Details
Black and pink electric hair dryer brush and styler with black power supply cord and plug. Supplied in black cardboard packaging with ‘One Setp’ branding and white text reading ‘Hair Dryer and Styler’.
The product has been identified as presenting a risk of fire, burns and electric shock due to multiple safety defects. The product’s plug does not meet the dimensional requirements of the relevant standard, presenting an electric shock hazard when plugging it in, or pulling it out of a mains electrical socket.
The mains plug was also not fitted with a fuse link conforming to the relevant standard. Additionally, the mains supply cord was too thin, had excessive resistance and was protected by an incorrectly rated fuse link. The product also requires improvements to labelling, markings and instructions.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & Sockets (Safety) Regulations 1994.
What to do next
If you believe you have an affected product or a product similar in design to the recalled product, even if under a different brand, stop using it immediately and contact the retailer for further advice.
Electrical Safety First strongly recommends that anyone who discovers they have an electrical item that has been recalled should stop using it until it has been checked by the manufacturer.
