Handy Solutions Neck & Should: Folded heating pad risks burns and fire
Navajo recalls Handy Solutions Neck & Shoulders Heating Pad model 25607 due to risk of burns if folded while in use. High temperatures may cause melting or fire. Stop using immediately.
If heating pad is folded while in use, the power density increases in the folded area causing excessive temperatures, which can also be caused by placing pad under the body, then the high limit device is unable to sense the higher temperature so power is not terminated. May cause a burning smell prior to melting/burning potentially causing burns to persons and property.
