Gals, are you one of 1,025,000 women who own a glue gun? Or one of 21,900 in Canada? Or do you have a friend or family member who is one of those “crafters”?
RECALL: The Crafter’s Square Glue Gun, sold nationwide at Dollar Tree, Dollar General, and online at www.dollartree.com can malfunction when plugged in, posing fire and burn hazards.
The plastic glue gun is black with an orange trigger and tip. The glue guns have a silver UL listed label located above the handle with “GLUE GUN” and “XY-15302” printed on the label.
