A look at the recalled Vornado VH2 Whole Room Heater.
Vornado has recalled thousands of space heaters over potential shock and fire risk.
The company issued the recall for about 7,780 VH2 Whole Room Heaters on Thursday, Jan. 16, after it was discovered that the power cord can partially detach from the heater enclosure. The issue can lead to cord damage over time, posing electric shock and fire hazards, according to the recall.
The recalled heaters were sold exclusively on Amazon from August 2024 through October 2024 for about $90. They have a “JUL24” or “AUG24” date code and “TYPE VH2” printed on the silver rating label on the underside of the heater.
