VFAUOSIT Kitchen Faucets Recalled for Lead Leaching Into Water
VFAUOSIT kitchen faucets (model 06BNV) sold on Amazon leach lead and other contaminants into water at levels harmful to infants and young children. Consumers should stop using the faucets immediately.
What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: The faucets leach lead, a high-risk contaminant with documented neurological harm to infants and young children. Although no illnesses or injuries have been reported, the hazard is not theoretical—testing confirmed contamination—and the at-risk population is particularly vulnerable.
Plain-English summary
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled VFAUOSIT kitchen faucets, model number 06BNV. These are brushed nickel, single-handle kitchen faucets with a pull-down detachable spray and single-hole installation. About 29,000 units were sold online through Amazon.com by seller Whisper08 (operated by Jiang men cai nuo wei yu you xian gong si of China) from January 2024 through May 2025 for approximately $40 each.

Consumers should immediately stop using these faucets. Until the faucets can be replaced, consumers may run water for 15 seconds before use to reduce contaminant levels. To obtain a refund and arrange disposal, consumers should contact Whisper08 at [email protected] with their order number and a photograph of disposal.
