Empower Brands, LLC, have received reports the PowerXLTM Stuffed Wafflizers Models ESWM02 and ESWM03 have the potential to hurt consumers,

We are issuing this recall notice because we have received reports that under certain conditions some of the PowerXLTM Stuffed Wafflizers Models ESWM02 and ESWM03 can expel food product due to pressure buildup during the cooking process, particularly if overfilled, posing a burn risk.

The voluntary recall affects all PowerXLTM Stuffed Wafflizers Models ESWM02 and ESWM03 sold in New York with all date codes affected.

If you register your waffle maker for the Empower Brands, LLC, recall the company will send consumers a free latch adaptor. The adaptor is designed to release the latch when a preset internal pressure level is reached. The company says that the latch will resolve the potential issue.
