In a fast-track recall announced by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Vornado Air LLC is recalling about 7,780 VH2 Whole Room Heaters due to electric shock and fire hazards.  

The power cord can partially detach from the heater enclosure, which can lead to cord damage over time, posing electric shock and fire hazards.  

The recall involves Vornado VH2 Whole Room Heaters with a “JUL24” or “AUG24” date code and “TYPE VH2” printed on the silver rating label on the underside of the heater. The heaters are off-white and have thermostatic temperature control, automatic or continuous fan operation, and two heat settings. “Vornado” with a red “V” behind it is printed on the front of the unit. Only units with a “JUL24” or “AUG24” date code are included in this recall.  

The recalled products were sold online at Amazon.com from August 2024 through October 2024 for about $90.  

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled heaters and contact Vornado to confirm that their product is part of the recall and receive instructions on how to receive a free replacement heater.
