Five-Light Floor Lamps
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Big Lots is recalling Classic Quarters Five Light Floor Lamps due to two safety hazards. The wiring for the lamp's light sockets can become exposed, creating a risk of electric shock. Additionally, when consumers use the recommended standard 40 watt light bulbs, the excessive heat generated can melt the double plastic shades covering the bulbs. The recalled lamps are about five feet tall with a gunmetal or chrome colored metal pole and five adjustable lights on flexible metal tubes, each with dark or multi-colored plastic shades. These lamps use standard incandescent or CFL bulbs and can be identified by the model number "G-1843-5" on a label under the base, or by SKU numbers 612007239, 612007829, or 612008982 in the instructions. Lamps using candelabra bulbs (model "G-1844-5B" with SKU 612009036 or 612009037) are not affected.
According to the recall, consumers should immediately stop using the affected lamps and return them to a Big Lots store for a full refund.
