Amazon recalls popular massage product over fears it could EXPLODE as shoppers urged to return item immediately
AMAZON has recalled a popular massage product over fears one of its parts could explode – and shoppers have been urged to return the item immediately.
Brits have been warned that the three pin adaptor which connects to the popular neck massage tool could pose a serious risk of fire or electric shock.
The Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS) recalled the item because it lacks “proper safety features.”
Invospar’s Massagers have proven a popular choice among shoppers looking for a cheap alternative to a day at the spa.
In a report, OPSS said the 3-pin adaptor should be returned over concerns of “poor quality” connections.
This could cause the wire to short circuit, resulting in the gadget catching fire, electrocuting someone, or even exploding.
The affected products were made in China and sold between 2017 and 2021.
Invospar Massagers are sold on Amazon anywhere between £30 and £45.
It’s been confirmed that the massage part of the tool is unaffected.
Anyone with a faulty device should contact support@invospa.com to nab a free replacement power supply.
They will need to provide an order ID or photos of the adaptor.
The Sun has approached Amazon for comment.
This comes after an urgent warning was issued by the supplier just a few days ago over concerns a heater posed a “high risk of fire”.
The High Efficiency Fan Heater was previously sold on Amazon and would likely have been picked up by those looking for cost effective ways to stay warm.
As temperatures have dropped in recent months, many have focused their attention on cheap and efficient tech to heat their homes.
A report issued last week by the Office for Product Safety and Standards revealed the heater presented a “high risk” if inadequately earthed.
Not only was the product rejected at the border, the online marketplace removed the listing.
