    CPSC announces space heater recall

    Consumer Reports News: December 07, 2007 03:31 PM

    The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission on December 6, 2007, announced the recall of about 20,000 oscillating ceramic heaters because of a fire hazard. The heaters can overheat, smoke, or ignite. Read "With space heaters, safety is essential" for more information on heater safety and to watch our CRTV report.

    The 1,500-watt heater (shown), made in China and imported by Collins International Co., Ltd., of Fair Lawn, New Jersey, was sold for about $25 at Menards stores nationwide from September 2006 through March 2007. The heater has a white-plastic housing with the name Heat-Wave on the top. You'll find the model number (EB38005) and control number (ETL 3090262) on the bottom of the heater.

    If you own a recalled heater, stop using it immediately and return it to a Menards store for a full refund. For more information, call Collins (866-877-1889) from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, or go to the company's Web Site.
