Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Vornado Air is recalling approximately 7,780 VH2 Whole Room Heaters because the power cord can partially detach from the device. These off-white heaters feature a red "V" logo and were sold exclusively through Amazon.com. The detachment defect can damage the cord over time, creating a serious risk of fire or electric shock. While no incidents or injuries have been reported, consumers should stop using these heaters immediately and contact Vornado for a free replacement.

Risk

The power cord on the heater can partially pull away from the unit's enclosure. This detachment can lead to wire damage, posing hazards for both electric shock to the user and the potential for a fire to start.
