Hazards Identified

  • The steamers can expel hot water from the steam nozzle during use, posing a serious burn hazard to consumers.

Consumer Remedy

  • Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled steamers and visit recall.pursteam.com to submit a Recall Request. As part of the request process, consumers will be required to provide their contact information and then cut the steamer's cord and upload a photo of the steamer with its cut cord, in order to receive a full refund. Consumers should keep their steamer until receiving their refund, as some consumers may be asked to return their steamer to Aterian with a prepaid shipping mailer.
