Description

Hazard
The wax from the candles can drip and ignite the potpourri. Additionally, when the candles are in close proximity, they generate a significant amount of heat. Each of these hazards could lead to a fire, which could cause burn injuries to consumers.
Remedy
Consumers should stop using the candle sets immediately and return them to any Wal-Mart store for a full refund.
Incidents and injuries
Wal-Mart has received no reports of incidents. This recall is being conducted to prevent the possibility of injuries.
