Plain-English summary

Premier Kitchen Products is recalling approximately 19,000 Sharper Image and Frigidaire mandoline slicers sold in the United States and about 230 in Canada. The recall is due to a hazard where the small blades in the julienne slicer attachment can separate from the plastic assembly, posing a laceration risk to users.

The recalled slicers are non-electric food preparation items used to slice and julienne vegetables. They feature a clear plastic container, two blade attachments (one large-blade slicer and one small-blade julienne slicer), and a plastic knob component. The Sharper Image model (12SP1006) is light green, while the Frigidaire model (12EP203) is blue. The firm has received four reports of the small blades separating during food preparation, but no injuries have been reported.

These slicers were sold at various retailers including Beall's Outlet, Christmas Tree Shops, dd's Discounts, HomeGoods, HomeSense, Kohl's, Macy's Backstage, Marshall's, National Stores/Fallas, Ross, Target, and TJ Maxx stores nationwide and online from May 2017 through April 2018 for between $13 and $20. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled slicers and contact Premier Kitchen Products for instructions on how to receive a refund in the form of a $15 gift card.
