Dolan Northwest recalls Burien floor lamps with faulty on/off switches that can melt, causing shock or fire. Affected lamps have model 1117 and were made between Nov 2010 and Sept 2012.
The on/off foot switch on the lamps can fail and melt, resulting in shock and fire hazards.
Dolan Northwest is recalling Burien floor lamps that have a faulty on/off switch which can melt and cause shock or fire. If you own one of these lamps, you should stop using it immediately and return it for a repair.
The on/off foot switch can fail and melt, creating a risk of electric shock or fire. This happens because the switch is not securely attached and can become damaged over time, especially when the lamp is moved or exposed to moisture.
Owners of Burien floor lamps with model number 1117 and manufactured between November 2010 and September 2012 are affected. People who use these lamps near water or in areas where they could be knocked over are at higher risk.
Check for model number 1117 on a label under the base. The lamps were made between November 2010 and September 2012 and have white glass shades with four light sockets.
Immediately unplug the lamp and stop using it to avoid shock or fire hazards.
Take the lamp to the store where you bought it for a free repair with a new switch.
If you bought the lamp online, contact Dolan Northwest directly for a replacement lamp.
Consumers should immediately stop using and unplug the recalled lamp and return it to the store for a repair. The store will replace the on/off foot switch with a new plug and dimmer. Consumers who purchased the lamps online should contact Dolan NW for a replacement lamp.
