Toasters Recalled by Hamilton Beach Due to Fire Hazard

CPSC · 12057 · published 2011-12-15

CPSC campaign 12057

Hazard

When the toasters are first plugged into the outlets, the heating element can be energized although the toaster lifter is in the up or off position, which can pose a fire hazard if the toaster is near flammable items.

Remedy

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled toasters and contact the firm to receive instructions on how to obtain a free replacement toaster.
