Canada recalls four products over fire and burn hazards

Health Canada recalled four products sold in Canada because they may cause fires or burns.

The products include a Baby Brezza sterilizer dryer, Bose battery packs and Newdery power banks.

The sterilizer can overheat, Bose battery packs may become unsafe as they age, and the power banks could ignite or explode.

The recalls cover thousands of items, including more than 35,000 Bose battery packs sold in Canada.

Twenty overheating or melting incidents were reported for the Baby Brezza sterilizer, but no injuries were reported in Canada for the products described.

Consumers should stop using affected items and check their model or serial numbers against Health Canada’s notices.

Replacement or refund options vary by product: Baby Brezza and Bose offer replacements, while affected Newdery power bank buyers were refunded through Amazon.ca.
