CPSC, Whirlpool Announce Recall of KitchenAid® Toasters
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
An interruption of power to the toaster can cause the heating elements to unexpectedly self-start and could ignite any flammable items left on top of the unit, posing a fire hazard.
What to do
Consumers should immediately unplug and stop using the toaster and contact KitchenAid® to arrange for a free replacement. Consumers should not return the toaster to the retailer where it was purchased, as retailers are not prepared to take them back.
