Summary

Approximately 2.5 million Gree-manufactured dehumidifiers sold under brand names such as Frigidaire, Kenmore, GE, and Soleus Air have been recalled. These units can overheat, smoke, and catch fire, leading to serious burn risks and property damage. There have been more than 2,000 reports of overheating and 450 reported fires resulting in over $19 million in property damage. The affected units were sold at major retailers like Home Depot, Lowe's, Walmart, and Sears between January 2005 and August 2013 for between $110 and $400. Consumers should immediately stop using these products and contact Gree for a full refund.

Risk

Internal components within the dehumidifiers can overheat during operation, causing the plastic housing to smoke and catch fire. This poses a significant risk of house fires and severe burn injuries to occupants.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately unplug and stop using your dehumidifier if it matches any of the brand names, model numbers, or date ranges listed in this recall.
  2. Identify your unit by checking the front for the brand name (Danby, De'Longhi, Fedders, Fellini, Frigidaire, GE, Gree, Kenmore, Norpole, Premiere, Seabreeze, SoleusAir, or SuperClima) and the pint capacity.
  3. Locate the model number and date code on the sticker found on the back, front, or side of the unit to confirm it is part of the recall list (e.g., Frigidaire models FDB30R1, FDL50S1, or GE models ADER30LN, AHW65LM).
  4. Check specific date ranges for certain brands, such as Frigidaire units dated 01/07 through 09/08, GE units dated 01/08 through 12/10, or Kenmore units dated 2012-04 through 2012-09.
  5. Contact Gree toll-free at 866-853-2802 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit www.greeusa.com and click on 'Recall' to request a full refund.
