazard to consumers. Target says that it has six reports of lamps short circuiting, resulting in fires and minor property damage, and two consumers who experienced electric shock.

The recalled lamps were sold at Target stores nationwide and through Target.com from September 2012 through May 2013 for about $70.
