Shop LC Electric Space Heaters Recalled Due to Fire and Burn Hazards

Shop LC is recalling about 4,500 personal electric space heaters that can overheat, posing fire and burn hazards. Consumers should stop using them immediately and return the product for a refund.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The source explicitly states that Shop LC received two reports of overheating but "no injuries have been reported." The hazard is real (overheat-related fire and burn risk), but the theoretical nature of the harm with no actual incidents reported places this as a precautionary recall under the rubric.
