Hazard

The heating element can be accessed with minimal force, leading to electric shocks. Moreover, due to the size of the plug face, the user can receive an electric shock, while unplugging, or plugging in, the plug into the socket. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the European standard 60335-2.
