CE North America of Miami, Fla., is recalling about 28,000 KUL fan heaters in the U.S. and Canada.
The fan heaters can overheat, posing a fire hazard.
The company has received four reports of the fan heaters overheating and catching fire. No injuries have been reported.
This recall involves KUL small, black portable fan heaters. The KUL logo is printed on the front bottom of the heaters next to the power dial. The fan heater measures about 9 inches long by 5 inches wide by 10.5 inches tall, and weighs about two pounds. An adhesive label is on the bottom of the heater with model number “KU39229” and “Date: 0515” in the lower right-hand corner.
The fans, manufactured in China, were sold exclusively at Bed, Bath & Beyond stores nationwide and online at www.bedbathandbeyond.com from August 2015, through October 2015, for about $20.
