The company has received 24 reports of the appliances melting or glass doors shattering, including six instances where the air fryers caught on fire. Affected models include NS-AF34D2, NS-AF5DSS2, NS-AF5MSS2, NS-AF8DBD2, NS-AF10DBK2, and NS-AF10DSS2, which were sold at Best Buy stores and online at BestBuy.com and eBay.

The air fryers can overheat, causing handles to melt or break, while the air fryer ovens can overheat causing the glass door to shatter. These failures pose serious fire, burn, and laceration hazards to anyone nearby.
