If you own a Vornado handheld garment steamer, particularly these models: SF-425, SF-435, SF-440, SF-445, SF-447, VS-410, or SI-428, it's time to pay attention. These models have been recalled by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) due to a serious burn hazard.

The concern? The steamers can malfunction, spraying or spitting hot water from the nozzle. This has already resulted in 23 reported burn injuries, and it's simply not worth the risk.

What to do if you have a recalled steamer:

  1. Stop using it immediately. Put it somewhere safe where you won't be tempted to grab it.
  2. Contact Vornado for a free replacement. You can visit their website (https://www.vornado.com/recalls/hhgs) or call them at 1-800-234-0604 for more information.
  3. Report any incidents to the CPSC. Even if you haven't been burned, reporting your experience can help prevent future injuries.
