Safe Step Walk-In Tubs Recalled by Oliver Fiberglass Products and NuWhirl Systems Due to Burn Hazard (Recall Alert)

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

The tub's heated seat can get stuck in the "on" position. If a towel or other item is covering the seat of an empty tub, the seat can overheat, posing a burn hazard to consumers.

What to do

Consumers should not put a towel or other item on the seat and contact Oliver Fiberglass for new instructions and warning stickers to place on the tubs. Oliver Fiberglass is contacting tub owners directly.
