The recall notice reads: "The product presents a risk of fire. The product’s fuse does not meet the requirements of the relevant standard. This means the fuse can fail leading to the plug overheating or igniting."

"If you purchased one of these products, please discontinue use immediately and discard the product. You may wish to contact the eBay seller to see if there are any remedies available to you. This can be done via your user account on eBay," the notice reads.
A recall has also been issued by the CCPC for the Magic Do – Tiger Zhou Finger Paints sold on the Amazon platform.
