Reason for Recall
The recalled products may contain bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is an environmental organism found widely in soil and water. People with weakened immune systems or external medical devices who are exposed to Pseudomonas aeruginosa face a risk of serious infection that may require medical treatment. The bacteria can enter the body if inhaled, through the eyes, or through a break in the skin. People with healthy immune systems are usually not affected by the bacteria.

About the CPSC
This recall was conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), which oversees the safety of roughly 15,000 categories of consumer products — from electronics and furniture to toys, clothing, and small appliances. The CPSC works with manufacturers on voluntary recalls and can order mandatory recalls under the Consumer Product Safety Act. Consumers can report hazardous products and track all current recalls at CPSC.gov. Injuries involving recalled products can also be reported at SaferProducts.gov.
