The Container Stores, Inc. of Coppell, TX has recalled about 7200 of the Lush Life brand power strips manufactured in China.
According to the company, the power strips have undersized wiring, and the wiring and plastic strip fail to meet the requirements for fire resistance, thereby posing a fire hazard to consumers. The Container Store has not received any reports of incidents related to the defective power strips, but has initiated the recall to minimize the risk of future incidents.
The recalled power strips, which include the Pop Power Strip in Scroll, Dot and Zebra designs, were sold at Container Stores nationwide and through the company’s website from October 2011 through December 2011 for about $15.
