A widely used blender is being recalled due to concerns it may ignite.
Attention all blender users! If you own a BlendJet BlendJet2 portable blender in one of the various colors available, listen up. There has been a national recall for this product due to concerns that the metal blades may break and potentially cause a fire. This is definitely something you don't want happening in your kitchen!

According to Product Safety Australia, the affected products have serial numbers ranging from 5201000000 to 5542999999. If you're not sure if your blender falls within this range, you can find the serial number printed on the bottom of the base. It's always better to be safe than sorry, so please take a moment to check.

If your blender is included in the recall, it's important to stop using it immediately. Don't worry, Blendjet has provided a serial number checking tool on their website for your convenience. Simply enter your serial number and it will let you know if your unit is affected. Easy peasy.

The recall notice states, "The metal blades may break while the blender is in use" and "The blender may overheat and catch fire when charging or while in use." Yikes. This could potentially lead to serious injuries if broken blade pieces end up in your food or drinks. We definitely don't want that. Injuries have already occurred, so it's important to take this recall seriously.

But wait, there's more. The recall notice also warns of the risk of serious burn injuries or property damage if the blender overheats or short circuits and catches fire. Again, this is not something to take lightly. There have already been fires and associated burn injuries and property damage reported. Let's make sure we prevent any more from happening.

If you're wondering where this blender was sold, the answer is almost everywhere. It was available nationally, internationally, and online at various retailers such as The Good Guys, Kitchen Warehouse, Mini-Max, Camera Electronic, Wanderlust, Myer, Bi Rite, Harvey Norman, JB HiFi, Campus and Co, and Costco. That's a lot of places, so it's important to spread the word and make sure everyone is aware of this recall.

To give you an idea of the timeframe, the recalled blender was available for sale from October 1, 2020, to November 1, 2023. That's a pretty long window, so if you've purchased this blender within that time, you'll definitely want to check if yours is affected.

Energy Safe Victoria is responsible for this recall and they are currently working on a remedy. They have stated, "We will update this notice when a remedy is available." So keep an eye out for any updates from Blendjet. In the meantime, consumers have the right to a remedy in accordance with consumer guarantees.
