Sakar is recalling about 199,000 Vivitar Blender Bottles because the blades can continue to spin even when the bottle is detached from the base. These clear plastic blenders have white bases and tops and were sold exclusively at Target stores and Target.com between December 2024 and January 2025 for approximately $5. One report has been received of the blades remaining engaged after the bottle was removed, though no injuries have been reported. Consumers should stop using the product and return it to the manufacturer for a full refund.
The blender's blades can continue to operate when the bottle is not attached to the base, posing a serious laceration hazard to consumers. One incident has been reported where the blades remained engaged when the bottle was removed.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled blender bottles and contact Sakar for instructions on how to receive a full refund in the form of a $5 Target gift card or a check, and a pre-paid return shipping label. The recalled blender must be returned to Sakar to receive the refund. Proof of purchase (receipt) is not required. Consumers should not return the recalled units to Target stores. Sakar is contacting all known purchasers.
Identifiers are printed on a sticker located under the white plastic base and also stamped on the underside of the base.
