Summary

Hawthorne Hydroponics is recalling approximately 60,000 Grower's Edge Vaporizers, including the yellow aluminum Deluxe model and the stainless steel Commercial model. These vaporizers can overheat, causing materials to spill and pose burn risks or ignite nearby surfaces, with 11 reports of overheating or fire and one report of property damage already received. Consumers should immediately stop using these units and return them to the original place of purchase for a full refund in the form of store credit.
