Hazard

The product presents a serious risk of injuries as it is possible to remove the lid while the product is attached to the motor unit and under power. This means consumers can access the blades while they are moving. The product is also fitted with a counterfeit and underweight fuse. A correctly rated fuse is required to ensure the safe operation of the plug under fault conditions, and its absence could lead to the plug overheating and/or exploding. Improvements are also required to product documentation and marking. The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & Sockets etc (Safety) Regulations 1994.

Remedy

The import has been rejected at the border and destroyed. The listings have been removed by the online marketplace (eBay and AliExpress)
