Plain-English summary

Innovage LLC is recalling approximately 300,000 Discovery Kids Animated Marine and Safari Lamps. The recall involves floor and table lamps featuring rotating films with marine or safari scenes. The words "Discovery Kids" are printed on the front top-left corner of the product. The recalled products have an 11-digit batch number beginning with either 584894 or 10128 and a model number of 1628626, 1642433, 1641522, 1641523, 1645729, or 1645853. Batch numbers are imprinted in the plastic underneath the lamps and on the bottom of the packaging, while model numbers are on stickers underneath the lamps and on the bottom of the packaging near the barcode.

The lamps pose a fire and burn hazard because the placement of internal wires near the circuit board can cause electrical short-circuiting and sparking. Innovage has received 11 reports of short circuiting, including three reports of lamps catching fire, which led to property damage. No injuries have been reported.

The lamps were sold at Bed Bath & Beyond, Bonton, JCPenney, Kohls, and Toys "R" Us stores nationwide, as well as online retailers Amazon, Ideeli, JCPenney, Kohls, Macy's, and Overstock, from June 2010 through March 2012 for between $10 and $20. Consumers should immediately stop using the lamps and contact Innovage for instructions on how to obtain a full refund.
