Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Amazon is recalling a ceiling fan over safety fears Credit: The Office for Product Safety and Standards say the China-made product has poor insulation and gaps between insulation and wiring. Over time, the insulation could wear down, exposing live wires and giving the owner an electric shock. Any further imports of the hot weather essential have been blocked by border forces. The ceiling fan comes with two different product codes which identify it - FBA15JYLVF9HU000040, X0027BDFWD. The mounted ceiling fan comes with a "high" risk level. Typically with product recalls, you can return an item to the seller and get a full refund. However, it is not clear if Amazon is offering a refund to any customers who bought the A-Faction856 fan. If you have bought one, it is worth contacting Amazon UK's customer service team.

OTHER RECALLED PRODUCTS Locisne pulled its Hamster Plush Toy from store shelves recently - with concerns it could present a serious risk to life.

The pies were mistakenly labelled with a use-by date of June 24, 2026, instead of June 24, 2025 – a full year too late. The popular food brand warned that eating the pies past the intended expiry date would be unsafe.

Popular kitchen gadget banned and destroyed over 'serious' risk of explosion
A kitchen gadget sold on Amazon has been banned and will be destroyed over a 'serious' risk of fire and explosion. The UK government has issued a warning that the machine used to dehydrate foods should not be used, and any imports will be intercepted. In a recall notice, the Office for Product Safety and Standards said: 'The product presents a serious risk of fire as the fuse has insufficient granular filler to operate safely under fault conditions. 'The import has been rejected at the border and destroyed.' Their product safety notice relates to the Moongiantgo Food Dehydrator, which can be used to make dried fruit snacks, among other things.

The Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS) has now banned all imports of the Moongiantgo Food Dehydrator. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 There are serious fire risks with the product, and it has been pulled from UK sales Credit: The entire product appeared to be riddled with issues, including faults with its fuse. On the OPSS website, it states: "The product is a serious risk of fire as the fuse has insufficient granular filler to ensure safe operation under fault conditions. "If the product experiences an electrical fault whilst in use, it may catch fire or explode." According to the body, it does not meet the requirements of Electrical Equipment Safety Regulations 2016 or the Plugs and Sockets Safety Regulations 1994. The product was used to dehydrate various food items such as fruits, herbs, vegetables and meats. A similar item listed on Amazon, which meets the regulation standards, says it is fitted with a high-powered rear fan which delivers "consistent airflow throughout". The description reads: "A sleek digital control panel gives you full command of the dehydration process. "Set the temperature anywhere between 30°C and 90°C, and use the programmable timer for up to 24 hours of continuous drying." Another Amazon product was recalled over serious risk of injuries. The Soppycid Reusable Water Balloons have been removed from the online marketplace following the safety concern. Amazon's Affordable Foldable Tiny Home: Space-Saving Design and Features Revealed The toy was available in a pack of six on Amazon for £18. "The product presents a serious risk of injuries because it contains accessible magnets with a magnetic flux index that exceeds the acceptable level," the product's risk description reads. "Small, high-powered magnetic products can easily be swallowed and, when ingested, have the potential to cause serious internal injuries within the gastrointestinal tract. "The product also requires improvement to marking, labelling and documentation." Another children's toy was removed from the website over fears it could cause serious injury. The swimming float was also urgently recalled over fears it could cause serious injury or even drowning. The Joycat Baby Float, sold on Amazon, has been flagged as a safety risk. Authorities found that its attachable canopy could lift the float from the water in windy conditions, putting children in danger. The alert was issued in the UK following a border inspection. The blue and yellow sea-themed swim seat, intended for babies and toddlers, poses a 'serious risk of injuries', according to the Product Safety Report. If the float becomes airborne, a child could be thrown out and suffer an impact injury or drown. 2 The gadget can be used to dehydrate a variety of foods Credit:
