Manufacturer
1 recall in our database name QVC, of West Chester, Pa. as the manufacturing or recalling firm.
Of the 1 recalls from QVC, of West Chester, Pa. we have scored against our rubric, 0 (0%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 1 (100%) are Severe.
The manufacturer string comes from the agency’s own source notice — for FDA recalls, the “recalling firm” field; for NHTSA recalls, the vehicle manufacturer; for CPSC recalls, the firm-of-record on the joint press release. A single corporate family can appear under multiple manufacturer strings as agency notices aren’t standardized on a canonical name. If you don’t see recalls you expect, try a parent-company search or a broader full-text search.
Severity scores below are computed from the agency’s classification and the recall text, never from manufacturer behaviour or history. Many manufacturers issue routine corrective actions (software updates, labelling corrections) that are correctly scored low — having recalls on this list isn’t inherently a quality signal.
QVC is recalling about 14,000 metallic spinning candle holders sold in November 2010 because they can catch fire. The company has reported 19 ignition incidents, including two minor burns and one puncture wound.
