Target is recalling nearly 5 million candles following reports of dozens of the products cracking while burning, injuring at least six people.

One lot of Threshold glass candles was sold at Target locations and Target.com between August 2019 and March 2023, costing between $3 and $20, according to the federal Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) in a notice. Target also confirmed the recall on its website.
