Camp Nod Lantern Nightlights Recalled for Shock and Fire Hazard

Plain-English summary

The Land of Nod is recalling approximately 9,700 "Camp Nod" electric lantern nightlights. These red or blue cylindrical metal lanterns, which measure about 9.75 inches in height and 4 inches in diameter, were sold exclusively at The Land of Nod stores in Illinois and Washington, as well as through the company's catalog and website, from September 2004 through October 2010. The nightlights were priced between $30 and $35.

The recall is being issued because an electrical short circuit can occur in the nightlight's wiring, posing a risk of fire or shock to consumers. The company has received 16 reports of incidents, including one report of minor shock to a woman and her son, and one report of minor property damage to a wall, bed, and blanket near the lantern's power source.

Consumers should immediately stop using the nightlight and return it to The Land of Nod to receive a merchandise credit for the purchase price. For additional information, consumers can contact The Land of Nod at (800) 933-9904 between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, visit www.landofnod.com, or email [email protected].
