More than 64,000 light fixtures sold exclusively at Home Depot have been recalled after reports of the light shades detaching and falling, posing laceration and burn hazards.

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, Home Depot has received more than 100 reports of the shades falling, including one report of a person who was cut on the head and burned on the arm and another person who was cut on the leg by a falling shade.

The recall involves Home Decorators Collection 3-Light and 4-Light Comotti Vanity Fixtures. The light fixture styles have 3 or 4 chrome-colored glass shades with clear acrylic ball strands that surround a halogen light. The wall plate is made of reflective stainless steel.

They were sold at Home Depot stores nationwide and online at www.homedepot.com from December 2014 through March 2017 for between $95 and $110.

Consumers should immediately contact Design Solutions International at 800-388-6141 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET or via email at customersupport@dsilighting.com to receive free replacement light shades and replacement instructions.
