The agency’s classification

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).
The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II. According to the severity rubric, an FDA Class II recall with potential for significant injury (metal pieces) maps to a score of 4 (Severe), as it exceeds the criteria for High (which typically applies to theoretical risks or specific pathogens without reported injury) and fits the 'significant injury' criterion for Severe.
