Cosori is recalling more than two million air fryers sold in the United States, Canada and Mexico because the power cord can overheat and pose a fire risk.
Health Canada announced the recall Thursday. The agency said consumers should stop using air fryers immediately.
“As of February 2023, the company has received 205 reports worldwide including 56 reports in Canada of air fryers catching fire, burning, melting, overheating and smoking,” Health Canada said in the recall.
“There were 23 reports of minor property damage worldwide and 10 reports of minor and minor injuries, including four reports in Canada.”
Of the two million products affected, 252,828 units were sold in Canada, Health Canada said.
On sale between March 2019 and December 2022
The recall covers some model numbers in the 3.7-quart and 5.8-quart sizes. All units have the Cosori brand name on the front.
The air fryer is on sale from March 2019 to December 2022, Health Canada said. They are sold at Best Buy, Target and Home Depot stores and online at Amazon, Walmart and other retailers.
Consumers should contact Cosori at recall.cosori.com to receive a free air fryer or other products. Consumers must provide contact information and a photo of the recalled unit. Receipts are not required.
The Cosori brand is owned by Vesync, a company based in Shenzen, China. Vesync has received 205 reports of air fryers burning, burning, melting, overheating or smoking.
