QVC Oven Gloves Recalled Over Reports of Burn Injuries: CPSC
More than 1 million oven gloves sold exclusively through QVC distributors have been recalled, following nearly 100 reports of burn injuries.
Federal safety officials are warning consumers to immediately stop using QVC Temp-tations Oven Gloves, indicating that the products may fail to provide adequate heat protection, posing a burn and injury hazard.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced the QVC oven glove recall on December 5, following at least 162 reports of problems where users felt the heat from items they were touching while wearing the gloves, including 92 incidents that resulted in burn injuries.
The recall impacts 1.1 million pairs of QVC Temp-tations Oven Gloves sold in an array of colors such as blue, yellow, and red, as well as various patterns, including floral and summer shell prints. Each glove features a label stitched inside that reads “Temp-tations by Tara.”

Learn MoreThe recalled QVC oven gloves are made of cotton and elastane, and were marketed for use while cooking, allowing consumers to pick up hot items and prevent the heat from reaching their hands. However, the CPSC notice indicates they have insufficient heat protection.
QVC sold the oven mitts in both small and large sizes, which were available for purchase as single pairs, in sets of two, or in sets accompanied by drying mats or trivets. They were sold with the following model numbers: K51459, K76398, K47973, K48879, K85322, K96004, K92603, K308719, K309220, K309388 and K309516.
The recalled oven mitts were manufactured in China and imported to QVC Inc. where they were sold online through QVC.com, QVC televised shows and QVC digital shopping platforms from August 2018 through August 2024 for $4 to $13 per pair or $14 to $26 per bundled set.
Due to the growing number of injuries reported from consumers, the CPSC is urging consumers to immediately stop using the products and contact QVC for a refund.
