Power strip product recalled over shock risk

Posted: Updated:

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with Lush Life, has announced a voluntary recall of about 6000 Lush Life power strips.  The power strips were sold at Burlington Coat Factory stores, The Container Stores and other retail stores nationwide from July 2010 through March 2012.

The power strips have undersized wiring which poses a risk of shock to consumers. In addition, the wiring and plastic strip fail to meet fire resistance safety standards, posing a fire hazard to consumers.

The recall involves four designs of power strips: leopard, rose, skull and zebra.  The model numbers, which can be found on the six-outlet power strips, are as follows:

  • 12256
  • 12257
  • 22563
  • 22575


Consumers should immediately stop using the power strips and return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.

For additional information, please contact the firm toll-free at (888) 223-2628 between 8:30 a.m. through 6 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's web site at www.burlingtoncoatfactory.com
