Approximately 560,000 units of potentially defective Black+Decker electric vacuum blower and mulchers in the U.S. are being recalled due to a defect that could cause injuries to intended users, a September 13 article of cpsc.gov reported.
According to the recall, if the fan cover suddenly detaches, the appliance may cause laceration injuries to users. The Maryland-based company and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) were notified of four incidents involving the recalled products that resulted in laceration injuries to fingers. Black+Decker will address the problem by repairing the units for free. Individuals who own the recalled blowers were advised to refrain from use and contact Black+Decker for a free repair kit.
