Optimus Recalls Portable Electric Heaters Due to Fire Hazard
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
The heater design can fail to prevent ignition of nearby combustible materials that come in contact with the unit, posing a fire hazard to the consumer.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled heaters and contact Optimus to request a free replacement heater. Consumers have the option of a comparable ceramic heater or new model quartz radiant heater, model H-5510, which will be available after August 2013.
