“The cooktop’s burners can remain on after use, even after being turned to the ‘off’ position, due to misaligned burner knob stems and fractured burner knob components that can exist in units manufactured between July 2022 and September 2022, posing a burn hazard to consumers,” the CPSC writes in their report.
The flawed products were sold at home improvement and appliance stores across the U.S., including Best Buy, Lowe’s and The Home Depot from July 2022 through 2023 for between $1,110 and $1,220.Check the recallfor specific UPC codes and lot numbers affected.
