If you have an air fryer in your kitchen, take caution the next time you plug it in.
A recall has been issued for nearly 12,000 Magic Chef air fryers that were sold since 2018.
The appliance can overheat, posing fire and burn hazards, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
No incidents or injuries have been reported, but consumers should immediately stop using the recalled air fryers.
The recall involves the Magic Chef Digital Air Fryer oven with model numbers MCAF56DB (black) and MCAF56DW (white).
"Magic Chef" is printed on the top of the fryers and the rating label on the bottom has the brand name "Magic Chef" along with the model number. The air fryers measure about 13 inches by 15 inches by 14 inches.
The air fryers were sold online at Newair.com, Walmart.com, Wayfair.com, Amazon.com, and Target.com from July 2018 through September 2020 for between $115 to $138.
To receive a refund, consumers need to provide a picture of the rating label to Newair.com. The refund will be in the form of a store credit for $50 or the amount on the purchase receipt if higher. No receipt is needed to get the $50 credit.
