Bunnings is recalling their nailer due to concerns about its safety.

Attention all Bunnings customers! If you're the proud owner of a Ryobi model Airwave 2-in-1 Brad Nailer/Stapler, listen up. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has issued a recall for this handy tool due to a potential malfunction that could cause it to discharge unintentionally. And we all know that's not something you want happening while you're in the middle of a project!

This multi-tool, which has been sold at Bunnings stores across the country, comes equipped with a mechanical interlock feature that is supposed to prevent any accidental firing of the nailer. However, it has been discovered that this safety device can sometimes get stuck, causing the nail or staple to discharge through the trigger alone instead of the usual 2-step process. And as you can imagine, this poses a risk of laceration injuries.

So what's the deal with this malfunction? Well, it seems that the affected product, which is identified as RA-NBS1832-S, was manufactured between October 2021 and March 2024. If you own one of these, you can check the side of the nail magazine for a date code between Week 43 of 2021 and Week 9 of 2024. If your product falls within this range, it is recommended that you stop using it immediately.

But don't worry, Bunnings and Ryobi have got your back. You can either return the product to any Bunnings store for a full refund or get in touch with the Ryobi customer service team for assistance. Your safety is their top priority, so don't hesitate to take action and get your hands on a replacement tool. After all, a project can wait, but your well-being can't!

In other news, have you noticed the recent hot streak the Earth has been on? Well, apparently Australia has been the odd one out with its unusually cold weather. And in more cautionary tales, a single mother is warning others about the dangers of tapping into their super. It may seem like a quick fix in times of financial need, but it can have serious consequences down the line. Stay informed, folks!
