NOTTINGHAM, MD—TJX is recalling about 7,900 resin and medium-density fiberboard menorahs with inserts for nine candles.
The menorahs were sold at Marshalls, HomeGoods, and Homesense stores nationwide from November 2021 through January 2022 for between $8 and $15.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission says the resin and medium-density fiberboard menorahs can burn or catch fire when holding lit candles, posing a fire hazard.
The items were sold in the following shapes: llama, brontosaurus, stegosaurus, T-Rex, castle, rainbow, rainbow platform, and emojis. The menorahs were sold with a white hangtag with an image of a blue and silver menorah and the following text: “FESTIVE LIGHTS HANUKKAH MENORAH.” One of the following style numbers is printed on the label on the bottom of the menorahs: 262933, 263407, 263417, 262950, 856166, 856168, 856179, 856182, 856189, 856192, 856262, 856266.
