AliExpress is recalling approximately 80 Guangmei 3858 foldable travel hair dryers sold on AliExpress.com between April 2022 and January 2025. These hair dryers lack an immersion protection device, which is a critical safety feature required by federal regulations. Consumers should immediately stop using the hair dryers and contact AliExpress to arrange a full refund. No incidents or injuries have been reported to date.
If the hair dryer falls into water while plugged in, it can cause death or serious injury due to electrocution or electric shock because it lacks a required safety device designed to cut off power.
Consumers should immediately unplug and stop using the recalled hair dryers and contact AliExpress to receive a full refund. Consumers will be asked to destroy the hair dryer by cutting the cord and disposing of it. Consumers must send a photo of the destroyed hair dryer to us_product_recall@aliexpress.com or by replying to the recall email sent by AliExpress. AliExpress is contacting all known purchasers directly.
