AstroAI is recalling about 249,100 of its 4-Liter/6-Can minifridges because the electrical switch can short circuit, creating fire and burn hazards. There have been at least 70 reports of these units smoking, burning, melting, or catching fire, including two incidents that caused more than $360,000 in property damage. The recalled fridges were sold in black, white, blue, and pink between June 2019 and June 2022. Consumers should immediately stop using the fridge and contact AstroAI for a free replacement.
The internal electrical switch in the minifridges can short circuit, causing the unit to smoke, melt, or ignite. This defect has resulted in extensive property damage and poses a direct risk of fire and serious burn injuries to consumers.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled minifridges and contact AstroAI for a free replacement minifridge. To receive a replacement minifridge, consumers should send a photo of the recalled minifridge, showing the model number and serial number, with "Recalled" written on the minifridge in permanent marker to AstroAI by email at recall@astroai.com or through the online portal at https://www.astroai.com/product-recall. Consumers should dispose of the recalled minifridges in accordance with state and local waste disposal procedures.
Serial numbers are nine digits long and located on the bottom or middle-right of the label on the back of the fridge.
