What was recalled

The Glade® Extra Outlet Scented Oil electric air fresheners come in two fragrances, Sky Breeze™ and Mystical Garden™. The air fresheners have a unique rotating plug-thru outlet, which allows other electrical devices to be used in the same outlet as the plug-in. The rotating outlet says "15 Amps Max" on the front and has a yellow disk on the back. The Extra Outlet Scented Oil units have a model number "SCJ079" on the back. No other products, sold under the Glade® PlugIns® brand names, are part of the recall.

Hazard

These Extra Outlet PlugIns® may have been misassembled during manufacture, which could pose a risk of fire.

Injuries

SC Johnson has received five reports of misassembly and no reports of injury or property damage.

Where it was sold

  • Grocery and retail stores nationwide sold the air fresheners, between January 2002 and April 2002, for between $4 and $5.
