Units affected: About 255,000 (In addition, about eight were sold in Canada)
Where it was sold: Stores nationwide, including Kohl's, Bed Bath & Beyond and ACE Hardware, and online at Vornado.com and Amazon.com from August 2013 through May 2026 for between $40 and $50.

What's the hazard?
The recalled heater's fan blade can detach from the motor shaft, which can cause the fan to slow or stop, leading to overheating and melting of the enclosure and internal parts. Melted internal parts can ignite and breach the enclosure if the thermal cut off or fuse does not timely activate, posing a fire hazard.
